Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for November 27, 2019

I’m glad Calvin didn’t burn up on re-entry.

When I was a kid, I assumed Calvin landed in a black hole when he fell off the earth, but now I know that’s supposed to be the Milky Way galaxy.

Did he develop his own atmosphere when he grew big enough, hence how he can breathe?

what a bizarre afternoon Calvin’s having

His house got bigger as well!

Calvin’s own big bang theory.

You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension: a dimension of sound; a dimension of sight; a dimension of mind.

He goes straight from the size of the Earth to the size of the galaxy. My guess is that this was where there were supposed to be more strips that Watterson chickened out of including.

Looks like the door from the opening of The Twilight Zone.

Seems Dr. Strange teleport ed Calvin for End Game.

On the other side lies homework!

All of this occurring, of course, within the single atom of a rose.

Does he go back to normal size or does he go to a parallel universe where his new giant size is normal?

I sense a journey into the unknown realms of “homework” is beckoning.

Oh, look! A door! This will simplify everything!!!

Yes, that small item called “homework”!!!

“Knock, knock,knocking on heaven’s door…”

no more “magic mushroom pizza’s”

This would make a good report for school, How Homework Warped The Space/Time Continuum For Me.

Through that door everything will be normal again—-I hope!

Milky way for Calvin!

Makes me think of the starchild from 2001

Submitted for your approval, a kid that has totally lost it. Today on The Twilight Zone.

One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small …

On the other side of the door will be Mom saying “Did you finish your homework?”.

Earth to Calvin—-Come in Calvin.

Through the Cosmic Looking Glass. Calvin should relate to Alice.

I’ll bet there’s homework behind that door.

Take the curtain!

“Oh my God, it’s full of stars!!”

No matter what, it all comes back to the homework that needs to be done.

Cue Also Sprach Zarthustra…

This the week when Watterson was on vacation.

Dang- he only made it outside of the Milky Way Galaxy- I was really hoping he’d keep going so we could see more…

Watterson is becoming a minimalist as Thanksgiving approaches. grin

looks like he’ll be home for thanksgiving, and the homework still isn’t done.

In Calvin’s case, not likely to be one of the doors of perception…

Cue: 2001: A Space Odyssey theme

Calvin in Wonderland.

One of the joys I find in comics — without the context of the last few days’ strips, this would be completely incomprehensible, and thus worthy of posting on its own for endless contemplation.

… Up ahead at the sign-post, make a left… you are entering…The Twilight Zone…

Escape from madness?

In Through The Out Door

The endocosm to the exocosm. The microcosm to the macrocosm.

Help! Mr. Wizard!

Now we’re getting metaphysical.

Technically calvin is about to prove bosons.

Anyone remember “Harold and the Purple Crayon?”

Wow, three wordless strips in a row

Whew! When the flux capacitor and the warp defibrillator interfere, sending the impulse engines into overdrive (which is where Calvin spends most of his time) who knows what might eventuate?
