Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for July 04, 2020

Risking life by going through a wormhole and photographing dangerous dinosaurs: Yes.

Pulling weeds: No

Tell National Geographic that a meteor destroyed your good camera.

Douthinkhesawthroughus….Rex….

“Pulling weeds builds character!” (Never gets old, does it?)

KNOW YOUR WORTH, CALVIN! Don’t let da man exploit you.

And then all the little Calvins of the world grew up.

That’s almost $5 in today’s fake money. Lazy kid!

No kid wants to work ,especially for1.00!,,

Pulling weeds is at least $10, right?

A man (boy) has to live by a set of principles!!

Good morning everyone, I guess I’m wrong, he does have an overactive imagination.

Dad missed an opportunity on that one, should have said that an alien plant form has invaded the front walk and it can only be removed by an intrepid six year old with a ferocious tiger by his side with reward money to be paid upon completion.

Happy 4th Of July to my American friends.

I can’t say that I blame Calvin on the weeds. Not fun.

I pulled weeds yesterday, but nobody paid me a dollar.

badly (adverb)

Step Two in The Dad Manual: “No? Then you’ll be pulling them for free, before I ground you…”

Said the occupy Seattle protestor…

Well if the dad thinks that, then how would that explain the photo with Hobbes in the foreground and the large dinosaurs behind him as mentioned in Thursday’s strip?

Pretend the weeds are giant, prehistoric…um, weeds?

Surely Dad will sell your photos and get rich.

Millions of bucks are better than one.

Bearing in mind that a dollar went further 30 years ago.

Calvin, there are fun ways to get rid of weeds. Got any lighter fluid and matches? Got any fireworks?

A dollar for the weed seems a better option.
