Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for October 06, 2021

“I am not an animal! I am a cartoon character!”

Sure, Calvin.

We all know Calvin did this on purpose.

So he got frozen into a ghost. I guess he got his wish!

There was a cartoon character who always puts a bag over his face in shame of something his father had done. I do not remember the name.

If you keep making that face you’ll end up looking like your dad.

that or Calvin decided he wanted to practice for Halloween…

Another good reason why he doesn’t have a brother or sister.

Calvin, if you meet Leo in Scary Gary, that face will be the last one you make before he eats you.

That bag would be fine for concealing what Calvin’s face is gonna look like after Dad is through with him!!

Dad’s calling Mom a liar

Gotta love young children and their affinity for grossing everyone around them out.;-D

Your face will only freeze the way you make it if the wind changes.

Just let him get on with it, it’s character building……..

Calvin ALWAYS wins, Dad. Get used to it!

Reminds me of a girl I once knew named “Butter Face”. ;)

Dad will not take it seriously

looks like bacon bits and mash potatoes for dinner tonight, big switch from the Salmon!

You know, as an uncle, I would just let him keep it that way for as long as he can. I’d bet him a dollar he couldn’t make it stay that way for 2 hours and then watch him. Hell, smiling is exhausting after a few minutes.

Heh, Calvin pretending to be the Elephant Man could be a story arc in itself!

Unless Calvin had seen the movie, he’d be too young to know about The Elephant Man.

I have met a couple of women who faces “froze” into a dazzling smile – could be worse.

I’ll never again think raising of my children was difficult.

Dad: “Okay, that IS an improvement.”

I am impressed that 6 (?) year old Calvin would know who the Elephant Man or what he looked like.

How thoughtful of Calvin to hide his grotesque face during dinner

Tis true my form is something odd, But blaming me is blaming God;Could I create myself anew, I would not fail in pleasing you.If I could reach from pole to pole; Or grasp the ocean with a span,I would be measured by the soul; The mind’s the standard of the man.

Calvin is fully willing to face the consequences!

It’s Calvin’s revenge for all the whoppers his Dad has told him. Like how they got him at K-Mart.

A good old fashion spanking will change his expression and attitude.

Panel 3, Dad’s face, very funny.

As we’ve learned from Covid, it’s hard to eat wearing a mask.

There goes dad’s rethinking on having another younger member in the family.
