Goodness, I don’t know what Calvin’s fussing about. All Hobbes did was help Calvin remove his shoes at the front door in an expedient manner. How else is he supposed to remove both shoes at one time?
Calvin plans to open with a ruckus and escalate to a kerfuffle! Hopefully he won’t have to open a can of ‘Whoop A$$’. BTW, Whoop A$$ was the name of an energy drink.
Even for a daily strip, the artwork in every single panel is so impressive, detailed and funny. Watterson is definitely one of the great comic strip artists of all time.

I don’t suppose it would help if Calvin stopped announcing that he’s home?

For a split second, Calvin probably thought Hobbes was about to knock him back to the principal’s office.

I love when Hobbes jumps Calvin. I love to see his little shoes fly off. Love this cartoon.

Cal’s imaginary ‘reception’ by Hobbes is his counter to being in school all day and missing Hobbes. Imagination can make a cloudy day brighter.

Calvin’s right. There will be some ruckus once his parents learns how “swell” Calvin’s first day of school was…

The Third Panel reminds Our Be❤️ed Count that the Bengals Opening Day is Sunday. Opening in Orange. The Count can’t wait!

This probably looks a little better than “Fight Club” where the narrator is beating himself up.

Hobbes to the rescue! He instinctively knew that Calvin needed a giant kerfuffle to get him out of his post-schoolday funk.

It’s alright when you dish it out, but you can’t take it, correct Calvin.

Hobbes just lays around when Calvin isn’t there. He gets bored.

Watterson’s drawings are extremely animated and awesome. Each panel is like a live action film clip on pause.

If Calvin can take on a “Man-eating” tiger with his bare hands, why does he have any issue with his playground nemesis, Moe?

Hobbes is probably thinking that it’s nice to get back into a routine.
