Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for October 22, 2015

If Calvin got the leaves, do the Aliens own the Earth?

The Aliens decided they want no part of this place.

They were directed to the real leader and have become Beliebers. OMG, did I just write that? Please give me leave to go!

I believe Calvin, don’t you?

That’s his story and he’s sticking with it.

It was Santa, I said it!!

Hopefully the aliens did a better job than Calvin would have.

Spoiler alert! Suzie will be impressed, Ms. Wormwood will give Calvin an A, the aliens will return & try to take over, but C & H will prevail. You’ll see.

So, the alien spaceship brings Calvin a notebook……and leaves……

Nope, it’s an empty notebook.

Durned cynics…get in line behind Dad, then.

And I thought my children had vivid imaginations when they were that age.

For those who raised kids; don’t the parents always help their children work on their leaf collections? We always did.

Save your breath, Calvin; he doesn’t want to hear it! And besides which, the aliens owned the Earth all along anyway!

Barnhardt: One thing, Mr. Klaatu: suppose this group should reject your proposals. What is the alternative?

Klaatu: I’m afraid there is no alternative. In such a case, the planet Earth would have to be… eliminated

Barnhardt: Such power exists?

Klaatu: I assure you, such power exists.

I thought the meek were going to inherit the Earth.

Wow. Does Dad look scary or what?

Haha.

Calvin will win a prize for handing in the most unique leaf collection in class !

Calvin should not have tromped down the stairs so exuberantly, and Dad might never have noticed.

No shoes your wearing? When you get back in bed, your going to alien germs on your feet.

If you are referring to Farewell to the Master written by Harry Bates, yes… many years ago.

We are getting to the end of Calvin and Hobbes.
