Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 31, 2016

Dad knows his audience.

This is going to take a lot of nurturing.

Mmm, tiger butter on my pancakes.

Looks like Dad’s great at ad libs.

Well, that’s where the original story ended… minus the hunter I mean – just eating the Little Red Riding Hood.

Nope, the real original story did end with the eating of Red Riding Hood. The later version has the hunter slicing open the wolf.

See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Red_Riding_Hood, Charles Perrault.

I used to read my kids “bednight stories.” That was their word.

That’s uncalled for and out and out racist!!!!!!

It will certainly be a “happy ending,” in the middle of the night.

The 7th panel stood out to me the most.

Abrupt much, Calvin?

Dad, you get an “A” on your report today.

Black Jumbo and Black Mumbo. What’s your point?

You are so correct, Paul! For the record, I believe All Lives Matter…

I hope today’s comments have a happy ending!

I need a good cry today.

sniff sniff sniff; Okay, maybe it’s just my watery eyes and runny nose as a result of this dang cold…

My Mom read that book to me when I was little. Loved looking at the pictures.. hadn’t thought of this story for some time…

“Joken” … get over yourself. Some people are always trying to make a big deal out of anything.. IT’S A CHILDREN’S STORY". I’m sure you don’t think Dumbo can really fly…..

… unlike the Hunter in the story, Dad shoots/Dad scores!(Dad knows his ‘target’ audience). :P

New High Score!

Best Calvin strip ever. Oh, and Hobbes, never forget Hobbes.
