Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for August 27, 2017

Sorry, Mom, Calvin will not be performing an encore.

Oh boy this is the series where Calvin secedes!

Maybe in a few days he’ll actually put it in his mouth. Gettin closer Calvin

Kale ! ! I’m with you Cal

Calvin is SUCH a drama queen!

Calvin is starting to get their hint.

His encore is to eat it.

They might pack your bags for you.

Any of the comics in which BW set out to just put together a bunch of drawings of Calvin’s face in various expressions of (fill in the blank) are a treasure. He was a terrific artist as well as writer, and he gave Calvin a rubber face.

The creators of Disney Channel’s “The Weekenders” must have been inspired by Calvin’s mom’s cooking when they showed Tino’s mom’s cooking!

Squeeze lemon juice on it.

Whatever that is I know I don’t want any! I feel for you, Calvin!

I bet Hobbes will try it and like it, just to spite Calvin.

This always reminds me of Curly and the Oyster Stew bit.

I just noticed that Mom and Dad have wine glasses. They’re going to need a refill or 4 before dinner is over.

It’s just about how my eight-year-old grandson reacted last night when we said he had to eat some salad before he could have more cornbread.

What is that green glop, anyway? Looks like it might be Brussel sprouts aspic, or something equally unappealing.

They look like mushy peas but they are a British food.

(And I love em’!)

A great Artist is never appreciated in his own home.
