Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for February 20, 2018

Smart move, Dad, with Calvin around.

Even if Dad had a gun, he wouldn’t have any silver bullets anyway.

You have a squirt gun, if you’re thinking of shooting.

Maybe if you loaded the transmogrifier with water it might work

Did it ever occur to you Calvin, to just behave yourself so Rosalyn won’t have “deal” with you? I didn’t think so.

You just know Calvin isn’t listening now.

Someone in the comments yesterday invoked the stake and mallet idea.

That explains why she only appears after dark

Mom and dad aren’t paying attention either! Their six-year old is trying to figure out how to kill his babysitter!

Quick Calvin, get to the kitchen and grab the garlic.

Waiting on the episode where Susie and Rosalyn tag team Calvin.

Ever wonder why there are never any strips where Calvin ages?It’s because no one survives the electric chair!

Good thing Dad doesn’t have any guns, or this story arc might have taken a particularly dark turn.

A Super Soaker with holy water, Calvin! Holler if ya hear me!

“Resistance is futile!”

Slip something in her drink…

Everyone has a mallet and stake – go outside and find a little stick and a big stick. Take a knife from the kitchen and sharpen the little stick on one end. Voila – a mallet and stake.

Watch out for her gaze, though – it can be mesmerizing!

Good god man, I cannot tell you the number of times I was told what Calvin was told in the last frame. I STILL get told that at 49!
