Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for March 16, 2018

A nickel went was worth much more back then.

Let’s face it: as well as an imaginary friend, Hobbes can also be an imaginary enemy.

When is the part where they try to bounce on their tails?

Today, he would cost a million, because he says so.

Looks like the cat (secret) is out of the bag.

Calvin cost more than a nickel. His parents have been paying the price ever since.

A nickle sounds high, we found our kids in out back in the cabbage patch

Hobbes is really laying it on thick.

With friends like these….

One thing Hobbes cannot do is destroy Calvin’s robust self-esteem!

According to Calvin’s dad, Calvin was the cheap model from K-mart, instead of the more expensive Sears kid kit.

I was even cheaper, love of parents is not for sale!!

I think a nickel is too much for Calvin.

That would’ve been enough to buy some psychiatric help in some places. It would’ve been a better deal.

Hobbes can really pour it on.

It’s true Calvin, tigers won’t share their territories. Insults however, are a different matter all together.

So, they bought him from Lucy???

Hobbes, you’re having way too much fun.

It wouldn’t surprise me if Calvin’s parents paid a penny for him at the flea market and the vendor gave them a twenty dollar bill, back in change.

I’m sure that Calvin came about because his Dad DIDN’T have a nickle, when he needed one, for something that prevents Calvins from becoming.

And now he’s just a bad penny… ☺

Bill Watterson is a genius that is sorely missed.I’ve heard he still does cartoons, but throws them away.

They paid money for Calvin?

“My mom gave me a nickel to buy a pickle; I didn’t buy a picklle, I bought some chewing gum. Some chew, chew, chewing chew gum, How I love chewing gum…..”
