Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for July 25, 2018

I guess he does love the little troublemaker.

Better hurry before your son gets one of the tigers killed and turned into an internet meme.

Wow! All of a sudden he gets intelligence and caring for his child. Go figure.

“Mommy, Mommy, why would pirates hide their treasure in the zoo?”

“Shut up and search the tiger pit!”

Does he yell first or grab Calvin first? If he yells, Calvin might fall in.

No hurry, Dad.

Actually, you should hurry, Dad. You want to have those real tigers to start learning Calvinball.

Are you running to save Calvin or watch him play with the tigers?

Good to see dads caring side when the chips are down.

Dad probably is equally worried whether tiger might hurt Calvin, or the other way round.

Hurry Dad, you have to save those poor unsuspecting tigers!

I don’t think the acorn fell far from the tree here.

A light dawns for Dad. Better hurry.

Calvin would give the tigers indigestion.

Yeah, Dad does have a soft spot for Calvin. Run like the wind!

Hobbes will reappear and dissuade Calvin from going over the wall.

“Nah, we wouldn’t do that, would he? Um, yes, he would!”

Run dad. Hobbes may not eat Calvin, but other tigers might.

He’s a good dad and it’s a good comic strip. Judge not and wait for the outcome. Calvin did not become the inventive and playful mind on his own.

Love the smile in panel 3.

This carton made me laught more then cry over the years it’s a great great classic cartoon of its time

I think he looks a lot like Calvin when he runs. Think it’s the tongue sticking out?

I know what happens next

This is what it means to be a great Dad… knowing his kid well enough to RUN to the tiger pit.
