Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for November 30, 2018

Lawyer up and take the 5th.

First your mom. Then immediately, God!!

Or maybe clean it up. Simple right?

You misread the rules, Calvin. You’re not supposed to make a home ruin.

Mom, God … At that age, what’s the difference? Creator, provider, judge ….

Hide that baseball bat.

Deep in the woods.

Mom always says, “Don’t play ball in the house.”

Face it Calvin, yer out!!!

God first; only He can check Mom’s wrath!!

Wow never seen this one before, such detail…

The two of them are going to team up to punish you for this one!

Fantastic art today! I love the details.

and it only took 3 minutes, can you imagine if mom was gone for 5?

In my house I brook no pleas and make no bargains.

‘Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds’.

That’s quite the panel! Imagine it in 360.

I want to know how Calvin got the cover off the electric outlet with just a bat…

Quite the game of Calvinball!

Don’t worry the president will pardon you

Oh, such a horrible mess!!

Looks like maybe the bat was used in ways unintended.

Trust Hobbes to see the real danger.

Oh. My. Methinks Calvin won’t be able to sit for a month!

You’re about to find out which one is real, buddy.

I have the feeling that Dad will have a few things to add to the conversation as well when he gets home from the Office…

Easier to ask for forgiveness than permission, I guess.

Deny, deny, deny.

Too bad you used your “horrible little Venusian did it” ruse already. Mom would never go for that twice.

It could be worse. See today’s Close to Home: https://www.gocomics.com/closetohome/2018/11/30?ct=v&cti=45054

@dave.glass1960, I was just going to say the same thing: Never saw this one before.

They left Calvin at home ALONE?!?! What were they thinking?!?

Mom you need to take Calvin to play area he can bounce around, use that energy. Wow!Calvin did great destruction.

As Russell Peter would say: “somebody gonna get a hurt real bad!”

Thing 1 and Thing 2 should leave the building. Now.

Mistakes were made.

Ask not for whom the bell toles….it toles for thee, Calvin!

That must have been fun to draw.

Calvin, there goes your allowance for the next ten years.

I read something awhile back that Ford pardoned Nixon.

It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Does God plea bargain?

To the extent there is a God, yes.In other words, no.

When your Mom see this mess it will be Hell.

Such wonderful art. Though I must confess, I looked for paw prints :)

This is why my mother never let us play baseball in the house. We had to stick to basketball and hockey.

This might be the only C&H one-panel weekday strip ever.

How did this kid live to grow up?…

Not sure if the overturned chair makes any sense or not. Upright it would have been facing the wall.

To err is Calvin. To forgive is not Mom’s policy!

If I were his dad I’d send Calvin in a boarding school hold by Catholic “penguins” . The worst , for my personal experience

I can see the sign around Calvin’s neck now. $0.03 or best offer.

HOW DID HE DO THAT?!
