Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for January 12, 2019

Next time, make the snowman wear a blindfold.

Anyone remember that Far Side comic starring William Tell’s less fortunate son Warren, who had an oversized head?

A lot of people complained about Gary Larson making fun of hydrocephalus victims, which really annoyed him.

Put the snowman on a skateboard so it can move.

make the snowman a little shorter, Calvin, so you can really whack the snowball off its noggin

Don’t lose your head over it, Calvin.

They all do that Calvin. You can never trust a snowman, even the ones you build.

Aim too low I’m guessing?

I’m guessing he hit the wrong balls (about waist high).

Shades of Ed Ames.

Who knew Calvin was a lefty?

No wonder the snowman isn’t smiling in panel one…

Another senseless snowman tragedy.

I saved the picture of the cute little snowman in panel #1; I’ll put in with my collection of snow goons and other Calvin winter stuff.

Safer to throw snowballs at the snowman than Susie.

Thus the birth of the man bun.

That throw was a little low. Quick throw another one to even things up!

William Ain’tGonnaTellNobody…

I’m not surprised. All we trouble making genius types are Souhpaws!!!!!

He missed because he closed his eyes when he threw the snowball, just like a girl.

Curious minds need to see what happened: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0L5QC9ZJkM8

Keep your eyes clear and keen, like a falcon on the wing. Keep your heart strong and stady, like your hand upon the string. Never bow to a tyrant, while your people are laid low. For the higest head may fall to the man who weilds the bow.

Shoulda used a snow arrow.

If you don’t want him to flinch throw the snowballs from behind him.

That snowman’s a little flaky!

You never hear about Walter Tell. He was William’s cross-eyed cousin. Same challenge: Sad result…

Yes, snowmen can not only flinch but also duck. Calvin aim is unflinching.
