Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for May 14, 2019

First thing on the agenda for the new club should be learn the definition of “vaguely.”

The Hobbes fan club for the win!

What’s so secret about a fan club devoted to a tiger named after a philosopher named Thomas? (“The Sinister Icy Black Hand of Death Club”… what a mouthful.)

Ozzy Osbourne should be an honorary member of “The sinister icy black hand of death club”

You creep me out at times Calvin. But most of the time, you’re good to be around

Today you would either be in Gitmo labeled as a terrorist for that Club or on Trump’s payroll as his new fixer.

If it’s that secret, what does it matter what it’s called?

“Sinister Icy Black Hand of Death” would be a nice name for a death metal band/song.

The Black Hand (Italian: Mano Nera) was a type of Italian and Italian-American extortion racket in the early 20th Century. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Hand_(extortion)

Come on, Calvin; you know you want to join the “Hobbes Fan Club”!

How about the Heman Woman Haters Club? Oh, that’s already been done.

Calvin is right, I got chills just thinking about it.

How about Sinister Hobbes Society? Actually, just calling it Calvin’s club makes it a bit sinister. Have you seen his show men?

The name has been used, Calvin.

Black Hand, byname of Ujedinjenje Ili Smrt (Serbo-Croation: Union or Death), secret Serbian society of the early 20th century that used terrorist methods to promote the liberation of Serbs outside Serbia from Habsburg or Ottoman rule and was instrumental in planning the assassination of the Austrian archduke Franz Ferdinand (1914)

I love Hobbes’ expression and posture in panel 2. It conveys so well his penchant for tweaking Calvin.

Calvin, stick to your roots. Call it GROSS or something equally pre-teen boyish!

If you are already the Icy Black Hand of Death, calling yourself “Sinister” is just redundant. Unless the members are both left-handed.

how about SICKO! (Sinister Ice Cold Kid Organization)

Back to school you’re a criminal, truant!

SIBHD Club?

Why not ‘The Federalist Society’?

And for Hobbes….why do cats always make everything about Them?

Calvin’s problem with the Hobbes Fan Club is the babes.

Is this leading to the founding of G.R.O.S.S. (Get Rid Of Slimy girlS)?

A fan club is NOT secret!

Vaguely?

The Mysterious Vaguely Ominous and Chilling Hobbes Fan Club.

I like Hobbes idea of keeping it simple. A boy of 6 years can have this vocab only in Bill’s cartoon.

It seems that boys like anything creepy sounding or violent.

Can someone send me a link to a Hobbes fan club signup sheet
