school here in Clark County, Washington begins this week (even once had a conversation with a donor at my Salvation Army trailer about her grandson wanting to keep his unused water balloons)
Calvin, paybacks should always happen at a later time, not right after you’ve been attacked. Wait until Hobbes is napping or sleeping then hit him with the water balloon.

I have a feeling Mrs. Wormwood doesn’t feel the same way.

Maybe when he gets to school, he can learn how to fill water balloons.

This comic strip never ceases to amaze me nor make me laugh! A boy with an overactive imagination is an understatement!

That next to the last panel reminds me of the Coyote in Roadrunner cartoons when he realizes the trap failed and he is about to get it …. again!

I would always declare the last week before school, “No shirt. No school-like activities. No shoes.”

With imaginary friends like this, who needs enemies?

How dumb does Calvin have to be to always be outsmarted by a stuffed tiger?

Nice of Hobbes to give Calvin a “heads up!”

So, in reality, is Calvin throwing water balloons at himself?

I have to say, a Calvin & Hobbes strip generally satisfies my need to see Karmic Justice enacted

There’s a reason that you should check your ammo before the big fight. And a reason that “super soakers” are so popular…

Bill Watterson, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE bring back this comic treasure……

Beautiful version of the old Coyote v. Roadrunner constructs. Watterson was the best!

When you remember that he’s handling both sides of the fight, you really have to wonder.

No fun in going to school when you have such friends around.
