Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
I can tell Calvin âgotâ the jest from Mom due to his eyebrows, but Hobbs expression in panel 2 could go a couple ways. Either itâs âGood one, Mom!â (& heâs trying not to smile) or hes just trying to figure it out.
He was the blue-light special according to his dad. âWay cheaper, but almost as good.â LOL. (I told that to my youngest when he asked where he came from. He thought that was COOL!)
Nowadays âgiftedâ is even being applied to kids who are âchallengedâ. I guess the idea is to mitigate bias. Well folks, how well do we all think it worked? Would honestly like to see your comments.

A âGIFTED child that she wouldnât have PAID FORâ? That sounds like a joke Calvinâs father would have cracked, truth to tell. :/

Must be an (old) parent joke. I remember my mother saying this to me in the 1960s. LOL

So this explains why Calvin appeared on all those â90s car decals, peeing on competitorsâ logos. Bad, indeed.

According to dad they did pay for him. He was a blue light special at K-Mart.
