Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for June 27, 2011

Don’t like this one…

Leave Calvin alone!

Keep your friends close….keep your enemies closer…

The rude reality!

I’m surprised that Moe even knows what a spatula is!

Moe actually called him Calvin instead of Twinky? Where did Watterson get that insult from anyway?

Moe needs to go.

Cal you ’re Good friend but not A bout some 50 cents LeaVe O.KAY.

Hobbes needs to pounce on this kid!

Moe probably will use the 50 cents to go buy a Twinky.Personally, I’d rather be called a Twinky than have to eat one!

@VistaBill,But it’s not surprising that Calvin knows what a spatula is.He has been in many scrapes before.

I wouldn’t have paid it, Calvin.

Good Morning, Marg, Mike & ♠Lonewolf♠

He can borrow Garfield’s giant spatula — it should be big enough for Calvin!

Blackmail!!

hes a brute

Sure Moe, have you got change for a twenty?

Ignore him Calvin!

He looks like one of them fist punching bullies!

With enemies like Moe, who needs friends?

I’ll buy Watterson’s theory about guys like Moe spawning off of damp locker room floors.

Nowadays bullies are most definitely NOT in fashion. Most politically uncorrect. It does my heart good – I never thot the issue of bullying would be addressed.

Calvin needs to take lessons from Lio on how to handle bullies.

Wonder what happened to our grammer school bully???

With friends like Moe, who needs bullies, or criminals, or. . . .

If you got 50 offer him halve,then find a big guy and give him 1 dollar to wallop Moe, in the International world thats called peace brokering .

Unless the lightbulb gets switched on, Moe will eventually wind up working for Calvin.

Let’s move Mo[sic] to the Middle East & see how much he’d like playing that little game with one hand. . ..

I think that Moe grew up to be a campaign manager.

Actually they do – eventually. But that is waaaay down the pike. And if memory serves, Hobbes gets a word in edgewise too.

Calvin needs to learn the proper response to bullies: a finger in the eye, a knee in the groin, and a brick to the back of the head. Hey, it always worked for me!

I like how Calvin handles him after this—“Is your monosyllabic vocabulary the result of your berserk pituitary gland?” Long pause. Huh? “Isn’t he great, folks! Let’s give him a hand!”

Poor Calvin. The school’s all over him whenever he gets in trouble, but they apparently do nothing to stop Moe from bullying Calvin every chance he gets. That being said, it’s nice to read comics from a simpler, more innocent time. In real life, people would worry about a kid like Calvin (no human friends, lives in a fantasy world, bullied) bringing a gun to school. In this strip, though, all they have to worry about is Calvin bringing his stuffed tiger, the Avenging Furball of Doom, to teach Moe a lesson.

“You know what this is? It’s extortion” – Bird“Extortion is such an ugly word…true, but ugly” – Molly McGrath

All the bullies in our class mellowed with age. I’m friends or atleast we’ve reconciled our differences since high school. I had to work with a handful of them over the years making that a strange work environment.

only 50 cents

Calvin needs to befriend someone like a teacher who will be on his side the next time Moe threatens him, or, at the very least, a kid much larger and stronger than Moe who is loyal to Calvin and would defend him something fierce….generally this is the only way guys like Moe learn anything, if they do at all….

It could have been more, Calvin

a lot of people here saying Calvin should get a bigger boy to take on Moe. does anyone remember a very underrated comedy called “My Bodyguard” which starred Christopher Makepeace?

That certainly clarifies the question of health care.

Down with bullies!!!!! :-(

I like Calvin’s eyes on frame 3. :D

looks like Calvin has a new friend! :| :)

I’d like to know who the janitor is.

@mac47 Frazz is the janitor.

The Moes of this world can sometimes grow up to be real adult psychopaths. I’ve certainly met a few who had virtually no morals whatsoever, and were just in it for the power and glory. Everyone else was just collateral damage. A few were highly religious. That was theirj ustification. They were so superior, it didn’t matter what happened to you. I wonder if Moe will grow up to be somebody quite powerful in religion, or just a psychopath crimminal who doesn’t care about anyone but himself, not that the two career paths are very different in my experience?

It is really simple,. Take ONE beating. And then write Moe’s name on the wall in blood. He should get out in perhaps 6 years.

the bully look like h need more than 50 cents broke self
