Love this one! Last year on a day my family and I played “Monopoly” I couldn’t help but think of this bit! I also bet if Calvin found this “Miracle Monopoly Cheating Kit” in that National Lampoon magazine, he and Hobbes would use it in such a game! https://boardgamegeek.com/image/490655/fbeukema
Even your bank account did get the benefits of a computer scam, you wouldn’t hold it for long. Most banks track that sort of thing for their own liability.

I didn’t know Hobbes was a Nigerian prince.

We called it Monotony when I was a kid. It was a great way to kill time, but even at that age, I had better ways to use time.

I wonder if a GameStop chance card would have a chance to stop this game.

Interesting fourth wall break in this one. Who are they looking at in the last panel?

When it’s too cold outside to play Calvinball, go inside and play Calvinopoly!

Well there you go. If you want to win, or maybe just have more fun, take a chance. …and stack the deck.

Calvinopoly is way too much like real life as the the 1% has been playing it forever.

It’s kind of cute that they are always aware of the audience off to the front

Does Monopoly even have $5000?

When cartoon characters look out at their audience, as in the last panel, how do they see us? Do they see a cartoon version of their readers?

Back during the Beatles’ touring days, they use to spend long hours cooped in in hotel rooms. To pass the time, they played Monopoly with real money.

CHANCE CARD 2021. You bought GameStop at $4 a share and sold at the top of the market. Game over. You win.

Better hold on to the Get Out of Jail Free card Hobbes

There’s a “Chance” that this will devolve into a knuckle-duster… ☺

This is how my five-year-old granddaughter plays Monopoly and every other game.

It always goes like this:
Calvin: plays a game and changes the rules
Comment section: Hey, it’s just like Calvinball!

That also works with cue-cards for late night talk show hosts when discussing current events.

More realistic as well.

The next card says send the bank fraudster to jail and steal his $5,000.

I don’t think I ever actually played Monopoly the rules.

Sounds more to me like Hobbes got a Community Chest card.

A FEW dozen? There are only 12 hotels in Monopoly!
Also, the joke’s on them. Handing out that much cash will only prolong the length of the game.
