Ahhh, yes. We’ve just gone through the “your room stinks” thing with our 13 year old daughter. My wife, who is awesome concerning teen girl issues, straightened out that deodorant problem pretty quickly. Thanks, Jen!
My bathroom smelled awful this morning, but that had less to do with monsters and more to do with the toilet getting backed up and overflowing. Apparently something got flushed down my upstairs neighbor’s toilet and it got stuck in the sewer line.

The monsters must be on an exclusive Calvin only diet.

This was another comic in this story Bill used as a direct metaphor for his difficulties with the strip.

What do you expect? Why would a monster eat garbage when there is a nice, juicy, six-year-old to eat?

I thought Calvin broke wind—or maybe it was Hobbes.

I put down a bottle of holy water and this night they were more quiet than on other days.

That would make sense, if it made any sense.

The monsters have good taste in food.

Cal’s idea of recycling

That looks rather like what I would find under my sons bed.

Mom, be glad that Calvin didn’t follow through with his burning bed idea of yesterday!

Sometimes you deal with the monster under the bed by cutting off the bed’s legs…

Put the mattress on the floor. Problem solved.

Calvin is the monster.

Looks like Mom has a big cleaning to do and Calvin a big spanking coming.

I don’t think this is part of anything Calvinistic or certified Kosher.

Jeeze, Calvin, isn’t it obvious to blame Hobbes?! You never know what a tiger is going to eat and keep under the bed for snack time.

So, that’s the case! Monday (and much of next week) the story of the monsters and garbage will continue.

Hmmm, sounds like you’ve got noisy cockroaches, Calvin.
