Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for September 14, 2023

Robin

Storm. I know that because 5 down is ‘synchronization’.

And now crossword puzzles are probably ruined. Nice going, Calvin.

Raven

From heron in, all of the rules are suspended

I’m sure that’s a great way to get extra points in Scrabble.

I wish I could say this has never occurred to me… and not be lying…

Copy the puzzle and make it really large to make enough room for the letters

Must be one of these super cryptic ones :)

I think you mean Yeller. Yeller-bellied Sapsucker, of the Des Moines Sapsuckers.

Brain.

Abbreviate it Calvin, Y B S S K

I’m pretty sure it is laysan albatross.

Nevermore

You oughta see the Sunday NY Times puzzle!!

Cal, what do you do when there are 11 boxes, and your answer only has 3 letters?

Vireo.

Now what idiot would do that? LOL

Go for it, Calvin.

Cal is what one might call ultra adaptable.

He’ll MAKE it fit!

Maybe its F R O G

Calvin, try ‘’Roseate Spoonbill’’ that might work.

Nice. He does crossword puzzles like I play solitaire. Any way I want.

If you want a REAL challenging crossword puzzle, try the ones made by Merl Reagle. It’ll make you wonder what he was thinking.

If it was 6 letters, I would guess either “jaeger” or “cuckoo”. Thanks, Clifford Stoll.

Calvin never was one to pay much attention to math.

The idiocy isn’t on the side you think it is, Calvin…

Calvin doesn’t let crossword puzzles make HIM cross.

and when he gets a Rubik Cube, he’ll peel off the colors to put them elsewhere

I cannot believe how many forms left a one-half-inch space for your email address.

Sounds like a typical Thursday NY Times crossword, where they routinely use the “rebus”. And since today’s Thursday . . .

This is a GEM!

Probably uses a pen since he never makes a mistake and doesn’t have the time to resharpen his pencil.

Calvin will make any word fit ! LOL…. Love the look on Hobbes’s face in last panel.

I never work those not smart enough, I will do sear a word.

Egret

Just cram it in there, Calvin!

Calvin grew up to a communist democrat.

Hey, do you read on the computer or you use your phone?
