Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for September 23, 1988

Wait a second, Mars’ atmosphere is primarily carbon dioxide and the temperature is around -70 F. They would be dead in milliseconds.

hey… shutup…

Because that’s the only impossible thing to happen up to this point in the arc? I mean, travelling to mars in a wagon in the speed of a couple of hours. Or having that wagon break earths gravity by going over a little ramp. This is clearly only in his imagination.

No, wehrler is right. It all makes sense up to now, but this just totally breaks the suspension of disbelief.*(Poker face twitches and then LB breaks into guffaws of laughter.)

Calvin’s imaginations make us feel like we’re with him even though it could never happen in the real life. I say enjoy the ride. :)

Let the spoiling begin.

“We’ve got a whole new comic to ourselves. Brand new and unspoiled. Brand new and unspoiled. No people. No pollution. Nothing but rugged natural beauty as far as the eye can see.”

.

“That’s not your quibble over there is it?”

Imagination knows no boundaries..and bad ass comics like this one don’t need dissecting..

No littering Calvin,you don’t want to start any bad habits this soon.

“Wow! Mars is AMAZING!”(cuts to Calvin in a straitjacket) “Mars is amazing! Mars is amAAAziiiiing!”

A Mars bar?
