    We’re in the second month of the second year of the 2010s. I hope that by 2015, we actually have the power-lace Nikes and hoverboards like in Back to the Future Part II.

    Proof of the future? The internet.

    As a kid in the 60s, I couldn’t wait for The Future of the 21st Century that we were told to expect: moon colonies, orbital hotels, space tourism, personal robots, and of course, flying cars.

    Now that I’m middle aged and its the second decade of the 21st century, out of all that, we have…space tourism, IF you have a quarter million dollars to spare.

    Hmmph. I want my youth back.

    Maybe Calvin will be one to make the creative breakthrough on one or more of these developments!

    Sadly, it’s 2016, and so far it’s more violence than science.

    It’s 2018, and at least we have personal robots.

    This is so sad. Alexa, play “Despacito”.

    It’s been over 30 years, yet we still don’t have anything the comic mentions.

    It’s almost 2021, and people are still driving cars from the 1970’s

    I was wondering what Calvin would have said about a new millennium, although I’m glad this comic never saw the early 2000s

    Look on the bright side, Calvin. With the new decade will come a new environmental cartoon that you and Hobbes will no doubt particularly enjoy: Captain Planet and the Planeteers! Your parents would benefit from watching it, too. As Captain Planet will say, “The POWER is YOURS!”.
