Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for March 02, 1993

Captain Marvel only had six letters to deal with. (And, no, they weren’t M-A-R-V-E-L.) A bonus point to anyone who can tell me what letters they were! And if anyone can say what they stood for, it’s an automatic “A”!

That N he decided to come back to should be No trouble against villainsThe O he missed should be Oblivion for VillainsThe last U should be UnbeatableThe last S should be Stupendous

She has him in her grasp.

So the teacher can open any locker she chooses, without any trouble? And knows which one is Calvin’s?

I wonder if Calvin knows about the Chokey.

Perhaps he could do it like this:

S…for STUPENDOUS!

T…for TIGER, ferocity of!

U…for UNDERWEAR, red!

P…for POWER, incredible!

E…for EXCELLENT physique!

N…for NEVER backing down!

D…for DETERMINATION!

O…for OPPONENT OF OPPRESSION!*

U…for UNIQUE fighting skills!

S…for SAVING the day!

*He actually refers to himself this way in earlier Stupendous Man strips

Stupendous Envy?

I believe a psychiatrist would be necessary for the likes of Calvin.

If Ms Wormwood doesn’t grasp why Calvin or any child would pretend to be a superhero, she’s the one who needs a psychologist, not Calvin.
