WHAAAAT?!?!?!?!?!? Pants on fire?!?!?!? Aaaaarrrrrrggggghhhhhhh….no wait, stop drop and roll….again…. keep rolling until the flames are out….oh, wait…it wasn’t me….sorry for the drama….(blushing)
Calvin hollers to Mom just because he’s in mortal danger. He should wait until it’s life threatening. Mom can’t come running for every little thing! :o)
Poor Calvin he will never know if hes got the monsters under his control ,or will they sneak out if he falls asleep?Moms help is only temporary in this case.
Nope that just doesn’t work, Calvin. I’m almost 80 years old and I still can’t shut out monsters at night. But now they are called Wall Street, Foreclosures, the National debt, and election day.
This reminds me of Calvin’s fear that God may be a gigantic chicken. The monster under his bed seems to be some kind of vengeful chicken as well, if the claws are any indication. Maybe Mom cooks a lot of poultry.

You can’t control your thoughts. Your thoughts control you.

Calvin would get his comeuppance if the monsters captured him.

You have to defend against them like Bogarts, imagine them in a humorous, embarrassing condition.

The monster would be happier and less threatening if he could get a manicure.

WOW…0_0…that scared me, and I’m 42. Calvin may need professional help down the road….

Looks like Calvin could use a Vulcan mind meld to convince him that monsters are not real.

One of those disturbing realities of life — what if a monster’s existence doesn’t depend on our thinking about it?

PT: Mark Twain revisited; the monsters deserve Calvin. Wonder how much they would pay for his mother to take him.

I have a clan of monsters under my bed. It’s called memorabilia.

What is it with kids seeing monsters in the dark? I had the same problem. Is it over imagination or what?

That’s the closest we see of the monsters.

Unfortunately, the monsters that live in the reality around us are much scarier than the monsters in our dreams and imaginations!

I just remembered a Robert Sheckley short story where the heroes were in a similar condition. They hid under the blankets until dawn.

Hey Calvin, I found that sometimes you just have to give the monsters a High Five. In the face. With a baseball bat. Go get em
