Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for November 01, 2012

I can see Calvin as a 40 year old, single and at the Comic Con.

Wait, there’s supposed to be a purpose? When did that start?

No wonder he doesn’t have a complete set if he’s only bought $20 worth.

Capt. Napalm, now there was a Super Hero…

I need any Gum for per day….

Perhaps she’ll collect animal cards!

To love life simply!

Going through with no purpose IS my purpose.

Just because Susie doesn’t collect gum cards dose not mean she has no purpose in life you smuck.She may start collecting smucks very soon now .

I’ll bet adult Susie doesn’t read or comment on GoComics either.

Hmm. Lots of religious ‘peddlers’ would love to ‘show you’ or ‘sell you’ a purpose in life.

1) No they don’t and 2) no they aren’t. As Jacques Cousteau put it best (after pointing out that dolphins are trapped by things that wouldn’t slow a human down for five seconds had we their leaping ability): they don’t have human intelligence – they have dolphin intelligence.And we have the ego point of view, which no animal has and which truly sets us apart. An animal knows – it can tell us that it knows – but it doesn’t know that it knows.

My mom threw out all my Zap comix…..

I’ve never heard of Captain Napalm.

Somebody needs to create Captain Napalm comics. That is a super hero comic I would read.

@leftwingpatriotNo, he’s married to Susie, and they have a kid. But he still goes to Comic-con, and she still doesn’t entirely get why. ;)

and, why does society want everybody to be a couple?

I think i squared away my purpose a while back..

Awwwwww… Poor Calvin.

LOL xxx

At least Calvin’s civil this time.

My sister collected Beatles cards and I collected Batman TV series cards. 4 cards and a stick of bubble gum for a nickel. Now those were the days. Wonder what ever happened to those cards?

Having no purpose serves no purpose, except as a pretext for denying allegience to the Creator.

That has always been my purpose in life…. Oh wait…

OH wow! I hope there are more Calvin comics about bubble gum cards. This rules.

Don’t worry, Calvin—your collection is nothing. Some people my age have very screwed up ideas of what exactly life’s purpose is.

Moms. The destroyers of all potential collectible wealth.

You need to buy more gum, Calvin, that’s the only answer.

Will life become meaning once he has obtained #8 and #34?

:-D

Our purpose is to take care of the Earth and everything on it. We’re doing a lousy job.

No “special purpose” either? (Steve Martin, The Jerk)

I collected those toys you get by putting in a quarter in a machine.

My only purpose in life right now — at this very minute — is to enjoy my time here at Go Comics!!!!!

;-)

That is why collectors and fans will rule the world! Mwahahahaha!

Later, Calvin figured out that gurlz were simply weird and ugly.

Maybe he could ask some other kids.

Peanuts had a similar strip one time where Charlie Brown was looking for a particular favorite baseball player card and Lucy had it … he tried everything to trade her for it, but she said no and he wandered off dejectedly. Then she left and threw the card away over her shoulder as her interest was only peaked by Charlie Brown’s interest.

@Puddleglum2,It’s allegiance, not allegience!

ooo he’s pist

i have some can i trade?
