Maybe, ‘Calvin’ thinks that he can still throw the snowball at ‘Susie’ but by throwing ‘left-handed’ there is a chance that he will miss therefore cancelling out the throw?
At the rate Calvin’s going, no amount of good deeds will ever be enough to dig himself out of this hole this close to Christmas! Better luck NEXT year where Santa’s concerned!!!!! ;-)
The way Calvin throws, he may not have to worry. He will miss, Susy will throw one back, and knock his socks off. And he still won’t have any good deeds.

Calvin is fooling himself. TEN acts a day? He’ll never get past the first one!

That grey area is so dark its more like a light black.

I love Hobbes’ logic in the last panel. It’s almost like the good side of Calvin trying an alternate approach to reach him.

I do believe that Calvin is ambidexterous!

Well, if he throws the snowball with his left hand only that hand won’t get presents. Right?

At this rate Calvin isn’t even going to get coal—expect nothing but lint at the bottom of the stocking, Calvin.

When will Susie learn to NOT go for walks in the snow?
A clear case of entrapment.

Admit it, Calvin…the look on Susie’ shocked face when the slushball hits her and creeps down her collar…won’t that be present enough for you?

Wait for Susie to react. Then we will see a subdued Calvin.

In a few years, Calvin better not throw snowballs at Susie because he won’t get any

Go on Calvin, throw it, knock her hat off. Who cares, cola can be fun, just think of all the drawings on the walls you can do.

So now Hobbes is acting as his conscience?!? That certainly is a twist! ;-)

@battle of plattsburgh,The ‘net’ result is that entrapment is a good word for it!

Calvin has presents in mind; Hobbes has presence of mind.Hobbes says, in effect, that “Calvin will not have presents of mine”.

This is an act of goodwill. He’s teaching Susie to be more alert.
