Gr8at – Calvin and Hobbes

I’ve always been a big fan of cartoons, from the homely and hilarious, to the provocative and poignant. One of the ones I used to read regularly was Calvin and Hobbes, the tales of a mischievous young boy and his tiger friend that only Calvin can see. They even made a previous line(s) of the day. Here are eight of my favourites. Which ones stand out to you? And if I’ve swayed you, you’ll find more here.

You probably weren’t a follower of my blog when my 18 year old cat passed away a couple months ago, but his name was Hobbes. I loved Calvin and Hobbes. 🙂

Sorry to hear. If he was even half as exciting as his name, he;d have left a bundle of great times 🙂

  I’m at the carwash lol. All the moving has made our car so dusty! I’m glad you checked him out. He was the best kitty and I think you’re right. They chose me 🙂

Love this comic strip. We have several of the Calvin and Hobbes collections on our shelf. 🙂

I have all of the collections of C&H 🙂

I like the breakfast in bed one, because it shows he tries his best. I love the last one, because that is so much like my kid, then and now.
