Only Calvin could get his cat to play fetch.

Our tabby played fetch when she was a kitten. She grew out of it, unfortunately, but it was great while it lasted!

Have you never experienced the joy of hitting a tennis ball with a baseball bat? Home run every single time.

Why? Do tennis balls travel further / faster than baseballs?

My european mind is not capable of comprehending your comment.

You might as well write in Cyrillic or kimchi letters 🤧

It’s Hangul, for future reference.

Yea sorry I tried being funny.

I meant Japanese or Chinese symbol but forgot the word.

Kanji.

It’s okay, I’ve honestly never heard Korean script called “kimchi letters” before, so it was more funny than anything.

Tennis is quite famously played in Europe. For example, at a little place called Wimbledon.

A baseball bat is basically a wooden stick that's strong enough to hit a ball without breaking (usually).

Hello fellow Calvin and Hobbes fans!

About this community and how I post the comic strip… The comics are posted in chronological order on the day (usually) they were released. Posting them to match the release date adds a bit of fun and nostalgia to match the experience of reading them in the newspaper for first time. Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. It really sucked when I missed a day. Only years later, when I got the books was I able to catch up on the missed strips.

Calvin and Hobbes is a daily American comic strip created by cartoonist Bill Watterson that was syndicated from November 18, 1985, to December 31, 1995. Commonly cited as "the last great newspaper comic",[2][3][4] Calvin and Hobbes has enjoyed broad and enduring popularity, influence, and academic and philosophical interest… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_and_Hobbes
