Calvin and Hobbes are at it again, and this time, our irrepressible friends are taking a walk on the wild side.Homicidal Psycho Jungle Cat chronicles another segment of the multifarious adventures of this wild child and his faithful, but skeptical, friend. If the best cartoons compel readers to identify themselves within the funny frames, then all who enjoy
Calvin and Hobbes are creative, imaginative, and ... bad, bad, bad!
Calvin, the irascible little boy with the stuffed tiger who comes to life are a pair bound for trouble. Boring school lessons become occasions for death-defying alien air battles, speeding snow sled descents elicit philosophical discussions on the meaning of life, and Hobbess natural inclination to pounce on his little friend wreaks havoc on Calvins sense of security.
Calvins the kid we all wish wed been. Sassy, imaginative, far more verbal than his parents can manage, Calvin is the quintessential bad boyand the boy we love to see. He terrorizes little Susie, offers Candid Opinions from a neighborhood stand, and questions his parents authority. What assurance do I have that your parenting isnt screwing me up? he demands.
Calvin and Hobbes manages to say what needs to be said about childhood and life: Eww, mud, says Calvin. Look at this gooshy, dirty, slimy, thick, wet mud ... Bleecch ... Talk about a kid magnet!
