He DID come to life. You and I live on opposite sides of the world, no doubt, and yet either of us could describe his character, morals, intelligence and even his "tone of voice" with perfect fidelity. In fact, he is MORE alive in the (collective) human mind that you or I ever will be.
My favorite cartoon strips in no special order were "Calvin & Hobbes", "Peanuts", "Dilbert", "The Far Side" and "Doonesbury", Not only did they build my character they also defined it!
When I was in first grade, I had a horrible teacher and was forever being sent into the hal. I had a tiger in my locker to keep me company. Who knew we would end up in the comics.
I recall when one of the strips you showed came out - I cut it out of the paper and put it on my refrigerator - my mother came by my apt. and said "why is this up here? " I said - Guess !!!
I remember Calvin standing in front of a microwave oven, reading the instructions on a frozen food package. "Two minutes?". He shouts. "Who's got that kind of time??!!"

7:38 Grounder-in-the-nose bit: Oh, god, this is so terrible. Why am I LMAO?
“Is this you with the keg and the “PARTY NAKED” T-shirt?”
“GIVE ME THAAAT!”
Loved that one!! 😁👍
Sure miss these guys
11:16 is scary on how it predicted the USA in 2023. Next to "Bloom County" and "Doonsbury" this was my favorite strip.
Yea, that is a bit unnerving. Thankfully we had Calvin and Hobbs to help build character before that happened to us!
There will never be another "Calvin and Hobbes," one of my favorite strips.
I miss Calvin and Hobbes as well. By the way, I think Hobbes really did come to life when grownups weren't watching.
Reading it in my childhood that’s what I always believed. 😊

@@uncletiggermclaren7592 I concur without question.
Yes indeed. Hobbes came alive when grownups turned away.
According to his creator Hobbes was however the person saw him. Parents only saw him as a toy Calvin and the rest of us saw him as a real tiger
I always loved the strips where Calvin treated being dad in the same vein as holding office
"Why can't we build character at a Miami condo or a casino" I asked myself as much, Calvin.
And it makes you laugh at the same time. Best teaching tactic ever.

Don't forget "Bloom County"!
Don't forget Beetle Bailey.
@@swamprat69er Don't forget "Nancy"
@@seththomas9105 I totally forgot Nancy
I was told that patiently watching the whole video builds character ...
Watching it with the sound on is akin to being water boarded. Thank God for mute buttons!
Best comic strip ever. 🐯
Wonderful Thanks!
You’re welcome

It built character….😉👍
We need a sequel about Calvin as a young man, employed, and now liking girls.
Hobbes being replaced by a live all-knowing cat.

Which strip was it?
@@redculturedash8074 the one about how being miserable builds character.
We need C & H again. More truth and life experience in there than you could pack in a lifetime.
I remember Calvin standing in front of a microwave oven, reading the instructions on a frozen food package.
"Two minutes?". He shouts. "Who's got that kind of time??!!"
It was actually six minutes, but I did consider that
So did it build character getting all the way to the end?
I think my character has been re-zoned. It's due for demolition....
Right😅

Well, 11:35 sure came true, didn’t it?
Oh, I didn’t think about that
Scary.
