Okay, NOW Cal is starting to come into his own. The melodrama, the erratic behavior, the excessive verbiage… you’ve got the second most beloved cartoon character ever now updated for the future.
@Jim : so true. JY does an amazing job on so many levels of not only capturing the character’s essence, but adding to it and making it his own. Watterson, Schultz and everyone else would be proud.
and now the interminable wait for Monday to see how this plays out! Finally we might just see the full HOBBS, or shall we be switched back to the control room next update, JY? LOL
What’s the fuss, just have Anne toss a ball of yarn, rub his belly and after the puuring stops Tiger will fall asleep in Popeye’s lap(sure his appendages are gone, but with some suction cups and titanium wire to attach it to the wall, it’s Popel’s next pet gift item, with S&H it’ll sure turn a profit)
Hey Jason? I know it’s probably been brought up a few million times already, but have you noticed a little bit of resemblance between Chuck and “Jack Cayman” from “MadWorld”? Only Jack has goggles and a retractable chainsaw in his mechanical arm.
I feel like there should be some background music here, but I don’t know which piece would be more fitting: Chopin’s Funeral March, the opening of Beethoven’s Fifth, or the Looney Tunes theme.

I know they messed up Miss Wormwood. I don’t remember them eating Susie. If they didn’t, she needs to show up on Chuck’s side. After all, she’s the only one who can tame Hobbes…
I have read the entire series now in one sitting… this is without a doubt, the most brilliant webcomic the world has ever seen. My love for this… this… masterpiece… is without bounds…
I am only disheartened in that I am coming in at the very end… I could read this strip forever…
@wisdom000: at the very end is not necessarily true, since this was actually supposed to be over already, so unless you consider in the next 6 months a short time, you have a lot to look forward to yet LOL
For all his rescheduling, delays, and meanness JY gets away with some ridiculous timing. I could not have thought of a better strip to bring in 2011. Hobbes being introduced this way as the last strip of the year.
I am familiar with Mad World and their obvious rip off of Weapon Brown! I and the Schulz estate are teaming up for a billion dollar lawsuit which should scre these punks straight.
Captcha opinion of its bunion after surgery: Still Acheling
Awesome. So badass.
ps. Hobbes looks scary. Part cyborg. Awesome intro.
That’s no kitten! That’s a 500 pound gully cat!
Capcha says to hit the sauce: glass, gurbely
Endgame, now that Hobbes has entered the fray I can’t wait to see how this plays out!

EPIC.

Bracing for epic…
The shit is finally on. 😀

Yeah, Hobbes always did let himself get captured by girls.

@Alexander y Dannyboy: Wasn’t there a flashback or a side strip which revealed that Cal and Hobbes both ate Suzie early on?

@Chyll and Alexander – It was a guest comic, not sure if it counts for continuity: http://www.whatisdeepfried.com/2010/08/27/weapon-brown-guest-week-5/
Huh…so that’s what it looks like when an entire squadron of soldiers simultaneously shit their britches.
Now THAT’S more like it.

Oh… damn. Hobbes is about to pounce.
I dunno, Jack Cayman from Mad World looks more like Hell Boy to me.
Is the update coming Wednesday?
Aw shit son.
Hello Kitty!
