Haha!!! Nobody bothered to fish that sonuvabish outta the schmoo ?! Unless they know that Cal isn’t gonna succeed that was a stupid move on their part.
“Sklotch?” That is not in any of my dictionaries. Amazing work! At this point, though, it would be a downer of epic proportions were Brown not to triumph. I eagerly await a cosmic finale.
Judging from the swirlies, I’m guessing his control over the Shmoo is like predicted as well. It’d also explain his crazyteeth.
Since he’s taken tons more damage than mere explosives could deal, I’m really wondering what deus ex machina is going to kill him – I really can’t imagine Chuck or X have anything left to throw at him by this point.
My wild mass guessing:
– Hobbes comes back and kills him somehow for some reason!
– He’s not really back, he’s just one last hurrah before he dissolves from corrupted shmoo
– Whatever annie was trying to tell them to do with the explosives that might not have been the garf was because it’d actually be better used on him?
– Some of the escapees came back with as-of-yet-unseen BFGs or magic weapons
– Rocks fall everyone dies and this comic was never supposed to have a happy ending and anyone who thought otherwise deserves their bitter tears
Woooo timely updates indeed! I’m pretty sure those are his gums with new teeth poking out. Hasn’t anybody ever seen a baby’s mouth? Cal has baby mouth.
Oh it’s bad, but I have a sneaking suspicion how Cal meets his end. If he is now controlling/ part Schmoo, there is an enemy that Cal doesn’t know of- a HUNGRY enemy…
@Bartleby Uh, what about his arm having the bone sticking out of his flesh from when he fell down into the shmoo tank? I’m guessing it has to do with his wolverine like healing ability and the properties of the shmoo interacting with each other. Also, he created Hobbes basically from his mind and a stuffed tiger, him going “jurassic” doesn’t strike me as surprising in the least.
@YGD
Of course Chuck is going to fail. That’s what he DOES. That was the whole message that Charles Schulz was trying to communicate “Peanuts” from beginning to end. Life is filled with failure and frustration.
You have got to be fucking kidding me!
Captcha took one long last drag on her cigarette, looking at the Garf and said that ” Was opededa”…
Haha!!! Nobody bothered to fish that sonuvabish outta the schmoo ?! Unless they know that Cal isn’t gonna succeed that was a stupid move on their part.
I want to make a comment with the phrase “pain in the ass,” but dammit, I just can’t think of one that’s good enough!

Well, shit.
I TOLD YOU SO

Great, Calvin goes Tetsuo. Just what we need.
Reaction to first panel: WUT
Also, CAL looks remarkably displeased.
Lol @ NeuroManson. Now, eight weeks of updates with both sides screaming “KANEDA!”…..”TETSUO”! back and forth and back and forth.
uh…
told ya it was a hairball.
*shrug*
here we go…
?
The teeth–he’s turning into a dinosaur, I know it.
Also, I’m not sure anyone has congratulated JY on hitting four straight updates on time in a row. Well done, my man.
Woooo timely updates indeed! I’m pretty sure those are his gums with new teeth poking out. Hasn’t anybody ever seen a baby’s mouth? Cal has baby mouth.
looks like he’s more bug sh.t than man now…..i wonder how well he’ll hold together if his ego takes another hard smack to the self-worth.
As Chekhov said, you can’t show the gun in act I if you don’t fire it in act III. Carnivorous Kudzu.
Does anyone else have to try like five times to get to a Captcha they can actually translate to English letters?
“…I CANNOT BELIEVE THE DAY I’M HAVING!!”
…neither can I. Fuck this, I’m going back to bed.
@LordJim- If Cal does turn into a dinosaur, I hope and pray it’ll be one flying an F-14…
Well, SHIT…
hahaha just saw your comment, nanosheep. Great minds. 😀
Beautiful! CAL knows how to make an entrance!
-hey, can I get his nanites to work on my car?
Was an unusual amount of time spent drawing those first two panels? Looks like a lot of hard work.
JY: Yes Jorpho, they did. Repay me by participating in the pre-order special!
I’m waiting for Annie to call back, “ANY COCK WILL DO!”
Cal’s eye seems to be okay. The Shmoo apparently has some healing properties, as well?
Actually, until you said otherwise I would’ve assumed the first panel was a Peter Pan shout-out (CAL being the big manchild that he is).
For one thing, he’s not naked. (Should we be grateful?)
*jaw slowly drops*
Aw man… We’re FUCKED!!!
Well, I guess they don’t have to worry about the live Garf falling into the wrong hands now…
That sucks. But at least he got the Garf for them. Did the crew not figure out that shit has healing properties? Might have come in useful…
Oh it’s bad, but I have a sneaking suspicion how Cal meets his end. If he is now controlling/ part Schmoo, there is an enemy that Cal doesn’t know of- a HUNGRY enemy…
You spell that F U C T.
How in the hell did Cal get his eye back?
Fucking EPIC.
“and now that we’re all friends…”
Andy Dufresne’s got nuthin’ on Cal. Captcha rewards me with for my skepticism with $13,000 and eyhase…
It’s not Cal. It’s some hyperactive schmoo becoming the last thoughts of the dying Cal.

Goddammit! I finish reading the archive, thinking that the story will be nicely wrapped up at the end, and this is where you leave me?!
reCaptcha offers an opinion on how WB and Cal should resolve their diffferences: mbinduch twining
JY: Read the archive again! Like heroin, it just keeps getting better and the high lasts longer each time!

Hey maarvarq, ya can get it all in print too! Cool icon ya have there!
-that reminds me…
