Every once in a while, Bill Watterson would present a less cartoony style when depicting Calvin's imaginary adventures as Tracer Bullet, or even playing house with Suzie Derkins. I was always impressed by those sequences - if Watterson had wanted to go with a sci-fi, detective, or superhero strip, he would have also found success based on his gorgeous illustrations.

Can't go wrong with a Calvin & Hobbes cover :D
Hobbes is missing, eh? I wonder if the trail will lead them to a certain Gotham City ailurophile?
Thanks for the nice bit of whimsy, Ross. :-)
I never heard of "Tracer Bullet" before. My hometown newspaper must've considered Spaceman Spiff as more kid-friendly when publishing the syndicated C&H strips every Sunday morning.
That being said, how about a sequel for Halloween? Tracer Bullet and the Nocturnals vs. Lord Pumpkin of the Ultraverse!
Tracy looks like he's shot. Time to go to the hot shot.
You mean, cauterization by cigarette? Ouch!!!!!
Just for ha-ha's: about a sequel featuring a three-way teaming of Tracer, Tracy, and the Spirit?
