Calvin and Hobbes meet The Demon

Sure, Calvin could have a dark side, but his heart was always in the right place.  Let's hope that Etrigan keeps an eye on him.

  1. Interesting! Did they get teleported here, from STF #4751, by Darkseid's omega beams? Or did they simply wear out their welcome at the House of Mystery?*

    *See STF #1915.

  3. The big dialogue bubble in the middle of the cover is always an interesting design choice. Maybe take it all the way, and have a hole in the cover through which you see the dialogue- then the first page could feature the same words in a different visual context.

  4. I don't think you've ever done anything here with Calvin's infamous snowman dioramas, have you, Ross?
