Calvin & Hobbes and Watchmen

 

Well, Calvin certainly has the imagination required for such an undertaking.  It would be fun to find out what kind of world he builds.

  1. I think it's reasonably safe to assume that this will soon look like a job for the 4th Wall Four!

    1. I have to be honest, though: the poignant STF #1717 is still my favorite of all your Bill Watterson tributes.

  2. I'm trying to imagine what a Calvinesque Rorschach would be like, and my brain keeps shutting down in self-defense. ;)

    1. Scarier than a Black Lantern Comedian wearing Evil Ernie's sentient Smiley button, my namesake.

    2. Although, perhaps not as scary as seeing Stupendous Man and Mangog vs. Mr. Universe!

  3. Now you have me wanting to see Dr. Manhattan vs. the Beyonder.

    3. @Det. Tobor: I think Hobbes is even worse at drawing than Calvin is at spelling. His sketch of Dr. Manhattan makes him look like a cyclops! At least, for the first ten seconds I looked at him.

  6. Calvin's imagination could mean bad things for everyone else but it would be fun.
