I really love strips like this because it seriously blurred the lines between Calvin’s fantasy world and the reality his parents experienced
Imagination is such a powerful and wonderful thing and I really love how Calvin’s was so important to him and so intrinsic to his personality that it actually caused problems for him
See here’s the thing about Calvin and Hobbes
It’s not important to discern whether or not these things actually happened, they happened in Calvin’s eyes and that’s all that really matters
Which is something that whichever asshole made this fake strip and called it the last Calvin and Hobbes failed so dramatically to understand
For the record, that wasn’t the last strip at all, this was
And it was absolutely perfect
That very last Calvin and Hobbes strip makes me tear up every time
