Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT First published in 1985, Calvin and Hobbes became a worldwide obsession, one that still thrives today – as much a result of Hobbes' hilarity as Calvin's humor. In the comics' first strip, creator Bill Watterson introduced readers to the six-year-old Calvin and his pet tiger, Hobbes, and instantly captured their hearts.
10 “Tiger Food” An Empirical Answer To An Existential Question Like many strong friendships, Calvin and Hobbes have contrasting personality traits that create an endlessly fun dynamic. In these differences, Watterson molds their relationship into something tangible, reflecting how true friends interact and communicate over time. This bedtime strip is a perfect example of the characters’ entertaining dynamic, specifically in the way Hobbes loses tolerance for Calvin’s overactive brain.
8 “Maybe If You Read More...” Hobbes Checks Calvin’s Ego The six-year-old Calvin exhibits a variety of moods; one moment he is introspective and somber, and in the next, immature and flagrant. The tragedy of Hobbes’ character is being by his side for all of it, no matter how miserable Calvin gets. While Hobbes does a good job keeping calm through it all, he does manage to get a jab every now and then, and it's always hilarious.
Throughout the run of Calvin and Hobbies, Bill Watterson purposely did not make it clear if Hobbes' is imaginary or not, preferring to give readers the space to decide for themselves. Hobbes the tiger also has his fair share of landmark quirks, as seen in this classic "pounce and tackle" comic format. These Hobbes-attacks are hilarious because they’re so sporadic, and as seen here, overly-exaggerated in length and action. Through this Hobbes-attack trope, fans of Calvin and Hobbes know exactly what to expect when Calvin calls out "I’m ho-ome" to an empty house, and it’s always entertaining.
3 "Instinct. Tigers Are Born With It." Hobbes Proves He Is A Mathematical Genius Hobbes is notorious for dishing Calvin life advice, providing wisdom that the boy often needs in his life. Hobbes does seem to offer solid perspectives on morals and nature, but when it comes to mathematics, he’s equally in the dark as his six-year-old friend. The greatest part of this – Calvin continuously turns to Hobbes for homework help, and Hobbes continuously agrees to give it to him.
