Growing up I was very much a loner. I played video games and spent hours in my room playing with toys. Imagination was always my best friend growing up. So naturally I was really drawn to Calvin & Hobbes because of the relationship they had, even though it wasn't exactly real. The snowman strips were by far my favorite ones,... and it does make me a bit sad that there wont be any more...

I am sure people have posted these all before, but it makes me smile and hopefully someone who hasn't seen it will enjoy them

FP Edit: I really enjoyed reading everyones comments, im glad it made some peoples Monday not be so Mondayish

Thanks man, really made my day better. +1

+1 for Calvin and Hobbes. The snow strips were always my favorite

The sheer amount of snow these would take always made me think that Calvin probably lived in Minnesota or Wisconsin.

As a philosophy student, I always enjoy seeing John Calvin and Thomas Hobbes, which is who this is based off of. Wundebar

A) Always upvote Calvin and Hobbes and B) Anyone try and make some of these in real life? I get no snow down here, so it's a no go.

Yeah sure. It's doable, but heavy. Usually a team thing.

I used to make battle scenes in the yard, complete with red food coloring for blood. My Mom was concerned the landlord might throw us out!

We grew up in LA. I remember how disappointed my little bro was when we visited snow and he couldn't manage a dozen snow monsters in a day.

I will follow through. It might be in Jan or Feb. But I will.

I've often wondered just how feasible some of these are (including the snow-sharks). Something tells me somewhere on the level of "Nawp".

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

It worked out pretty well actually. Considering the "snow" we get here in Dallas is closer to ice, it holds shape well. Did this 4-5 yr ago.

While it's sad that we won't ever see any new C&H, the fact that Bill Watterson put a nice close on the series instead of dragging it 1/2

Through the mud until it died to make more money -and the fact that he refused to merchandise so it was never cheapened - makes me happy.2/2

As much as I want to agree, I would buy the shit outta some Calvin and Hobbes dioramas! Imagine putting the snowmen out for christmas! :)

Yeah, me too. But in a way that would have cheapened it too. It would have made the papers, and that's what people would remember.
