We're almost through the comic's first full year, the remaining three comics for 1935 are Christmas and New Years' specials - now is as good as time as any to take a quick break from weekly installments and look at the bonus comics from that book I mentioned.
This is such a good comic. :33:

Someone gets a dog on impulse and with no idea how to properly train or care for a dog, then tries to fix bad behaviors by doing random things that won't actually work. A sadly realistic comic.

Are old people typically invited to go back to their high school and do their old routines for Homecoming, or is this a Funky Winkerbean thing?
Alumni marching bands at Homecoming are totally a thing. I've taken part in a couple at my collegiate alma mater. We'd hang out in the stands with the band, take part in all the cheers and shenanigans during the game -- trombone field goals, that sort of thing -- then during the half time show we'd march out in a block for two songs, one that's part of the program and the fight song finale. Good times. It's usually something more recent grads take part in, but you'll also get the occasional diehard from like the Class of '77 who keeps showing up every year.

Now I've never heard of one at a high school, but in that part of Ohio marching band is srsbzns so maybe?

Suddenly I'm wondering what percentage of band kids actually continue playing after they graduate. Once you're out of school, there's no more band that's just automatically THERE for you to be part of anymore, you'd have to intentionally seek out an orchestra or a garage band that happens to need an oboist (or whatever the hell you play), and audition for it and make a time commitment etc.

When I finished high school, I basically never picked up my instrument again. There are things I sometimes miss about being in the school band, but it turns out actually playing music... isn't really one of them.

Lots of places have community bands that have lax or no audition/instrument policies. I joined one before covid after not playing my instrument since high school and it was nice.

I have a visceral hatred for the original version of this strip where Hobbes turns back to normal, not because of the strip itself but because of the glut of "childhood ruined I'm literally sobbing right now" or "here's a lovely fancomic where Calvin's grown up and married to Susie as eye bleach" that always inevitably followed
The only "grown Calvin" comic I liked was a four-panel mocking the "grown Calvin schmaltz eye bleach married to Susie garbage." My search talent sucks though and I can't find it but every panel had grown Calvin crying and the final panel I think was him peeing on Moe's grave while crying.

It is my sincere hope that, at some point in the near future, a Simpsons writer posts to their Twitter a handwritten list of the fake brand names that didn't make the cut (Though given that "BananCo" was the other one in the episode...it might not be a deep field.)

Reminder: what Danielle did in the first strip is not murder, since she ate the person she killed.

This tells you a lot about both hellworld (that it's, well, hell) and Danielle. Seriously girl you've been here for what, a month, tops, and you're already started killing people. Really makes you wonder if the only thing that stopped her from doing so in the human world were laws against it.
