I miss when “Zounds!” was in more regular rotation.

I learned it, ofc, from #SpacemanSpiff, Calvin’s alter-ego in #Calvin&Hobbes 🤓

I think it’s short for “God’s Wounds,” which is a pretty epic cosmic-curse, whether or not you’re dumb enough to believe God exists (not I).

Full cinematic universe in his head…
Meanwhile it’s just a patch of dirt. 🚀

Spaceman Spiff faces his deadliest mission yet: going to school.

Mission complete. The enemy was homework and the target was obliterated.

Spaceman Spiff boldly goes… where bedtime rules don’t apply.

Spaceman Spiff’s weapons fail… just like Calvin’s spelling test. #CalvinandHobbes #SpacemanSpiff

Homework feels a lot scarier when aliens are involved.

Even on alien planets, Mom still wins. #CalvinandHobbes #SpacemanSpiff

A fighter guy studios style cartoon showing spaceman spiff with a ray gun on an alien planet.. Behind him is his crashed space ship and 2 aliens peeking out..

I would straight up watch a legit show (live action or animated) of spaceman spiff or tracer bullet..

I know it would never happen, but one can dream...

Anyways, please enjoy my version of the greatest space explorer..

“Drive it Like You Stole it” finished piece from yesterday’s sketch one of the last times I used an ink outline. It’s fun to reminisce on the evolution of one’s style.

Brand new frickin paining coming your way! This was a really fun one I just completed which combined #calvin (of calvin and hobbes fame) with alter egos. He had a few great ones and six of them are captured here.

I'm Irish and sports stars are about the only thing we celebrate and support here, and I'm not into sports. So Sean Murray was like my first time feeling national pride for someone's success and talent, because they also gave me my dream game since I was a kid. #SpacemanSpiff

Blast off to Planet Z-12 with Spaceman Spiff! 🌌 Who else imagines epic adventures out of everyday life? 🚀 #CalvinAndHobbes #SpacemanSpiff

So what’s up with Calvin and Hobbes Sky? I’m gonna try several hashtags to find the right one! #CalvinandHobbes #CalvinHobbes #BillWatterson #Watterson #CandH #CalvinHobbes #Calvin #Hobbes #SpacemanSpiff #SusieDerkins #CalvinandHobbesSky #CalvinSky #HobbesSky

Calvin (as Spaceman Spiff) is crashing his red flying saucer on Mars. Hobbes (in stuffed toy form and in a space helmet) is floating through space in the foreground.

#CalvinAndHobbes commission I did, featuring #SpacemanSpiff. This was a fun one, I grew up on this comic strip (as did many of us)!
