| Attack of the Homicidal Psycho Jungle Cat: This
sculpture was created by Nicolas Tanguma, owner of a model kit producing company called Resin
D'Etre. According to Nicolas, "The illusion of Hobbes jumping in the air was achieved by
casting a piece of wire in his tail. The entire kit consists of 5 pieces; 2 whitemetal
and 3 resin."

| Walking on a Log: Here are two different sculptures
based on the same subject matter. In 2006 two friends, Erik Rose (the first 4 pics) and
Eric Gunrud (the last 4 pics), decided to compete
with each other by using unpainted Super Sculpey Firm to sculpt the classic image of
Calvin and Hobbes walking across a log. Congratulations to Erik, who won the fierce
competition with 150 votes to Eric's 96!

| Calvin & Water Balloon : Artist Tom Key says
of this 1999 piece, "I did this statue of Calvin from Bill Watterson's classic comic strip series
Calvin & Hobbes as a birthday present for my Dad. He's a big fan of that series, and I
am too! We really miss it being there in the newspaper to read. It was one of the very
best!" This sculpture measures 5" tall including base and the medium was Super Sculpey.

| Dinosaur Sculpture : This
piece depicts Calvin and Hobbes, with Calvin riding on the back of a
dinosaur. The figures are made of resin and the dinosaur is a plastic
model kit. All of the pieces are pinned so that they can be removed from
the base for further painting. Overall height is about 8", length is
15", and the wood base is 5" X 7". The first three photos are the
unpainted version of course. In the other three someone has painted
the figures to give them a bronzed look.

| Dinosaur Sculpture Variant : Here is
an interesting variation on the sculpture above. It looks like the sculptor
went back and modified the piece, fashioning a dinosaur that looks more like
a tyrannosaurus rex. Note the larger jaw and shorter limbs on the beast.

| Plush Hobbes: I get a lot of requests from folks about how
to get a stuffed Hobbes toy. Well, since they don't exist in stores, you'll just have to
make one yourself like Mia Elliott did. Check it out! The second doll below is from an unknown gentleman who writes, "I used to work for a toy company primarily making plush (stuffed) animals. Our art dept. made 2 or 3 'Hobbes' prototypes. Watterson would have nothing to do with licensing his 'children', so the project was dropped. I applaud him for that. There was a short discussion about the 'imaginary/alive' or the 'real/stuffed' Hobbes. Though a few of the creative people wanted to go 'stuffed', the majority of the group agreed on 'alive'. When Hobbes is a toy, Calvin is 'alone', when Hobbes is alive Calvin is 'alive'. Calvin is most happy when he is in his imagination. Some even equated Hobbes to Calvin's soul. When we see Calvin alone, we can't wait for Hobbes to show up." The third Hobbes doll is by Bethany Kerr, who created a Hobbes pattern for her kids. Thanks for the photos! The fourth doll is another one by Mia Elliott, this time featuring Hobbes in his regular 'doll' mode. Click the pictures below to see larger versions. | |

| Fan Watercolored Print: This fan piece was done in
2007 and the artist had this to say: "This is a piece of artwork I created as birthday
gift for my college-age daughter. Because she and I share a passion for Calvin and
Hobbes, it was a gift that was as much fun to make as to give... The black
portion (the ink drawing part) is from a hi-res scan printed on heavy watercolor
paper. The color part I watercolored by hand."

| Plastic Cel: It's always surprising to see the wide variation of items people will turn into Calvin and Hobbes artifacts. Here we have a couple of animation cels (though there was never a Calvin cartoon, I suppose some people like to envision what might have been). The first cel is a single sheet of clear plastic, possibly acrylic, measuring 14 ½" x 9 ½". The artist has printed Calvin and Hobbes dancing on it. The second cel is quite a nice example of animation cel art, featuring Calvin and Hobbes relaxing over a painting of a sunny hillside. The third cel was obtained by Mike S. at an estate sale in Huntington, NY in the early 2000s. Little is known about it, despite the certificate of authenticity.

Here's a Calvin and Hobbes-related song by a group
called Pure Joy who formed in Seattle, Washington in
the late 1980s. The song comes from their first album "Unsung," which
you can usually purchase at Amazon by clicking here. According to the liner
notes, "Unsung, recorded in 1988, was intended to be the first
full-length Pure Joy release. It was financed by a shady character. He
fled town with the master tapes. He fled town with all the
money. He has never been heard from again. Fortunately, Rusty and
Craig saw this coming and made copies of the tapes..."
lyrics
(parts I'm not sure about are marked with question marks)
I'm gonna get me a ship
that can take me far away
Far from this stupid world
Calvin and Hobbes investigate
Just give me a chance
to show you all existing love
Love with imperfection and
you say that's not love at all
Now we know there's just too many things
for you to hold onto
And for all the love your words can bring
I'll have all the loss you surely breed (?)
I'm gonna have ships and things
That can take me all the way
out of reality
No fumes and glooms and postulates (?)
Just give me a chance
to show you all existing love
Love with imperfection and
you say that's not love at all
Now we know there's just too many things
for you to hold onto
And for all the love your words can bring
I'll have all the loss you surely breed (?)
I'm gonna build me a ship
that can take me far away
Far from this stupid world
Calvin and Hobbes investigate
Just give me a chance
to show you all existing love
Love with imperfection and
you say that's not love at all
No that's not love at all
Are you sure it's not love at all?
Here's one by Minnesota-based musician Eric Distad, recorded somewhat hastily for the album-writing challenge called FAWM. If you like it, let him know! He says he may record an improved version if feedback is forthcoming.
Eric Distad - Calvin (2004)
Got my tiger and me
It’s a quarter to three
And we’re headed back in time
To a place that I know
For pictures to show
That will get many a dime
First rule
Is what we say
The second is the same
As long as they don’t repeat
That is the game
Stupendous man
With his super plan
In crimson cape so strong
Vanquishes schools
Rewrites the rules
And rights all the wrong
Spiff from Space
In a race
Across a barren moon
Dodge and run
You’re almost done
You’ll be in bed soon
Next up is a lovely disturbing little tune about a young man's, umm...fixation on Calvin's
creator. It's by Neil
Cicierega, a man of many talents.
Neil Cicierega - Bill Watterson (2005)
Where'd you go when you were done?
I'd like to know what you've become
Your biggest fan, awake at dawn
I cry, I stand on your front lawn
Its plain to see you're scared of me
But that's not how it's 'sposed to be
When you're the reason I'm in town
Every piece of mind you put down
Don't you know I think you're the cats meow
Where's the tiger now, where's the tiger now?
Bill Watterson, can't you hear me?
Bill Watterson, please don't fear me
Don't treat me like I have rabies
I only wanna have your babies
Now we have this rocking live tune about everyone's favorite alter ego. Sing along with Denver's own Red Eye Revival.
Red Eye Revival - Spaceman Spiff (live) (2001)
Watch out for Spaceman Spiff
Watch out for Spaceman Spiff
Enter a small but valiant hero
Flying through outer space
Watch out for Spaceman Spiff
Watch out for Spaceman Spiff
Watch out for Spaceman Spiff
Fearless hero
Flying explorer
Prepares to land his ship
He's Spaceman Spiff
(Spoken): Interplanetary explorer extraordinaire, Spaceman Spiff sets down to explore a new planet. Spaceman Spiff sets out in search for sentient life. What dangers lie ahead for our fearless hero? What's this?? Oh no, it's a dreaded scum being!!
Running, he's Spaceman Spiff
Running, he's Spaceman Spiff
Pressurize the magnetron
Turbolight the thrust drive
Blast to escape velocity
It's Spaceman Spiff

Am I getting the skills I'll need to effectively compete in a tough global economy? I want a high paying job when I get out of here! I want opportunity!" She responds, "In that case young man, I suggest you start working harder. What you get out of school depends on what you put into it." "Oh," says Calvin. "Then forget it."

| Patches : This collection
of patches comes from several places. You'll note that C&H seem to be popular
subjects for patches in military and civilian rescue organizations.
Patch #1 is a standard patch for use with clothing of all types. Patch #2 is a 4" patch for an EA-6B Prowler flight crew. Patch #3 appears to be from a fire department. Patch #4 is from Intel School class 890906. Patch #5 is a February 04, 1999 patch from the VT-9 USS John F. Kennedy CV-67 Buckeye Ball. All Navy aviation students must successfully complete 10 arrested landings (traps) aboard a US Navy carrier and be catapulted (shot) off a US Navy carrier 10 times to make their carrier qualification class. Carrier qualification classes originated when the Navy no longer had a carrier dedicated to the training of Naval pilots for takeoffs and arrested landings. The last two were the USS Lexington AVT-16 and USS Forrestal AVT-59. The training was moved aboard fleet aircraft carriers in from deployment. These classes start having specially designed name tags made to celebrate completion of the class. Later this evolved into carrier qualification (CQ) patches which are for the class members and normally are very politically incorrect and in quantities of less than 50 patches per class. Patch #6 is a standard patch featuring Hobbes. Patches #7 each feature a different Calvin or Hobbes face. Patch #8 looks like another flight school patch for the military. Patch #9 is the patch worn by the "Vandalizers" of HSL-48's Detachment 10 during their cruise to the Mediterranean in 2006. They were onboard the frigate USS Elrod (FFG 55). HSL-48 is a Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squdron (Light) located at Naval Station Mayport in Florida. They are one of six SH-60B helicopter squadrons on that base. Patch #10 features Calvin with a very shocked expression and was sent in by Clive H., whose friend made this 10" leather beauty in the mid-1990s. Thanks Clive! Patch #11 is a patch from 3 FTS 1 Sqn and 107 CSE in the Royal Air Force. Apparently, 15 of these patches were made. Click the images to see larger versions. | |||

| Pez Dispenser: Some folks enjoy crafting homemade Pez
candy dispensers. Here we see Calvin & Hobbes receiving the treatment. The person
auctioning these had this to say: "They are attached to 4.9 no feet stems. These are made
out of high quality clay and are hard and non-brittle. They are painted with acrylics
and have a protective coat of varnish. These are fully functional Pez art
as the heads tilt back and the dispensers can be filled with candy."

| Calvin and Hobbes Guide To Daily Life: According
to one site on the web, "This zine is a collection of Calvin & Hobbes comics and
commentary on how they apply to everyday life. They discuss such issues as
education, gender, work, life, and money in a easy to understand way. Robin Banks
gives detailed and thoughtful insights into Bill Waterson's classic comic."

dress with a Calvin & Hobbes print; this is labelled as a Medium and I think would best
fit a size 10 to 12; it's difficult to say as the cotton is quite stretchy, but the
measurements unstretched are: 34 inch bust, 28 inch at the narrowest point of the
waist, and 27 inches in length (excluding straps)."

Calvin helmet! Our first example is from an unknown source and it features Calvin
holding a helmet of his own and giving the "thumbs up" sign. The next couple of pics
were sent along by Clive H. who writes, "I live in Cambridge, England and have been a
Calvin and Hobbes fan since the late 1980's...I own a Triumph Speed Triple and my
friend, Baz (an airbrush artist) painted the helmet for me in the year 2000." Thanks
