THIS is the final Calvin and Hobbes strip, published in December 1995.
“Wow, it really snowed last night! Isn’t it wonderful?”
“Everything familiar has disappeared! The world looks brand new!”
“A new year, a fresh clean start!”
“It’s like having a big white sheet of paper to draw on!”
“A day full of possibilities!”
“It’s a magical world, Hobbes ol’ buddy… let’s go exploring!”
A photograph of sunlight reflected by waterways across the central United States, as seen from the International Space Station in November of 2003. The scene looks southwest from above Lake Michigan across the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers, towards Texas near the horizon. At least two of the smaller lakes at bottom, near the Illinois River, are cooling ponds for nuclear power stations.
