This blog is purely dedicated to my favourite cartoon characters - Calvin and his stuffed tiger Hobbes. If you dont know enough about Calvin and Hobbes, let me give you a brief introduction about them and their world:-
Calvin – Well no introduction needed for those who know and love him. If you are not in that league, here is a brief character sketch of him. Calvin is a hyeractive 6 year old kid. He is very smart, very imaginative to us but in his world he is considered a weird, stupid, crazy boy. Calvin has no friends, except his stuffed tiger “Hobbes” (we’ll talk about him later). Calvin has dreams, fantasies and a very vivid imagination. He is a great philosopher and posses great wisdom though it is rarely used. Calvin loves to be defiant.
Hobbes – Calvin’s stuffed tiger which miraculously comes to life when no one is around. Calvin spent major part of his time with hobbes. He is Calvin’s best and only friend. They share ideas, they fight, and they laugh together. To the whole world, he is a just a stuffed toy but in reality, Calvin is incomplete without him. Both complement each other. Though we may call the living Hobbes as a figment of Calvin's imagination but Hobbes depicts the sensible side of Calvin. Again this shows that calvin shows his sensible side only when he is alone.
Susie – Calvin’s classmate, neighbour and arch-rival. She is one person whom Calvin loves to hate. Susie is a good girl and a brilliant student. She is very neat, does all her work properly and is an ideal child. All her qualities are exactly contrary to Calvin and this makes them poles apart. Infact she is the reason for Calvin to found the club “G.R.O.S.S” which stands for “Get Rid Of Slimy Girls”.
There are more characters in Calvin’s life – his Mom, Dad, Teacher. We will talk about them soon.
