Hello fellow Calvin and Hobbes fans!

About this community and how I post the comic strip… The comics are posted in chronological order on the day (usually) they were released. Posting them to match the release date adds a bit of fun and nostalgia to match the experience of reading them in the newspaper for first time. Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. It really sucked when I missed a day. Only years later, when I got the books was I able to catch up on the missed strips.

Calvin and Hobbes is a daily American comic strip created by cartoonist Bill Watterson that was syndicated from November 18, 1985, to December 31, 1995. Commonly cited as "the last great newspaper comic",[2][3][4] Calvin and Hobbes has enjoyed broad and enduring popularity, influence, and academic and philosophical interest… Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_and_Hobbes

[request] Strip where calvin keeps waking up from dream and free-falling when getting off the bed (lemmy.world)

Do we take requests here? :)

Pretty much the title. I have a childhood memory of a strip where Calvin wakes up from a dream. Upon hopping out of bed he begins free-falling and startles awake… from a dream. This repeats to a point where when his mom calls him down for breakfast he’s absolutely fraught about getting out of the bed.

Anyone able to post or know approximate publication date? I have the large 3-book collection and I periodically browse through it but have had no luck finding it.

I don’t remember that one off hand. Probably recognize it once I see it though. I’m posting a few a day in chronological order so hopefully it comes up for you soon.

If by some miracle someone remembers the (approximate) date it came out I can find it.

Well fuck, I swear I've seen this in my book collection - which right now is piled precariously on the floor my office's closet, under other books I haven't been arsed to find shelves for yet.

Might dig around and see if I can find this strip if no one else does first.
