About Calvin
Calvin, the main character from the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes, is a self-centered boy who doesn’t have a lot of friends. He spends most of his time complaining. Mostly it’s about how organizations and systems work against people. In addition to that, Calvin sometimes has inspiring thoughts like protecting the environment and animals and his belief in the power of imagination. His best friend, and probably his only real friend, is Hobbes.
Hobbes is an anthropomorphic tiger that others see merely as a stuffed animal. He achieved this special title of being friends with Calvin simply due to the fact that Calvin loves animals more than humans, implying that “people can be such jerks.” The only person who really manages to scare Calvin is probably his babysitter. Other than that, Calvin has a rebellious attitude towards everything in life. He doesn’t like to study. He avoids baths and when forced to take them, complains a lot.
