I've got eight slugs in me. One's lead and the rest are bourbon.

Damn, that's a good line.

The tracer bullet saga is full of bangers like that

I like that the implication is that he just randomly shot out the window

He took a bullet too, I think the implication is that someone attacked him and Tracer returned fire. (Realistically, I think it's just a string of tropes and not meant to be a coherent narrative)

I thought he'd gotten shot in the past but it healed with the bullet still in him

This is ART.

Thank you, Mr. Watterson. The world would LOVE more of this if you're ever inclined.

I love that this mixes two different styles of drawing in one comic. Waterson is such a great artist!

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
