As funny as it could be, the snowmen running gag in Calvin and Hobbes was surprisingly dark. See some of Calvin’s most over-the-top displays.
The comic strip Calvin and Hobbes is remembered for a lot of things: Calvin's flights of fancy, his waxing philosophical with Hobbes, and the many antics he'd get into. But if there's one recurring element that's looked back on fondly, it's the dark humor that Calvin would use every time he got a chance to build a snowman.
9 Traffic Calvin’s parents were never shy about voicing their opinions about the creative expressions of their son. Calvin’s public displays of macabre snowman art were usually the source of ire for his parents, either for the negative public attention they drew or the inconvenience they caused. Here, Calvin’s outdone himself, setting up three distinct death scenes for his snowmen.
6 Alien Monster One has to wonder where Calvin finds the time to make his huge and perturbing snowman displays. Calvin’s father wonders the same thing in this strip and reasons that the school must not be assigning enough homework. Here, Calvin has created at least ten snowmen, all running for their lives from a horrific-looking alien monster with tentacles and teeth. What really makes this collection so off-putting is the details in Calvin’s creations.
3 Psychologist Out of all these snowmen that Calvin’s created in his life, the one in this one is surprisingly tame. Calvin’s made a few and gathered them around his parents’ car, making it seem like the car has hit a snowman and others are huddled in shock. The true dark aspect of this strip is Calvin’s father suggesting to his wife that their boy see a psychologist. Is it possible he’s speaking in jest? Almost certainly.
