Calvin (Calvin & Hobbes)

(If someone would add a picture, that would be very helpful)

Calvin, named after theologian John Calvin, is the main protagonist of Calvin and Hobbes. He is highly intelligent, though without any self-discipline or concentration, a six-year-old boy with a vivid imagination and a habit of getting into trouble and adventure. The comic centers around Calvin's life, his troubles, and his adventures, with Hobbes alongside as his companion.

Calvin is characterized by his imagination, philosophy, extensive vocabulary, social awkwardness, and mischievous behavior. Calvin is very cynical and usually gets annoyed with Hobbes. His first piece of dialogue was the first line of the strip and his last line of dialogue was also the strip's final line.

Calvin and/or his alter egos appeared in almost every strip of the series ever printed and published, however, there are several strips he does not appear in, those being where his parents or other side characters reflect on Calvin or recent events (such as Calvin's home being broken into).

Why He's Loathsome
1. Calvin acts spoiled sometimes. 2. He will often drag his imaginary friend Hobbes into stuff he doesn't want to take part in. 3. He escaped school once. 4. Calvin is a sexist kid, as shown by the times he drastically annoyed his neighbor Susie. 5. Most of the time, Calvin has little to no respect for his parents. 6. Most of Calvin's snowmen showcases involve them all being slaughtered, most of them being slaughtered, or snowmen looking at a gruesome death. Talk about a future psycopath! 7. He tried to make a snowman with a penis once. 8. He will break stuff and make up totally unbelievable stories of something else breaking it. 9. He will do whatever it takes to torture Rosalyn, his babysitter that's just trying to get paid for college tuitions.

Redeeming Qualities
1. Calvin can be nice most of the times. 2. He can be pretty relatable in some comics. 3. Calvin & Hobbes' charm would be non-existent without him.
