It’s the first Sunday of 2026, and I’m already feeling a little behind. But that’s okay because there’s still time to get ye olde act together!

After a good, latter-day run, Calvin and Hobbes has reverted back to some early strips (at least we got back to Galaxoid and Nebular purchasing Earth for a set of leaves, though).  The opening wordplay for getting home at the end of the school day is great, as always.

Meanwhile, Jason in FoxTrot is keeping alive the great tradition of snow sculptures started by Linus and continued by Calvin.  No monsters, but still a fun visual gag.

But it’s Caulfield’s attempt at some science for the self  in today’s Frazz that stands out the most.  Visually interesting with a conversation that is interesting to follow.  His hope, of course, it probably one that most of us share at some point or another.
