-->'''Critic:''' So we see our main character named Calvin. And no, he's not a ten year old with an imaginary tiger, but he's pretty much on the same brainlength.[[note]]Calvin is six, Critic got his age wrong.[[/note]]

** In the ''WesternAnimation/TheLorax'' review, Critic responded to the extremely reclusive Once-ler with "Oh my god, we finally found Creator/BillWatterson" (HilariousInHindsight when Bill briefly came out of retirement not too long after to guest-draw ''ComicStrip/PearlsBeforeSwine''.)

The next panel shows him mimicking Hobbes's leaping pose (as seen on the cover of ''Homicidal Psycho Jungle Cat'').

* ''Webcomic/AndShineHeavenNow'': during the Millennium attacks of 1999, Calvin, Hobbes, and Susie (who now can see Hobbes for who he really is) go fight off vampires in Washington, D.C., which is where they were for a school trip when the attacks began.

** In [[https://xkcd.com/409/ another strip]], they complain that the sledding failed to be a metaphor for the conversation, and conclude that it's not a ''Calvin and Hobbes'' toboggan.

** When the [[http://www.dorktower.com/2019/01/22/snow-job-dork-tower-22-01-18/ artist complains that his daughter has guilted him into sledding with her, she retorts that appropriating other cartoonists' intellectual properties isn't right either, in a panel which is clearly intended to invoke her as Calvin and him as Hobbes. An apology to Bill Watterson appears under the strip.

** The [[http://www.housepetscomic.com/comic/2008/10/08/philosophical-quandaries-must-wait/ next strip]] has Peanut pulling Grape in a cart while complaining the hills aren't steep enough, and is called "Philosophical Quandries Must Wait".
