Calvin and Jobs

Flickr user has taken Bill Watterson’s comic strip magnum opus Calvin and Hobbes and continued the tale: this time, young Calvin’s schizophrenic visions take not the form of a philosophizing, anthropomorphic tiger, but as Apple’s own Steve Jobs.

I think the funniest thing about this series is that compared to Steve Jobs, Calvin goes from rampaging, id-driven egomaniac (as in Watterson’s interpretation) to humble and meek. The execution isn’t up to Watterson’s class, but artistically, it’s still a step-up from Calvin micturating on mud flaps.
