Yeah, that’s Suzy Derkins. This comes from the mentality that if you tease someone at six you’ll be in love with them at sixteen. In reality, there is a strong correlation AGAINST that idea. If you hang out with someone between the ages ~3 and 8, you’re very unlikely to be strongly attracted to them. Some theorize it’s the brain applying the same method it uses to inhibit incest to other non-family people you are exposed to in your early years (of course every scientific theory is just another grad student trying vainly to get published).

Either way, I kind of like the idea of seeing what adventures Calvin and crew would get into as late teens/early adults. Where would the “where does imagination end?” thread go for them? Would Hobbes still seem real (perhaps only in flashbacks)?

Oh, and nice drawing.
