He's not wrong. C&H is solid but it's a really Boomer comic in a lot of ways.

Is it a Boomer comic in that the parent's ignore the obvious mental issues Calvin has and blames him for acting out?

My only issue with the Witcher TV show is that Geralt doesn't have two swords. That's like one of his main things.

Calvin's dad is basically the author's self-insert and not shy about his seething contempt for consumerism and capitalism in general. See also how he refuses to license any official merchandise besides book collections. (unfortunately we get the pissing stickers out of that, but that probably just proves his point)

I have absolutely modeled my parenting style around Calvins dad. Everything “builds character” and if you don’t know the answer to something you just make poo poo up.

It's been a long time since I read through Calvin and Hobbes, but I don't remember a single instance of his dad saying "I hate my wife."

Maybe we should make him an honorary Xer. He'd like that. As a private person he'd appreciate that the rest of the world barely remembers that he exists.

This is an homage to C&H’s dad - the invention of a deliberate and infuriating falsehood “CH is boomer comic” to either teach a lesson, to distract from some other issue, or out of sheer laziness and boredom.

Not everyone who grew up in that generation turned out to be a broke brains moron deadset on making sure everyone suffers after they die. poo poo, I was going to say that Bernie Sanders is from the boomer generation but it looks like he's about 5 years too old to be a boomer. I also thought Bill Watterson did artwork for The Rembrandts but I must be batting .000 today. Here's some of his pre-Calvin art for his brother's band, The Rels. https://www.reddit.com/r/newspapercomics/comments/qdngl/could_this_possibly_be_new_bill_watterson_artwork/

Watterson, Gary Larson and Berkeley Breathed are three of the comic artists I respect the most simply because they knew when to quit. Granted, Breathed has started making Bloom County again, but he just does it for fun and tosses them up on Facebook and Twitter.
