If Bill Watterson had allowed Calvin and Hobbes to be licensed, there'd be a Broadway musical in which Calvin's dad sings a song about building character

So let's all take a minute to thank Bill for sticking to his guns.

How many named characters are in the entire Calvin and Hobbes series?

I read recently (going through the first anthology again and I got curious) that Susie Derkins is the only character whose first and last name is revealed. That got me thinking about how many characters are in the series as a whole, on or off panel (like when Susie asked Calvin to pass a note to someone, I think she said her name Leslie). They're pretty consistent, Watterson doesn't often bring in one-off characters, there must not be too many. And even fewer with names.

That's pretty rare for a series that went on daily for around a decade.

Who's the strongest character in Marvel/DC Comics that Stupendous Man (Calvin and Hobbes comics) could defeat in a battle?

here's Stupendous Man respect thread

The battle takes place in a empty city

Round 1: Stupendous Man is confident that he will win

Round 2: Stupendous Man is Bloodlusted, for some reason.

(I will ignore the fact Stupendous Man only win moral battles, accord to Calvin)

Which of these characters could Calvin from "Calvin and Hobbes" drive crazy the fastest?

Calvin's parents have decided to hire a new babysitter, and Calvin has decided to make her life a living hell. The character must perform all traditional babysitting duties normally expected to take care off a six-year-old. Calvin wins when the character ends up unwilling to perform those duties, attempts to harm Calvin, or performs any other action which clearly indicates they have failed the prompt. Calvin is not allowed to psychically harm anyone or perform any action blatantly outside his personality. For the sake of prompt all characters are assumed to speak English.
