Everyone's favorite mischief-makers and philosophers have somehow crossed the boundary between the cartoon world and the real world in the Calvin and Hobbes Walls series. Unlike Casey Wheldon's illustrations that depict the young tyke and his furry friend as real-life characters, this series puts the beloved pals as fans know them in real life surroundings.
By doing so, creator and redditor nite4awk maintains the same spirit of the comic strip while giving it some real world context. In fact, all the scenes depicted in the Calvin and Hobbes Walls series are typical of the comic books themselves. From forest adventures to bedroom shenanigans, nite4awk has seamlessly melded two worlds for a fun effect.
