Watterson is great in that he lets people interpret Hobbes however they want. But for his part, I think he said that he personally thinks of Hobbes not as a toy that magically comes to life, but Calvin simply views him differently. That might sound mundane and boring, but I think it’s kind of beautiful. And again, it’s not the right answer, just one perspective!
Outside his imagination/how he sees the world, how did Calvin bind both of his own hands? IIRC, his mother eventually finds him like that…
I mean, he could just not really be all that tide up and just be imagining a part of it.
Hobbes obviously tied him up.
I’ve always seen Hobbes similar to the toys in Toy Story, but Calvin is the only one he shows himself to.
