Well, today’s strip marks 400!  four hundred strips.
I was a huge calvin and hobbes fan growing up, and now that I am trying to be a cartoonist on some level myself, I can safely say I have come to admire those strips even more!  Such clean pictures, such interesting expressions, such timeless writing!  Some day, maybe i’ll be even a hundredth as good.  Anyways, they say imitation is the highest form of flattery, and not that an award-winner like that guy needs flattery from a nobody like me, but I draw this as my 400th strip in tribute to the comic strip that really made me fall in love with comics to begin with.
