Looking at Bill Watterson’s Calvin and Hobbs, I would argue it is a modern version of Juvenal satire in terms of both being able to criticize everyone while still claiming any reader or listener as an informed audience. Each of Watterson’s comics presents a specific attitude or trend in individuals which is directly criticized by Calvin and or Hobbs much the same way Juvenal went around blatantly confronting individuals during his time. Both go after everyone and anyone with the comics specifically addressing the school system, parenting behaviors, modern family dynamics, normal behavior, and so on. A wonderful example can be seen in the comic linked below. In this strip, Calvin’s parents are lamenting the loss of polite behavior in society
