Calvin and Hobbes

So, what is this cartoon all about?

Possiby: Hobbes, the tiger, is a parent. Easy-going and understanding but...with awesome power, and you have to watch out.

King Kong? A version of Moby Dick? Don't contend with powerful forces of nature? Or is it just about miscegenation? King Kong should have mated with Queen Kong? Stick with your own kind? Big powerful hairy stupid hairy apes should keep away from our cute little blondes?
