'''Safari Al''' was perhaps the most obscure of [[Calvin]]'s alter egos. Safari Al appeared on [[April 2]], [[1986]] in a one-joke strip involving Calvin's room resembling a jungle. In it, Calvin himself took on the Safari Al persona, while his [[mom]] took on the persona of a large, King Kong-like simian.

Interestingly, the hat Calvin wore as Safari Al resembled the hat he donned in the first strip, which makes it possible that Safari Al appeared before Calvin truly did. The strip's plot--trapping a tiger--certainly fit within the character of a jungle adventurer.

Safari Al is an obscure alter ego of Calvin's. He appeared once in a weekday strip involving Calvin's room resembling a jungle for being so messy. In it, Calvin took on the Safari Al persona, while his mother translated into a large, King Kong-like simian. In later strips, where Calvin and Hobbes go exploring or digging, Calvin looks like his Safari Al alter ego[1]. He is not, however, referred to as such.
