Today's Character
Calvin's sardonic, oft-annoyed father (whose actual name has never been revealed) loves to instill responsibilities and outdoor activities in his son, believing they will help him build character and become mature.

---

Yes

---

Yes. The best character in the strip aside from Calvin and Hobbes themselves. The dry humor he adds is always appreciated.

---

Yeah
---

Yes, of course. He's probably who Hobbes is based on in Calvin's imagination.

---

Yes

---

Yes, he builds character.

---

Yes

---

Yes

---

Yes

Yes

Yes. He's a reasonable enough fellow, a good foil to the insanity that is Calvin.

---

Yes

Yes

Yessir

Yes

HECK yes, he's the GOAT Dad in my opinion!

Yes

My mom used to have a strip taped up in the kitchen because it reminded her of my grandfather. ("Dried prunes! Do we have any?")

---

Yes absolutely

Best is when he trolled Calvin about the Christmas tree. Or when Calvin imitated him
---

Yeah. The older I get the funnier he is. When I was a kid I didnt get it, but man, I get it so much now. I love the strips where hes telling him some nonsense like about the black and white photographs and the world being in black and white back then.

---

Yes. Favourite character in the series.

Yes


---

ya

---

Bump

---

Yes

---

Yeah

---

Hell yes. I liked him even when I was a kid for some reason. About the only thing I dislike was his "we camp on a desolate rock now" thing, which might've inspired my own stepdad.

---

Yes

---

Yes

---

Yep.
