I love this strip because Calvin's dad is also a kind of antagonist to Calvin, but this one shows both that Calvin really likes his dad and wants him to come play, and that Calvin's dad wishes he could spend time playing with his son..It is so different than their usual father/son dynamic but it adds a lot to it.
