Today’s comic originally ran on SAVEUR Magazine, as part of their series of “Recipe Comics”.
I’ve posted about my dad before, a few times. Here he is in a 1959 San Bernardino newspaper; here is a painting Carly did of him; here is the thing I mention most often, an essay about how and why I learned to fly airplanes.
The recipe comic is about him too. He’s on my mind a lot. It was just my first Father’s Day as a dad myself, and it colors my memories of him somewhat, changes my perspective.
An immigrant working hard so his kids can succeed is one of America’s stories. As I prepare to be a dad myself, I’m so thankful to this guy. pic.twitter.com/WRVhZr7Wxh

After all, what lesser man would knowingly raise a robot as his own son pic.twitter.com/a6ZhJkqfg8

Also mad props to Dad for being willing to go with the flow no matter whether he understood what I was doing or not pic.twitter.com/hjMlZvI7CO
