Adam: I know he's only eight, but a dad taking his son to a superhero movie is a rite of passage. When he gets to be 13, he's probably not going to want to be seen with me. This is my moment. My sweet spot. A time that we'll never forget, this is payback for when all those people in school made fun of me! But I'll be laughing last this time! And yeah, there may come a day when I won't take my son to the movie... But it's not today! Today it's my popcorn! My son! My 44 ounces of sugar water!

I was totally impressed with Adam’s speech and especially panel 1, until I saw the toilet brush. Adam, uh, you need better gear. Much better gear.

What do you mean “when he gets to 13, he won’t want to be seen with me”? Us teenagers aren’t all a surly, ungrateful bunch of jerks. Have some faith in your son, Adam.
Then again, I watch Star Trek re-runs…so I’m not really representative…

@Josh: ah… that explains the superhero theme and the finger pointing in panel 5 (maybe it’s just me, but it seems like phil loves the finger pointing)
