Does Matilda's dad sound like Gandalf, Saruman, or Indy Jones' father?
And why do I have the sudden urge to sit at his feet for hours as he tells stories from long ago?

Old people have the best stories.
I was thinking he might sound more like Lloyd Bridges.
The elderly are quite wise, comes with the territory. But i was under the impression he sounded like the man who voiced the old man from Up. (The actors name escapes me at the moment)
True... true... he could be either of those as well... or maybe Patrick Stewart...
I'm actually one of those crazy people who has always loved to listen to the stories of my elders. :) I can only hope that if/when I get to be an elder, I have at least one or two neat stories to share.
True indeed, we should all be so lucky as to have some good stories to recall in our twilight years. I for one enjoy hearing my dad recount his time in the army, he's been to panama Korea japan amid other places during his duty and hearing of some of the pranks that were pulled in that time are amusing as well. :3
Oh dear looks like Matilda has a sister and dis everyone remember what the last page said about that right?
"Stay a while and listen."
New standards of adorable keep being forged by Ambaaargh. Matilda in the second panel is well beyond cute! Well done and wonderful art and story as always.

That would be Ed Asner - and as a voice actor he gets around quite a bit. He did Granny Goodness in the DC Animated Universe (i.e., Superman the Animated Series, Justice League, etc.)

Ah, that's it, thank you. Not being able to think of his name was really beginning to bug me the last couple of days. And on the comic half of the discussion Matilda seems quite a bit bubbly in her eagerness. XD

Well, she's a lot younger, she's smarter then the average Blue, and quite unlike most other Blue females, she gets a long lasting relationship with her father. Though we know very little of Daddy Matilda, Ed Asner may not be a bad choice: Ed's actually pretty smart and witty in his normal life, and I suspect Matilda's father would be similar. My guess is that she came by her own snarky wit honestly.

Now I can't stop imagining him with a Deckard Cain voice.
