Description

Here’s a detailed description of the comic along with the text:

Panel 1: A young boy, who looks frightened, is lying in bed with a red blanket. He has messy brown hair and is animatedly saying: “Dad! I had a dream that a giant monster wolf was chasing me!”

Panel 2: An adult man, presumably the father, shows surprise. He has a mustache and glasses, and he leans slightly forward. He responds: “Oh my gosh! I had the same dream!”

Panel 3: The boy and the father are now in a more serious discussion. The boy looks curious, while the father appears thoughtful. The father asks: “In your dream was the wolf a metaphor for the unceasing all-consuming passage of time?”

Panel 4: The father shakes his head. He replies: “No, just a wolf trying to murder me.” The scene shifts to a shadowy figure that suggests contemplation as he adds: “Ahh, to be young.”

The comic uses humor to explore the contrast between a child's fear and an adult's existential reflections, all while depicting a casual, relatable dialogue.
