GARFIELD COMIC'Z
He's a wisecracking, nap-taking,coffee-guzzling, lasagna-loving,
Monday-hating, dog-punting, spider-whacking, mailman-mauling fat cat.
He's Garfield...the world's funniest feline!
Born in the kitchen of Mama Leone's Italian restaurant in 1978,
Garfield has grown into a worldwide (and we do mean wide) celebrity.
His antics with his feckless owner, Jon Arbuckle, his drooling doggy
pal, Odie, and his beloved teddy bear, pooky , bring laughter to
millions daily.
But what's so appealing about a tubby tabby with a rude attitude?
What makes Garfield so lovable? It's simple...people relate to him
because he is them. "He's a human in a cat suit," as creator Jim Davis
likes to say. Garfield loves TV and hates Mondays. He'd rather pig
out than work out; in fact, his passion for food and sleep is matched
only by his aversion to diet and exercise (he prefers lay-downs to
sit-ups). He'd like mornings better if they started later. Coffee
("Strong enough to sit up and bark") is the only way to start the
day. What could be more human?
People also identify with, and revel in, Garfield's sassy brand of
humor. Garfield is quick-witted -- and the first to admit it. He never
hesitates to say the things that people -- young or old -- would like
to say, in a way they'd like to say them. But he's never socially
unacceptable....just tastefully outrageous! And, after all, as
Garfield says, "Maturity is overrated."
But Garfield is not all sass and sarcasm; he also has a soft side.
He really loves his teddy bear, Pooky, and deep down, he loves
Jon and Odie, too (just not as much as he loves himself, of course).
It's easy to see that Garfield is a well-rounded character. Whether
he's feeding his face, snatching a snooze, or just spouting a
one-liner, Garfield is a classic -- and classics are always in
style.
