Garfield is alive to the fullest : Ho! Ho! Ho! You are fat!
The weight remains inexorable: it indicates Garfield’s extra kilos and does not subtract a half! It puts the cat in a little festive mood. Just like us (in such a situation, and also at the thought of the upcoming end of the calendar year …). Reading the first part of The Fat Cat Three Pack , you can’t help but get the impression that Garfieldhe decided to improve relations with the mice living in Jon’s house – not only does it not make their existence difficult, but also craves this contact – he calls meetings, plays cards with rodents and watches TV with them. In addition, the fat man hires an intern Biff, who obediently performs the tasks assigned by his supervisor, in fact, he knits a sweater to … then sell it and buy food (Biff appears only a few times: May 4-7, 1998). The first part of The Fat Cat Three Pack is also unique for another reason – Garfield celebrates his twentieth birthday. Fortunately, he has friends who will take care of improving his mood on this special day (over the years, the title character is getting worse and worse with the next candles on the cake …).
Garfield is feeding the cat : I can stop, but I don’t feel like talking
Garfield moults, which puts Jon in a moody mood. Every time it seems to him that the process of periodic shedding of the outer layers of the body is over, his mentee quickly corrects him. In the second part of the volume, the happy owner of two four-legged friends (and nearby mice, spiders, birds …) reflects on the meaning of life, makes many phone calls to potential loved ones and, just like a human, feels sorry. Garfield shows no sympathy, does not try to support him, and is even more cynical, sarcastic and less forgiving than usual. The passing of time turns Jon into a very desperate man in colorful shorts, while Garfield sheds all empathy in the meantime. which – as it seemed to me – he had in previous volumes (he does not even spend New Year’s Eve with his family …). Now the male self-eyed cat sleeps less (this also translates into the time spent with his beloved Pooky), but he drinks a lot of coffee, does not avoid eating and teases the household with a smile on his face. Besides, he is bothered by Mondays, flies, the presence of Nermal, as well as weather turmoil, that is, no changes.
Garfield. Voracious Death Mask : Not listening to your inner weirdo
Despite Jon’s protests, the mice are not going to leave their home. Garfield is also not looking to change the animal pact. While the mouse party is in full swing, Odie allows the cat to engage in small acts of aggression. Without wasting time being offended, he reminds his friend that his twenty-first birthday is approaching! Yes, Garfield is celebrating twice in this volume and most importantly, he gets two big presents (which should put him in a really good mood!). America’s favorite cat continues to “befriend” the creatures of the neighborhood – meets new animals that teach good manners, considering himself an expert on this matter. In addition, he tries to win a prize in the competition once again, he lays in the armchair for hours and spends “nice” time with the postmen.
No limits – we laugh!
The most recent volume is three notebooks – Garfield lives the full moon , Garfield feeds the cat , and Garfield. A mask of voracious death – which will surely make the reader smile more than once. At the same time, it will be extremely easy for the recipient to identify with Jon, who is quite a lot in the reviewed volume and, what is important, he is haunted by bad luck (then we do not laugh …). Reading the comic, the reader will surely notice that the (yet) unhappy cat changes its colors a bit – these are small computer changes that we will also observe in the next volume. All in all, Fat Cat’s Three-Packas always, met my expectations. Jim Davis shows the world in a crooked mirror, but he does it with taste and I can assure you that you should not be bored while reading it.
