    You have to work first before you retire Garfield.

    Nothing stays fresh forever. You try keeping a daily strip going for the same length of time.

    Hmmmmmm, good point. Keep in mind: Jim Davis has been cranking out Garfield strips since June 19, 1978 , i.e. more than 34 years. Remember: Cathy Guisewite retired on October 3, 2010 after 34 years of creating the strip “Cathy”.

    Not funny, but nice pun. Besides, the whole Paws team has a lot of artists, writers, editors, you name it that makes up a strip. Plus, Jim makes strips 8-10 weeks in advance, no more, no less. There’s NO way that this strip’ll retire after this date. NO WAY, JOSE

    I’ll take a villa too please. Garfield has gone the same route as Snoopy I think.

    Garfield will never retire even if they do begin rerunning the strips like they’ve done with others. I still remember the first ones and how funny they were. Bring it on and let Mr. Davis retire.

    I hope that this isn’t an indication by Jim Davis himself that he’s thinking of hanging up his pen, so to speak. Garfield will live on forever of course

    Guys, I think it was just a joke. Jim has about 10 more years of writing Garfield before he retires. When or if he retires, before he does, he’ll pry teach his son or someone to draw this. If it’s HIS work only, then I will think Jim Davis retires when he is about a little bit from 80 years old. I think Garfield was saying he was going to retire from being annoying. He’ll go up a step or step down to be MORE annoying or being a little sensitive. Hopefully nothing is wrong.

    I, too, hope Jim will continue with the “Garfield” strips. I’ve read every comic, and look forward to more in the days to come.

    I think that Garfield was speaking in the slightly British sense, retire meaning “go to sleep to rest for the night”.

    Retiring would require you having a job in the first place Garfield.
