Garfield by Jim Davis for February 05, 2023

Odie can read now?

“You get nothing!” -Willy Wonka

The only surprise for Jon, would be for Garfield to wait outside with Odie.

Odie, you sap.

I haven’t seen the title panel like that since December 10 1995.

How do you keep an idiot in suspense?

Sigh! Same, Odie same.

On the back of the sign it says how to keep an idiot busy.

I just came from Garfield Classics and wow does Odie look different! I like the old Odie better actually. Idky JD decided to make him standing on his back feet all the time. Well he’s wearing a watch today lol I guess he (& Garfield) has just gotten more and more anthropomorphized over the years

Well, the sign never said who would get the surprise.

Of course this had to happen.

The plot thickens.

Clearly Garfield did this on purpose.

I almost feel slightly sorry for Odie here

Garfield is so mean to Odie at times. LOL

Aww, poor little guy!

Some surprises are more subtle than others.

Odie will probably stay there until the day he passes on.

Remember the time Joe Biden spent several hours at a sign that said “Lots For Sale” and there was nothing there? OK. Neither does he. Remember, that is.

Where did he get the watch?

I was half-expecting something bad to happen to Odie.

If a “funny” video says “watch to the end.” I bail right there.

That’s the surprise?

Very clever, there, Garfield, but cruel. I hope you didn’t hurt yourself making and setting up that sign, or did you call Signs, Inc and use Jon’s card to get it done. I vote the latter.

I can bet that Jon is gonna ask Garfield where Odie is.

Could this work on reducing car traffic?

I’m sure Jon knows something is going on. Just like kids being into mischief when they get quiet…

I wish the payoff were better. You’re slowing down in your old age Garfield.

C’mon, the surprise was for Odie…

Odie can read?

poor Odie being abused…again.

Not funny Garfield.

this is a bigger troll than that duck who keeps asking for grapes!
