Wow...

wow, wow, wow, wow,

Looks like I am gonna have fun reading your thoughts in this class over the semester. I was ld enough to read Garfield at this time, in fact maybe too old for I missed this one. Yet, I was around in the mid-80s when everyone bought Garfield folders and book covers for school, and I have to admit, this strip is haunting. The existential crisis of a cartoon cat, and the frame where the reader sees the house is both condemned and for sale is a wonderful play on perspective in the comic, which is quite cinematic in its quick, wide-shot of the entire reality (or unreality of Garfield's being).

This is a wild post, I can;t believe you are knocking them out like this already, we are not even an entire week in, bravo!
