Irresistible first volume of Garfield's beginnings in the late 1970s. Although his more recent appearance is slightly altered, he is consistent in his love for lasagne, hate for Mondays, and love of sleeping. Reading this as an adult (I first read Garfield in my youth), I expected to discover a philosophy I could have missed as a child, but although Jim Davis doesn't explore this, the book remains a harmless fun read, if a little boring. I was glad some of the strips were in colour. ( ) Whille Garfield starts out as an ugly, giant beast in the first strip, by the end of this volume he has evolved to be pretty much on model as the cute, chubby cat we know today. The humor meanwhile has hardly evolved at all. The gags established in this book are the same ones we see in the strip today, from Mondays to lasagna to all the seven deadly sins, with an emphasis on gluttony and sloth. Jon's sexual harassment of Garfield's veterinarian, Liz, ages the most poorly. Most of the major characters are here, with Jon and Garfield sharing a house with Odie and his owner Lyman (soon to disappear without any explanation). Other familiar faces include Pooky the teddy bear, Nermal the cutest cat, and Irma the waitress. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
