A Little Levity, If You Please..
The Hubster just sent this link to me.
No, I’m not going to tell you what it is. Them what has the twisted mind will understand and appreciate the gift they have been given.
Personally, I always thought Garfield had some sublime moments, like the strip where Garfield sticks his head in a mouse hole. When he takes it out, he’s got on a wig and makeup. The last panel reads,”The strange mice are back.” There was a Sunday page wherein Garfield removes a mouse from it’s hole, winds its tail around it like a top then jerks on the tail and the mouse starts spinning. It spins all the way over to where Jon is reading the paper with his coffee. The mouse grabs onto to the coffee mug then leans over and pukes into it while Jon looks on in horror. The inevitable “GARFIEELD!!” comes in the last panel.
It’s what comedy is about! Strange mice and vomit!
I’ve been looking for that strip virtually forever!
Do you perhaps remember when it ran so I can look for it in a collection?
