Is Jon the primordial basedboy

Did Jim Davis ever make a political Garfield?

They haven't been relevant since '99

Also saged, offtopic

I can not see an attempt at humor

This is the only one I could find

Heathcliff > Garfield

Heathcliff is a kike

Never understood the humor of Garfield. I used to think it was subtle but it is actually non-existent.

the humor is that Garfield is a self-satisfied pig who stuffs his face and John is a cuck that puts up with his crap... like most cat-owners.

The entire comics section of the newspaper has always been a mystery to me and one of the first things that awakened my consciousness to the concept of normie

Garfield without Garfield is the best.

You mean orbital primary?

I think the deepest he got was some of the story arcs he did in the 80's and 90's, but that's about it. I've never seen stuff that connects to current day stuff.

I'm convinced that he paid a writing then design staff to create thousands of strips every few years.

Watterson, however, was able to make ideological strips that touched on deeper political and philosophical underpinnings.

Yeah, Watterson could. For ten years. And then he dropped of the face of the earth, giving nothing else to his adoring fans forever more. Like what, he did some landscapes afterwards? The fuck, man?

explain the basedboy meme please

This dude is so ahead of his time. This is literally like those retarded "E" memese with lord farquad on them.

It's so abysmal and not-funny, it's funny.

Unironically laughing at this.

he had to stop because toward the end he was out of ideas and just repeating his themes.

and he was aware of it, too. he wanted to stop while the strip was still beloved... before it would fade into shit that people hated.

this is a fucking riot dude

Garfield minus Garfield is tops

the humor of garfield is that john is talking to a cat and makes constant references to his own insanity
even the author makes sure to write garfield in a way so that the audience knows john does not know garfield is talking back to him
hes just a weirdo
its funny because theres a guy living in his house acting like an idiot while the world has no idea
this is what the suburbs do to us thats why suicide rates are high in nice neighborhoods
people that don't understand this can't relate because they aren't middle class white people that do this stuff all day then go out and act normal in public

yeah i don't get it, dude has more talent than anyone, and he just decided to... do nothing for the rest of his life?
i get it if he was done with C&H but why didn't he write, or do a different strip, or *something*
very sad

You view it the wrong way, I guess. He told what he wanted to tell with his works and felt no need to go on. The DC watchmen comic is the same, they did not touch it after and it is a masterpiece, a stand-alone accomplishment, as far as I know

Attached: 1366928929077.png (393x391, 216K)

That accountant is definitely Jewish.

Wrong, they sadly made recently another serie of watchmen, prequel. C&H is untouched and remains pure

This particular comic accurately explains why I was exceptional at grammar and spelling/vocabulary for my age, but hated english class with a fury.

Back in the day you could give me a vocab test that was 2 or 3 years above my grade and I'd get 90% on it without even caring about education, but I couldn't write a page worth of essay. Hell my english 12 exam required 2 pages for an answer and I was done with my reasoning by 2 paragraphs.

The comic creater is (((Cathy Guisewite)))

Dude, garfield is based.


you've never red the first 13 years

ah, it was a matter of time I guess but they held on and were true either way I give them my respect

HAHA STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS

guess you never read Herman

I spent way to much time reading archie and garfield comics in the summer. not much to do. I can't remember laughing a single time. It more about having a story and feeling involved with the characters.

I can explain, "lurk more faggot".

clearly you don't get the subtle nuances of the work

Attached: 1493750162126.png (1201x294, 670K)

Garfield without garfield actually being in it makes for a better strip. the depressing life of a bachelor who talks with himself. Much funnier at times. Poor odie. Calvin and hobbes was always better.

It's so᠌yboy Jesus christ newfriends learn to use special characters or return to reddit from whence ye came.

This is fucking depressing

Only intellectuals with an IQ over 120 can understand the subtle nuances of Jim's comics. Once you understand the long-standing set up of jokes and the developments of each character, the context of every new comic rewards the dedicated fans with inside humor. To be fair, Jim Davis is the pinnacle of short-panel humor, and those who disagree are simply contrarians who enjoy mediocre forms of comedy.
Each character represents a personality archetype that anyone can relate to. For example, Garfield represents those of us who are practical, a bit lazy, and pessimistic. Jon is a bit naive and foolish. Odie is aloof and optimistic, and Jon's love interested is a prudish cunt reflecting the modern state of femininity.
Honestly, I feel kinda bad for those of you who will never be able to find the comedic value of Garfield, but I guess not of all us were born with such refined tastes.

i'm glad he stopped while it was still good. it's a magical world is the best way it could have ended and i still get misty eyed when i read the last strip.. i know it's just nostalgia from my childhood.

And i'm super glad he fucked off from the face of the earth. Go paint, kudos do whatever your heart tells you to, Bill. It beats him coming out of the woodwork to tweet that he doesn't like DRUMPF and ruin my childhood.

What's wrong Jow Forums? Too deep for you?

holy kek

i love these videos

needs more racially diverse characters

Jon needs a vasectomy

And that's honestly why I respect and admire Watterson, he sticks to his morals and beliefs and never sold out. Hell he used to leave signed copies of the comics at his local bookstores but stopped because people were trying to sell them online. He only came back briefly to do a few days of Pearls Before Swine

Cathy was the worst, Foxtrot is superior

kek

I think it was kinda funny in the 80's.

thats copyrighted in teh fucking 80s
