Garfield by Jim Davis for January 20, 2017

I’ve not heard of Binky since the 1990s TV series “Garfield and Friends.” (Biff, Jon always dresses up like a clown when he goes on dates… just sans the makeup.)

“Have you heard about the clown I’ve been going out with?”

Still not as creepy as Ronald.

Hasn’t Jon tried to get a date in that outfit?

Wow! When was the last time “Binky” was mentioned in the strip?

Jon actually HAS tried that way…and failed. Sorry Biff.

Is he a Tannen too?

Oye judgin’ by the amount of makeup and clothing some of the girls I’d dated were wearin’ it was truly hard ta be sure if they WERE girls? LOL

I though all the clowns left to take jobs in government!

The ladies like a man with big feet.

I hope Biff washes his hands before he starts making burgers.

Biff might appreciate this:

There hasn’t been a Binky reference in this strip for almost 31 years

One of Jon’s outfit makes him look like a clown, and yet he has Liz.

Has anyone told Biff he’s supposed to take off the costume when he leaves work?

I’m surprised that Garfield didn’t say (or think) anything snarky.

So is this Binky’s chain? I hope he shows up. I love him!

An impressive tongue twister by Biff in the first panel, though.

A Binky the Clown reference. Nice.

There was another character named Biff who appeared in 1998. The character was a cat just like Garfield. https://www.gocomics.com/garfield/1998/05/04

You would think that he would take it off on the dating scene.
