Yeah, this is not the first time that Garfield wore a disguise in an attempt to catch something (whether it’s birds or trying to swat flies), only to be mistaken for the thing he was disguised as by other cats, or in this case, spiders. Also, how dumb are those spiders to mistake Garfield for a giant fly? Why couldn’t Garfield have asked the spider to get rid of the fly, like he did that one time? Yeah, I’m asking too many questions here.
I know that this cartoon has a large following so I’ll ask: Are you still having trouble with accessing your comments properly? (Bell in the upper right corner with a red circle and number in the center of it). It’s been almost a week. I’m not going to comment anymore until they get it fixed (Please, keep the applause down…)
A colleague showed me a trick to kill flies – they (mostly?) take off perpendicular to the surface they’re on, so hold your hands apart directly over it, then smack them together and hopefully you’ll time it right and get it. But then you’ll want to wash them…

And after all that, an exterminator is still out of the question.

ANother reason for Garfield to dislike spiders. (Nice use of the American Sign Language alphabet in the title panel.)

Either that was one fast web or Garfield escaped way too slow.

Wow… this is one of the funniest comics from Garfield since a long time!

He was caught in the web, apparently. Also, why isn’t he using a more secure , non cloked, site?

I like the use of sign language in the marquee panel. Well done!

This is a great way to see how bad your spider infestation is. Just have a plan on how not to get caught.
