Garfield by Jim Davis for May 20, 2023

He who holds the newspaper is in charge!

Spider, never argue with a cat and a newspaper, it’s bad for your health.

All power to the newspaper!

I tried to do that once, but I had to buy a new computer after I broke the screen.

Is it still “fake news” when it beats you up and gets you down…?

Black and white and read all over…….

OK, this is the only time that I like Garfield, because I can’t stand spiders.

Most spiders are my friends. They eat other bugs, so I leave them alone.

I’m not convinced he’s even the highest ranking spider in the house

Was so…

Bad idea to challenge the cat with the newspaper.

Since the summer (and season) is almost around the corner, there’s one thing we need to worry about: Insects

A rolled up newspaper makes a great training aid for the unruly.

No, Jon’s in charge.

Never underestimate the power of the press, especially when rolled up and used as a bludgeon.

Who has a newspaper anymore?

The six-legged spider still lives

Smack again!

Talk about having delusions of grandeur.

Wanna be in charge? The spiders need to flatten Garfield.

Is he really a leader if none follow?

and here, I started to think that the spiders were smart enough to stay away from him…nope.

Cute…

See what making ‘flat statements’ gets you…?

This comic is why I’m not afraid of spiders.

That poor spider.Flattened so many times !Miraculous powers of recovery.Perhaps medical scientists should investigate ?

since when, spider?

Well that’s NEWS to me

After swatting a spider or an insect, make sure it’s actually been squished/killed.

This could be applicable to either side in the current US budget battle….

Not being political: you go assign the characters yourself, smile, and keep it to yourself.

That’s it Spidey, never give up, until they scoop you up and throw you in the garbage can sealed in a plastic baggie.

No you aren’t spider.

He must be an insect spider because he only has 6 legs instead of 8

Spiders get a bad rep from the 50’s sci-fi radiation effect movies!!Pet stores used to sell tarantula’s back in the 1970’s.

Last act of defiance.
