- mhartl 18y agoGarfield is terrible; Garfield died some time around 1990. I don't remember the year exactly, but I distinctly remember the strip; it was a Garfield-stuffs-Odie's-mouth-with-a-watermelon-rind joke---exactly the same joke that had run a decade or so earlier. But Garfield wasn't terrible. Go back and read the first five or six years of Garfield; at the time, it was a breath of fresh air.
