This is classic Garfield humor with his blend of big appetite, sarcasm, and plain humor. Among my favorite strips are: Jon trying to find a date for New Year's Eve from his little black book (amusing but can seem dated in this era of online dating), Garfield being a cat and getting on top of the book Jon is reading, the mice's wedding (that was just cute), and Jon discovering he has a chest hair (yea, just one). For me, these are good comics to read anytime. Overall, I am really liking these, specially in these larger volumes.
