Garfield may have debuted in his first comic strip on June 19, 1978, but you'll be surprised to learn that the famous cat actually appeared in a strip that predated Garfield that ran from 1976-early 1978, called, Jon.
Jim Davis centered the strip around Jon Arbuckle until figuring out it was the cat that had all the best jokes. So the comic underwent a shift in focus, a name change, was sold into syndication, and the rest is history!
This book collects all 105 Jon comic strips from the pre-Garfield era together for the first time remastered, complete and in order for Book 0! You'll be amazed at the evolution that took place before the first official Garfield comic strip began!
