Meet the tiny troublemaker before he became the lasagna-loving legend! A baby’s big little moments are some of the most special and cherished experiences for doting parents—pet parents included! Join the sassy but oh-so-adorable baby Garfield in navigating a series of universal “firsts” in this paw-sitively silly new comic series purrfect for Garfield-lovers, feline fanatics, and readers of all ages. Featuring two short stories brimming with cattitude, writer Grace Ellis (Lumberjanes) and artist Asia Simone (Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur: Wreck & Roll) capture Garfield’s very first word, while writer Michael Northrop (Dear Justice League) and Rob Justus (Superman’s Good Guy Gang) commemorate the often overlooked, but just as moving milestone…first hairball! This hiss-terical issue is the first of four fun comic book adventures.
