5.0 out of 5 stars Must get starter book., July 30, 2003

This review is from: Garfield Fat Cat Three Pack Volume I (No. 1) (Paperback)

I remembered buying each certain volume for nearly $... each back when I was still in middle school. Now that they have the 3-pack volume out, this is definitely worth buying.

- It saves you money over buying each volume individually
- 3 in 1 fun
- Great way to start collecting the whole Garfield's series
- Great for anyone! Kids, Adults, or even grandparents that love comic books
- Great way to make your kids love reading

Once you buy one, you will want to buy the other 3-pack volumes as well! When you read, be sure to wear a diaper, because it might make you pee in your pants. :)

This review is from: Garfield Fat Cat Volume 1 (Paperback)

My wife and I are both fans of Garfield, and the new, colorized versions of the Fat Cat 3-Packs are great for us. They're made out of better stuff than the old, black & white versions, and, heck, they're colorized. If you're a Garfield fan, you can't go wrong with these.

They're taller and thinner than the old format, so they fit better on a bookshelf. The paper and cover both have a better, stronger feel to them. The only way I can think of to improve it would be to release Garfield in hardcover.

This review is from: Garfield Fat Cat Volume 1 (Paperback)

My 8 year old son is slightly obsessed with Garfield. This book is just as good as all the others. The newest addition to his collection that he's really enjoying is 20 Years & Still Kicking, Garfield's Twentieth Anniversary Collection. Includes sketches from Jim Davis's original sketchbook, photos, trivia. Definitely a must have for any serious Garfield nut!
