Garfield #19
SCORE: 76
Garfield #19 is one of those comic books that I believe came from
Noah when he cleaned his room. He thought it would be great if I could
read and review this comic book from his childhood. The cost of Garfield
#19 was $3.99 back in 2013. In my opinion that is really pricey for the
content contained within this comic book. There are two stories within
Garfield #19. There will be spoilers in my review of this comic book.
The first story in Garfield #19 is Beautiful Balloons. Jon is so excited
to see the Thanksgiving Day parade. He takes his girlfriend, Garfield,
and Odie on this trip. Jon fondly remembers being a kid and seeing a
balloon of Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, a clown, and more. When they
get there they find only balloons of products that can be purchased at
local businesses. This story is twelve pages long.
I find it funny that a comic book that sells for money is complaining
about capitalism and commercialism. You are selling this comic book for
profit. You are not giving it away to everyone. Why complain about
something that you yourself are doing? The double standard is pretty
thick. Of course Hollywood does the same thing to viewers so this is
nothing new from the radicals on the far left preaching their beliefs.
The second story in Garfield #19 is Revenge of the Zombie Meatballs.
This story relates to another zombie food story from a previous issue of
this comic book series. The art work in this second story really drops
down pretty bad. By the way if the credits in Garfield #19 are on the
back of the front cover. The evil zombie food is taken care of in
Garfield #19. So hopefully that ends that. This story is ten pages long.
After the two stories we get a page with some Garfield Sunday comics. We
also get a few pages related to Thanksgiving. Then two more pages devote
to other Garfield related content. Finally there are a couple of
advertisements in Garfield #19. I am confused why we get one story with
decent art, and one with horrible art. There are a few humorous moments
within Garfield #19.
