One Offs Set #31: SCIENCE!

Post by RandomGeekNamedBrent »

I envy Tiger's metabolism. He could be the key to solving obesity without diet, exercise, or surgery.

I always assumed Garfield's periodic diets are what kept him at a constant weight. :P

Tiger burns off the excess calories through his hatred for Bino.
Tiger burns off calories exercising with Chuck Norris.
Tiger doesn't digest food: he annihilates it
Tiger doesn't eat: he supports the gross national product
Tiger eats a Dunkan every morning to keep in shape

Let's see so far we have King and Tiger making that face which at the same time is both disturbing and cute. I wonder how many other dogs will be making that expression in the future? A smiling Bino would be too much though, the anger in his characterization wouldn't lend well to the effect.

All we need now is another pet in the Arbelt household to play Odie. We can't have a Garfield based character without Odie.

Come on Rick! Please. *Begs Rick to do this sometime in the future*

All Odie does is being so dumb that Daisy could outwit him with a single 'Hi! I'm Daisy!"

Bino has been known to show a genuine, cute smile...

It's also a missed fact that Bino's favorite food is also pizza as stated in his debut. Not to mention he was also supposed to be based on an earlier version of Garfield.

Speaking of that, what exactly is Marvin's allusion to the Garfield comic?

Oh, and Pap is the Housepets' Nermal.

Bino isn't incapable of feeling emotions other than anger. He's not even evil - kind of rude, at times, and certainly with control issues, but those things do not preclude one from knowing and expressing happiness (or other non-hostile emotions).

What the.... wow. Tiger would waste away to nothing if he were to go on a diet. He is a machine!! :shock:

I wonder who's idea it was to make the journal. Quite interesting....

Second panel has my favorite Marvin face ever.

Marvin is supposed to be Odie, but as an antithesis.

Aww, Peanut tried! Give him some credit....

Grape is very jumpy. Why did she sleep on the couch if she knew he was around? :P

Love the Peanut faces.

I love the simplicity of this strip. It was definitely about time for another disruption of Grape's beauty sleep. :3

I like how Rick managed to hide the arms almost completely in this newest strip. A pattern developing in the future, maybe? :roll:

Speaking of the previous one, which I feel the need to comment on: it was genuine gold. Like, refined, classic Housepets/Garfield/Calvin & Hobbes and all that. I loved it!

Grape is starting to endure Peanut's waking up? One can only assume what kind of godly powers this will unlock in the future. Where she will sleep for so long only Peanut can wake her up. Grape on the ceiling fan is cute <3

Also... Fus Ro Dah!

Normally, I'd consider myself a sadist for even thinking about it, but since it's a cartoon I think it'd be hilarious if the ceiling fan were on. x3

Grape using two pillows... her laziness has no limits.

But at least Peanut tried to be gentle. Now we know he will never do that again.
