Wait, are you telling me two cunts bitches gets along well? that’s weird
imagine getting cucked by your own cat
Jon and Liz becoming a couple was the best decision the comic had probably made since the early 90's
it is kinda surprising that they haven't had them get married yet
Beneath that lazy, gluttonous exterior beats the heart of a true chad.
According to someone closely affiliated to Garfield, they may do that for the 50th anniversary and end the strip there.
Makes sense since they got together during the strip's 25th anniversary.
Not just the strip.
>Makes sense since they got together during the strip's 25th anniversary.
They got together in 2006, though. Strip turned 28 that year.
I am capable of basic arithmetic.
Are you genuinely asking me why I know 2006 is 28 years after 1978?
Sorry, got my years mixed up, but Jim Davis did speak up about the idea of them getting together during the 25th anniversary due to him asking fans what they wanted to see from the strip and that's what they requested, so it probably just took a while for them to implement it in the comic.
Are you retarded?
yeah they probably had a backlog of already made strips they needed to burn through first
From an Indianapolis interview from 2018:

Holy crap, that's a great fucking comic. Did someone else start writing these? Because god damn does Jon get some good lines now.
BUT THE WHOLE POINT OF THE CHARACTER IS THAT HE DOESN'T KICK THE FOOTBALL
HOW MUCH OF A BRAINLET DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO NOT SEE THAT!?!?!
>I got a life
Fuck man, that hurts.
Pretty sure the live-action movies also had a hand in making Jon and Liz a true couple.
One of Charles Schulz final moments before death was saying how he regretted not letting Charlie Brown kick the football once before ending the strip. The Peanuts Movie from 2015 was basically a consolation prize for him.
There's the strip where Rerun holds the football instead of Lucy and tortures her by not revealing whether or not he let Chuck kick it.
I heard this from a video but wasn’t the reason he never let Charlie kick the football was because he himself never believed he could kick the football?
Bullshit there's only 70
Three are behind Liz's head.
>the vet is the one who lies to the intelligent cat about his weight
aren't vets suppose to, you know, care about the health of a pet?
The whole arc where he and Liz finally got together was the first time in probably years that the strip was consistently well-written.
He didn't regret it, he just felt sorry for him.
>In November 1999, Schulz suffered several small strokes and a blocked aorta, and he was later found to have colon cancer that had metastasized. Because of the chemotherapy and the fact that he could not see clearly, he announced his retirement on December 14, 1999. This was difficult for Schulz, who told Al Roker on The Today Show, "I never dreamed that this was what would happen to me. I always had the feeling that I would probably stay with the strip until I was in my early eighties. But all of a sudden it's gone. It's been taken away from me. I did not take this away from me."[12]
>Schulz was asked if, in his final Peanuts strip, Charlie Brown would finally get to kick the football after so many decades (one of the many recurring themes in Peanuts was Charlie Brown's attempts to kick a football while Lucy was holding it, only to have Lucy pull it back at the last moment, causing him to fall on his back). His response, "Oh, no. Definitely not. I couldn't have Charlie Brown kick that football; that would be a terrible disservice to him after nearly half a century." But in a December 1999 interview, holding back tears, Schulz recounted the moment when he signed his final strip, saying, "All of a sudden I thought, 'You know, that poor, poor kid, he never even got to kick the football. What a dirty trick—he never had a chance to kick the football.'"
He knows he's fat and doesn't want to change, but it's shitty to have people rag on you all the time.
