On Wednesday, March 18th, BOOM! Studios is releasing BABY GARFIELD #1 (of 4)! This hiss-terical issue is the first of four fun comic book adventures.
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!
