Ryan Estrada (I Climbed Kilimanjaro) and Sarah Graley (Kim Reaper, Minecraft) pen two short stories in the first issue, joined by artist Axur Eneas (Princeless) and letterer Stef Purenins (Our Super Adventure), to bring Garfield to life of this can’t miss tie-in to the The Garfield Movie from Alcon Entertainment, available in August 2024.
