Lyman

A familiar face from the earliest days of the Garfield comic book run, Lyman stepped onto the page in 1981 — right at the Bronze Age height of comics' creative boom — courtesy of the strip's creator Jim Davis. Published through Random House, he shares those early Garfield adventures with the lasagna-loving cat himself, the lovable Odie, little Nermal, Jon Arbuckle, and Pooky. His appearances are few and collectible, making those early issues — particularly Garfield #3 where he first emerges — genuine finds for fans who love tracking down the complete cast of a beloved series from its very beginnings.
