Garfield & Cie #9

A sun-soaked Garfield sprawls flat on the sand, tongue lolling and eyes half-lidded in absolute heat-beaten exhaustion — the beach backdrop making it clear this orange tabby is having absolutely none of summer's sweltering charms. Chaleur d'Enfer ("Hellish Heat") is the perfect title for this ninth volume in the French Garfield & Cie series from Dargaud, capturing the lazy, sarcastic spirit of everyone's favorite lasagna-loving cat in 2012 style. If you've ever felt personally defeated by a hot day, Garfield is here to commiserate.
