About this Collection

This trade paperback collects the full 'Heathcliff: The Big Sport' story arc from the early 1990s, featuring the mischievous orange cat as he dives into athletic antics. Along with Heathcliff, the volume includes appearances by his human pal Grandpa Nutmeg and the perpetually exasperated Mr. Schultz, delivering the slapstick humor and chaotic sports-themed gags fans of the series expect.

In "Take Meow to the Ball Game!", Grandpa takes Iggy and Heathcliff to the big football game, where Heathcliff—unexpectedly—steps into the spotlight as the Tigers’ mascot. With time running out, the feline star makes a surprise play that could change everything. Written by Dave Manak and illustrated by Warren Kremer, with inks by Ruth Leon, the cover by Warren Kremer captures the electric moment just before the final play.
