About the series
A warm, Swedish-language holiday tradition from the late 1980s and early 1990s, Gustaf [julalbum] collected seven seasonal issues from Semic Press, each featuring the gentle, lasagna-loving humor of Jim Davis’s iconic comic strip. While the series stars the famously grumpy orange cat, these annuals offered a cozy, family-friendly dose of winter cheer, with Davis as both writer and artist throughout the run. It remains a fondly remembered piece of Scandinavian pop culture, bringing Garfield’s deadpan wit to a festive audience.
