Heathcliff First Prize!

George Gately's Heathcliff First Prize! (1984–1987) was a two-issue comic from Berkley Books, collecting classic adventures of the mischievous orange tabby. Written and drawn by Gately himself, the series offered a generous helping of the feline's slapstick antics and his rivalry with the bulldog Spike. While brief, it stands as a tidy, creator-driven snapshot of the long-running newspaper strip's mid-1980s heyday.
