    Dog days of summer? More like the cat days of summer in these silly—and sometimes sandy—Baby Garfield adventures!

    Pack your sunblock and shades! It’s time to catch a wave of synthetic nacho cheese as Garfield discovers the true meaning of relaxing at the beach (visiting the snack bar) in Baby Garfield’s First Beach Trip written by Jordan Morris (Youth Group), art by Thien Pham (Family Style).

    But summer heat brings summer showers. Get your flashlights ready to join Garfield and Odie on a mission to save Jon from a zombie cat-napping in the slightly spooky, but always sweet Baby Garfield’s First Thunderstorm, written by Katie Cook (My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Nothing Special), art by Jay Fosgitt (My Little Pony).
    Jordan Morris is a writer and podcaster who has worked in TV, film, video games and (most importantly) COMICS! He created and co-wrote the 2x Eisner nominated graphic novel Bubble, based on the Maximum Fun podcast of the same name. His second graphic novel, the YA horror-comedy Youth Group, was a 2x national bestseller. He's also written stories for Marvel, IDW’s Godzilla and Archie: Chilling Adventures. jordanmorris.net

    Thien Pham is a graphic novelist and educator based in Oakland, California. He is the author and illustrator of the graphic novel Sumo, the illustrator for the young adult graphic novel Level Up, written by Gene Luen Yang. His graphic memoir, Family Style, has been on
    numerous best-of lists and was a finalist for the ALA YALSA Award for Excellence in Nonfiction for Young Adults, and won an Eisner Award for Best Graphic Memoir. Follow Thien on Instagram at @thiendog.

    Katie Cook is the creator of the Nothing Special webcomic on Webtoon and the oldie-but-goodie webcomic Gronk: A Monster’s Story (which was one of the first webcomics archived by the library of congress!). She spent several years as one of the primary writers on IDW’s My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic comics to the point that they made her a pony on the show (really). Then there’s all those books she has illustrated and written for a tiny franchise called Star Wars. Maybe it’ll take off one day. Time will tell. She has also written and drawn comics for Marvel, Disney Publishing, BOOM!, and many other publishers. Katiecandraw.com

    Jay Fosgitt was the winner of the 2024 National Cartoonists Society Award for best graphic novel (Bodie Troll Vol. 1, So Cute It’s Scary). In his almost twenty-year career as a cartoonist, Jay has drawn for Marvel, Image, BOOM!, The Jim Henson Company, Archie, IDW, King Features, Andrews McMeel, Penguin Random House, Hasbro, and Disney Publishing. In 2025, he released Bodie Troll Vol. 1: Brigands, Boons and Balderdash! through his Cheeseburger Press imprint. Jay Lives in Metro Detroit with his little girl Sparky. jayfosgitt.com
