Garfield's Mad About Cats

Since 1980, Ballantine Books has published compilations containing reprints of Garfield comic strips as they appeared in newspapers. These books were originally printed in black and white, but Volumes 37 and beyond, as well as reissues of earlier volumes, have been in full color. Each book collects approximately six months of comics, including the Sunday comics (which were in black and white prior to Volume 37). The titles of these books were styled as double entendres alluding to Garfield’s weight. A special edition of a compilation noted rejected book titles throughout the series. These books introduced the "Garfield format" in publishing, whereby the rectangular books are horizontally oriented to match the comic strip dimensions. Davis has recalled having to invent the format to better fit the books on the store shelves. Volumes 37 and beyond introduced a new, larger, square book in full color, showing the Sunday strips to be formatted in their original size as opposed to the smaller book size. This means that the first panel after the logo box (called the drop panel, or throwaway gag) is no longer printed in the compilation books, but are preserved still on the eBook editions. Each of the original 36 books have been re-released in the new larger format, dubbed "Garfield Classics". • Title — Comics Years — Release date • Garfield At Large: His First Book — June 19, 1978 –

Garfield Complete Works is a hardcover collection of Garfield strips, with both black and white (daily) and full-color (Sunday) comics. The first volume includes archival material and an introduction from Garfield creator Jim Davis. • Title — Comics Years — Release date • Garfield Complete Works: Volume 1: 1978 & 1979 — June 19, 1978 – December 31, 1979 — September 18, 2018 • Garfield Complete Works: Volume 2: 1980 & 1981 — January 1, 1980 – December 31, 1981 — March 19, 2019 In the UK, over 60 Garfield books, mainly "Pocket Books" or paperbacks, have been published by Ravette. The format is slightly different, with the strips presented in a vertical style. In the Garfield 20th anniversary book, however, Davis said vertical stacking was the one type of comic anthology layout he wanted to avoid the most when compiling the above collections. Additionally, adaptations of Garfield television specials have been published in comic format: • Garfield as Himself (1997) contains the following books: • Here Comes Garfield (1982) • Garfield on the Town (1983) • Garfield Gets a Life (1991) • Garfield Holiday Celebrations (1997) contains the following books: • Garfield in Disguise (Halloween special) (1985) • Garfield's Thanksgiving (1988) • A Garfield Christmas (1987) • Garfield Travel Adventures (1998) contains the following books: • Garfield in the Rough (1984) • Garfield in Paradise (1986) • Garfield Goes Hollywood (1987)

Each Fat Cat volume contains the contents of three successive compilations stacked back-to-back. There are two types of Fat Cat books, one featuring black and white strips and one featuring full color strips. Volumes 1 to 12 have been released in black and white, but most have since been reissued in full color. The black and white strips were published semi-annually up to Vol. 11 (compilations 31–33) in 1999. Since then, the publication schedule has slowed: Vol. 12 (compilations 34–36) was published in 2001, followed by Vol. 13 (compilations 37–39) in 2006.
