@Jason844@JeremyMallin yes, and part of that is the design. Garfield is poster art ready, it's a more graphic and smarter form of design optimisation in draughtsmanship. He doesn't need toned colouring to describe three dimensions, he's really carefully weighted for descriptive form and composition, and Jon Davis standardised Garfields poses to suit multiple orientations and frames.
Alan Davis, who worked for 2000ad, Marvel and DC had a similar knack.
@Jason844@JeremyMallin in fact Garfield is so meticulously designed his only real design change was from early version round eyes, to oval, so you can do more with the eyelids for a subtle increase in expression.
