Chapter 17 | Page 2b: The Ol’ Battle Ax

The #GuigarChristmasCountdown Rolls On

Every day until Christmas, I’m releasing a brand-new holiday single-panel gag — and this year’s batch has already included:

  • Overworked elves

  • Malfunctioning snowmen

  • Questionable reindeer behavior

  • And Santas who are absolutely phoning it in

Next week’s cartoons keep the absurdity rolling. If you’re counting down to Christmas with me… buckle up. We’re not even halfway to the weirdest ones. Catch them on BlueskyPatreon chat, or the Evil Inc Subreddit.

TRANSCRIPT

Rose (from inside the storage closet): “Fine. He loves chicken soup — extra crackers — and a tall lemonade.”

Panel 3
Rose: “Say… do you think you could open the door now? There’s not much air in here.”

Panel 4
Hailey: “If you look in the corner, you’ll see an old battle ax.”

Panel 5
Hailey: “There’s no battle ax in— Oh.”

The Wrong Way Show — Garfield

Get early access, extended cuts, and more at https://www.wrongwayshow.com

Join veteran cartoonists Dave Kellett, Kevin McShane, and Brad Guigar as they show you how to draw Garfield without getting sued. It’s The Wrong Way!

While drawing Garfield, the fellas discuss:

  • Are all modern comic strips just variations of Garfield?
  • Drawing characters with big eyes
  • What the Internet has done to Garfield (Garfield Minus Garfield, I’m Sorry Jon, etc.)
  • Would you take over Garfield after Jim Davis retires?
  • “Yucking Someone’s Yum”
