And Maggiethecartoonist also provides these two more Garfield entries — with brief comments for each!

Because of his heritage, I assume that Liniers knows more about Picasso than I do. I just don’t have the knowledge of his paintings to know what Liniers intended here.
Just a feel-good comic for your enjoyment.

I have mentioned Macanudo’s gray scale problem at Arcamax several times:
It’s too early to be sure where this will go, but Liniers has started a story arc related to color loss:
So far, my favorite strip was on Tuesday, but Wednesday was good, too.
I am guarding my optimism, but nevertheless still hopeful that when their colors do return, the color will also return to the Sunday strips at Arcamax.

Who better than an imaginary being to have an existential crisis?
The Spanish version also has “chuic”, so could it be just an omission of translating? See if this helps:

From Ooten Aboot, with an illuminating commentary:
In 1874, a similar culture clash happened in real life when Montreal’s McGill University challenged Harvard to a two game “football” match. To McGill, “football” meant Rugby, while Harvard followed “Boston Rules”, a version of Soccer with limited catching and carrying of a spherical ball. The solution was to play one game under each set of rules. Harvard won the “Boston” game, while the Rugby result was a 0-0 tie. Nevertheless, Harvard apparently liked the McGill style and adopted similar rules, so that encounter with McGill may have been the origin of American Football as it known today.
