That cat also happens to be very marketable
Hey
HEY
he also likes kicking the dog off the table
I don't even think he draws it anymore. Too busy with merchandising
he's also president of the confederacy
Jon is still poor though ;_;
That's not what Jim Davis looks like.
AND HE HATES MONDAYS
>i gotta have a good meal
That’s not even the right Jim Davis.
Jim always draws himself as a balding man with a ponytail
Wrong net worth too. The cartoonist Jim Davis is worth 800 mil.
>i shitpost for free and hump a bodypillow
its not just the cat but the brand
>800 million dollars from drawing 3 panel comics in a dead medium
What a world
Visual arts run on reverse meritocracy, the shittiest the product and the bigger the hack you are, the more successful you'll be.
>wah, some guy made money off of brilliant marketing and striking a market at the best opportunity
It’s funny how mad people get at Jim for being smart with minimal effort.
yes the lucrative brand that has all the great characters like jon, and odie and even nermel. $$$$$$$
He's selling garbage that was never funny. He got lucky once twenty years ago and if the free market ever cared about quality he would be homeless.
Most of that is probably from merchandise royalties
I remember back in the 90s there was a store in the mall entirely dedicated to selling garfield merch
>he thinks Garfield is about the comic
he literally always intended Garfield to be a brand. The comic is just there as a bonus.
Jim Davis is the literal opposite of Bill Watterson, and he's based as fuck for embracing it.

I just threw up a bit in my mouth. Even if you're being ironic, know there is now a place for you directly in Satan's bedroom.
You guys just don't understand the GENIUS of Garfield.
More than you ever did, faggot.
>people can't respect a man for succeeding in business
Watterson is based too. But that's not going to stop me from loving Jim Davis.
It's ok to admire people like Bill Gates or Zuckerberg. But Jim Davis is a fucking hack and Garfield is soulless garbage.
Jim Davis is self-aware and didnt let success and money inflate his ego. I think he wrote the preface for a Garfield Minus Garfield book once
Why is Jim standing in front of a bunch of cool kicks?
This, if it weren't for Jim's ability to market the cat on almost everything, he wouldn't have a millionth of that much.
>But Jim Davis is a fucking hack
That's the whole point. He's never claimed to be a great cartoonist; he's not even trying to be. He set out to create a mascot who could make him a shit ton of money, and he did it.
Wrong Jim Davis. OP's post is just epic bait.
Jesus fucking christ. That is insane. How do you make even a billion dollars off of fucking Garfield?
L E G E N D A R Y
One of the biggest IP's in the world. Everyone of the hundreds of millions of comics, cups, plushies, calenders, not to mention the cartoons, throws money his way.
>tfw Bill Amend hasn't exploited FoxTrot for all its worth not out of morality but just plain laziness
