The author writes:
Every multiplication table I've ever seen goes up to at least 10, so I took the "Garfield Times Garfield" concept (SRoMG #326, by Andrusi) and expanded it.
I carefully counted the panels of the early strips to find the 100th one. It doesn't help that early on, there weren't always 7 panels in a Sunday strip (and hence, 25 panels in a week).
Also, did you know that the strip debuted on a Monday? When I started making this table, I hadn't known that.
Please forgive the blurriness of the Sunday panels. I couldn't find them in the same size as the others.
Believe it or not, the title was an afterthought.
