The Daily Mirror began reprinting Garth, in colour, in February 2011, until July 2020. A number of the stories are heavily edited and strips omitted, so the strip total is different on each one compared with the original presentation.
The presentation of the strip in the printed paper and on the Mirror web site also differs from the version published on the Garth – Comic Strip Facebook Page, an unofficial page dedicated to the character on the social media platform
Strip dates given are those of their original appearance in the British newspaper the Daily Mirror, first compiled by Geoffrey Wren and Ann Holmes and updated by Ant Jones and Philip Harbottle.
Special thanks to Alan Jeffries for information presented here on recent reprints.
