    Hm. I assume Davis has a clause in there giving him lifelong creative control over the comic strip itself.

    Considering the purpose of Garfield was to make him lots of money, he might just want lifetime royalties.
    Dark does not mean deep.

    I'm thinking that at Davis age 74 he doesn't want to manage the day to day operation of Paws Inc. anymore. He's at an age where he can as he wants , do his cartoons and just not worry about what business with Paws to do next. Guy is already a multi-millionaire , he just gets richer and gets to do cartoons.

    This deal pretty much makes it clear Garfield will continue after Davis passes away as well. The character will never go away now.
