Wheezer is the nickname of an old friend of Jon Arbuckle's, who appeared in a week of comic strips from 1990. He and Jon went through pictures from their high school yearbook (such as the prom, biology class, etc.). He reappeared in 1992 for the class reunion, where he stole Jon's pants. He refers to Jon as "Carpface" (a nickname earned due to a class photo of Jon covered in zits).
During Wheezer's stay, he and Jon often made funny noises and gestures, as well as reminiscing events from their school days. Garfield tended to be repulsed by them as a result.
