Jon Arbuckle's mailman. In one strip he wears a suit of medieval armor to protect him from Garfield.[3] He can be seen with either yellow, white, or brown colored hair.

He was on Garfield and friends for the first four seasons. In "The Mail Animal" He was fired because the postmaster thought he was being weak, only to have Garfield treat him worse, resulting in the postmaster begging Post to return to work.

In The Garfield Show episode "Mailman Blues", he goes on vacation in Hawaii while his replacement Stu does the job for him, but before Herman Post goes on vacation, he warns Stu about Garfield, describing him as a "monster". While Herman Post is on his vacation, Garfield torments Stu. However, Stu quits, and Herman returns early only after receiving a raise. He reveals that this happens every year. It is shown that this has been recurring for 13 years.

In Garfield and Friends, the mailman was voiced by Gregg Berger.

A television personality noted for his extremely loud and piercing greetings, most notably "HEEEEEEEY, KIDS!" He appears to be a parody of Bozo the Clown, and in the cartoons shares an exaggerated raspy voice with the Bob Bell portrayal of Bozo (much in the same way Krusty the Clown from The Simpsons does; Krusty's voice was likewise based on Bell's[4]).

The character made his first appearance in the animated TV special Garfield's Halloween Adventure.

He was first mentioned in the comic strips on March 13, 1985. Previously, other different clown characters were seen. Binky was first seen in the comics on September 15, 1986, then appeared in person on September 17, 1986.

Hubert and Reba are an elderly couple who live near Jon. Hubert is often portrayed as an older man, while Reba is often either unseen or tending to household chores. The couple made an appearance in Here Comes Garfield. In the animated cartoon, Hubert is portrayed as hostile towards Garfield and Odie (which is not entirely without justification as Garfield tore up their yard and knocked a bunch of flowers and dirt on Hubert's head), calling the animal shelter personnel to remove them. In the strips, Hubert is less hostile towards Garfield.
