Garfield is, of course, an essential cartoon for growing up. Who didn't love that lasagna-eating orange furball? Cranky and Monday hating, just what we like... But what happens if you remove Garfield from those comics?
I'm not sure about copyright, but someone has indeed produced Garfield minus Garfield, and it's... rather disturbing. So far the strips are just of Jon Arbuckle, and they present a picture of... well, as the site says:
Who would have guessed that when you remove Garfield from the Garfield comic strips, the result is an even better comic about schizophrenia, bipolor disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life? Friends, meet Jon Arbuckle. Let’s laugh and learn with him on a journey deep into the tortured mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against lonliness in a quiet American suburb.
Some strips are just strange, but some work on a whole new level.
But what of Odie? Will we see him suddenly jump off the table for no reason? And what about Nermal? WHAT ABOUT NERMAL??
Definitely check it out.
