less Garfield is more

by fledgling otaku on May 20, 2008

I’ve been proselytizing Garfield Minus Garfield for a while now, so I’ve seen them all. However the latest is I think a true masterpiece, in how the presence of Garfield was subtle to begin with, and how the omission truly changes the meaning of the strip in a profound way. It’s brilliant. I’m stealing it.

In related news, Garfield creator Jim Davis knows about G-G and actually approves. That’s just cool.

Hi and thanks for the mention,
Also very flattered you liked the latest stip well enough to steal it, stealing is the best form of flattery in my book!

Travors

But I made something related to g-g that cracks me up every time I look at it.
