Garfield comic without Garfield

Posted by Alex in Cartoon & Comic on February 27, 2008 at 6:30 pm


Garfield minus Garfield is a surprisingly funny fan-mod of the popular comic strip, where Garfield the cat is erased from every panel, leaving a flustered and somewhat crazy-looking Jon Arbuckle:

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?

    That was actually kind of scarily insightful.

    I remember seeing something like this before, except it was just Garfield’s speech bubbles removed, so it really was just Jon talking to his cat.

    I remember reading a thesis about whether or not Jon can hear Garfield or if he even exists at all.

    First they came for Lyman
    Next they came for Nermal,
    I didn’t speak up when they took Odie
    and After they took Garfield,

    There was no one but me.

    Hilarious and tragic.

    If only somebody could make Doonesbury funny, but I suspect it’s beyond help.

    like they say, you can do anything at all to any garfield strip and it instantly makes the lame series funny. remove garfield, redraw him as a normal cat, switch jon with conan the barbarian. anything.

    I’m still trying to figure out what “bipolor” disorder is.

    Actually, removing Garfield’s thought bubbles was the first one of these and it works much better than just removing Garfield, if you ask me.

    See also Lasagna Cat.

    The members of SomethingAwful.com’s forums have been doing this for ages. It is hilarious, though.

    Garfield as “Realfield”
    http://juannavarro.wordpress.com/2007/12/21/realfield-like-lasagna-too  /

    This “replaced with amazing replica” would work with other corny strips. Imagine if we replaced “The Lockhorns” with “The Realhorns”!

    Ugh. Bluhd! Not funny!

    I always wondered if John could hear Garfield - after all, the cat is thinking.
    It’s like The Family Guy - sometimes they understand Stewie, sometimes they don’t.
