Garfield Comics With Garfield Removed

Garfield Minus Garfield

Garfield Minus Garfield shows what the Garfield comic strip looks like when Garfield the cat is removed, leaving just Jon Arbuckle. The results are often quite bizarre.

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 and methamphetamine addiction in a quiet American suburb.
