pretty cool that someone realized this
"Garfield Minus Garfield is a site dedicated to removing Garfield from the Garfield comic strips in order to reveal the existential angst of a certain young Mr. Jon Arbuckle. It is a journey deep into the mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness and depression in a quiet American suburb."
I laughed out-loud at July 7th post. May 21st is a fun one, too.
Its interesting how the empty frames pace the comic, and make it more abstract. And the absence of a comic punch makes some of the strips very, very sad.
