For someone who doesn't have much use for Garfield, I seem to wind up linking to Garfield stuff a lot. Today's entry is Garfield Minus Garfield, "an even better comic about schizophrenia, bipolor disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life."
A similar effect has been achieved in the past simply by removing Garfield's thought balloons.
Neither, however, holds a candle to the best work Jim Davis ever produced, the only remotely interesting Garfield comic ever, in which Garfield finds himself driven insane by loneliness while he starves to death in an abandoned home in a Jon-and-Odie-less future. This really happened.
