Garfield Minus Garfield

WHATEVER

The premise:
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?

The Answer:
A brilliant skewering of one of pop culture's most inexplicably popular icons.

I'm ashamed to admit that as a child, I worshiped the Garfield books. I must have had twenty of them. Thank God I eventually smartened up and moved onto The Far Side and Calvin and Hobbes.
