Subtract Garfield, Add Depth

This is the most serious, heartrending, sympathetic, tear-jerking cartoon ever.

Well... it might be, if you didn't know what it was before.

I recently learned about an ingenious creation known as "Garfield Minus Garfield." It's very simple- someone took Garfield out of the comic. Of course, considering that Jon talks to Garfield, you know what this means...

This is the story of Jon Arbuckle. His is a story of schizophrenia, bipolor disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life. 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 in a quiet American suburb.
