Postmodern Garfield

Lakini Malich's LiveJournal has an interesting interpretation of the comic strip Garfield. If you remove Garfield's thought balloons, he points out, it goes from an unfunny comic to a rather sad, poignant story about a lonely man who has wasted his life talking to his cat.

He got so many responses to the first bunch of Garfield cartoons he posted with Garfield's speech balloons excised that he posted more "chronicling Jon's spiral into depression and eventually madness. It's what Jim Davis wanted."
