Garfield has got to be one of the most consistently unfunny cartoon strips in the world, ranking right up there with the colossally mundane Family Circus. However, it turns out that if you reprint Garfield comics with Garfield himself removed, they become infinitely more entertaining. The remaining comics (featuring Jon in a variety of solitary scenes) are, in the words of the creator, "about schizophrenia, bipolor disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life". Brilliant.
Here are a few of my favourite Garfield Minus Garfield strips.
