As a kid I would always love to read the Sunday paper to catch the comics. Forget the front page news, or even the sports pages. I’d always find myself going directly to the “funnies” and reading the classics like Dilbert, Peanuts and Garfield. Just the other day I came across this great blog - where the premise is basically as the title suggests. They’re old Garfield comics, without any Garfield in them. After reading through a few of them I couldn’t believe how funny they actually were. What a great idea! Who would have guessed that when you remove Garfield from the Garfield comic strips, the result is an even better comic about schizophrenia, bi-polar disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life?

I thought that I would share a few of my favourites - all the others can be found here.
