Product Description:
It’s Garfield–as you’ve never seen him!
Come savor the existential adventures of Jon Arbuckle in Garfield Minus Garfield. Based on the phenomenon ignited by Dan Walsh’s hilarious and wildly popular webcomic (beloved by The New York Times and The Washington Post, and hailed as “inspired” by Garfield creator Jim Davis), Garfield Minus Garfield takes everyone’s favorite fat cat out of the picture, leaving us with only the lonely ennui of Jon as he’s left to voice thoughts about his own existence into an empty void.
With a Foreword by Dan Walsh, creator of www.garfieldminusgarfield.net

- Hilarious For Garfield Fans & Foes AlikeThere's something slightly tragic and absolutely hilarious about Garfield once you take out the title cat. We're left with poor, pathetic John talking to himself; on his own, he becomes more of an existentialist philosopher than the fall guy for Garfield's sarcasm.
In a few places, editing the dialogue differently would have made John's newly-discovered monologues even funnier. Some of his responses to Garfield are omitted, presumably on principle, even where they would have made hilarious ... Read More

- He wasn't there all alongTaking Garfield out of "Garfield" is a clever concept, and also a pretty insightful recognition that -- as with Charles M. Schulz's "Peanuts," but on a much less profound level -- there's an awful lot of sadness at the heart of this strip. When you start from the premise that cats can't talk, and that therefore Jon never shares in Garfield's interior monologue or the (alleged) punchlines of the jokes, all you're left with is a man struggling with failure, rejection, and the occasional runaway electric toothbrush. ...

- John stands aloneThis is a funny, unique book. I am so happy that either Jim Davis gave permission to have this book done or that he is doing this book. This is a great book for those with a sense of humor.

- What a sad life for Jon . . .If you remove Garfield, Odie, Liz, Arlene, Nermal, Pooky, Irma, Mom, Dad, and Doc Boy, and only have Jon Arbuckle remain in the comics, then what you get is a sad life for the man. Dan Walsh, the creator of the Garfield-minus-Garfield website, has given us a shocking and clever alternative to Jim Davis's creation. Instead of him talking to his pet Garfield, Jon now talks to himself, and sometimes to an imaginary friend. It now looks more like a fight against loneliness. And it's just as hilarious as the original strips! ... Read More

- Garfield Minus Garfield... minus the laughs? Not a chance!Let me get this out of the way first: I am a huge fan of the Garfield Minus Garfield website [...]. In retrospect, I am surprised noboby had thought of it earlier; Jon Arbuckle was talking to a cat this whole time, and with Garfield's removal, Jon's sad, lonely life becomes shockingly apparent. Some strips make Jon appear depressed, while others, he appears to be losing his mind. For almost a year now, Dan Walsh has been removing Garfield from the strips, and I cannot thank him enough for making me laugh with nearly every ... Read More
