What would happen if you took Garfield out of all the Garfield comic strips? What would you be left with? Perhaps the existential angst of a certain young Mr. Jon Arbuckle. As Jim Davis, the man behind this idea states, “It is a journey deep into the mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness and depression in a quiet American suburb.” Check out the blog when you have some time and you’ll find Jon talking to himself. It’s funny, it’s entertaining, and well, it’s a little sad and depressing. Cool. Here are a few of my favorites.
The book comes out on March 17. It’ll take the best of the blog entries and put them into one nice book.
