Explanation[edit | edit source]

This strip was based on the fact that the 2012 original Garfield strip incorrectly recalling the first depicted meeting between Jon and Liz, and the author sought to correct it. The author used Liz's first line in the Garfield strip in this correction effort.

This strip was published the day before 1046: Continuity Fixed Garfield, which used Liz's first complete sentence directly spoken toward Jon, interpreting the line used in this strip as being spoken to another person. The disagreement between this strip and #1046 ultimately inspired 5433: When Jon Really Met Liz, which went even further back into Garfield's predecessor strip, Jon.

The author writes[edit | edit source]

For those who are wondering the second thing was, "Liz."

Original strips: 1979-06-26, 2012-03-02.
