Explanation[edit | edit source]

For this strip, the colors of Garfield are inverted; thus, instead of the comic lacking Garfield, it has a Garfield in negative.

The way the title—in addition to the draft title in the authors' comments— is phrased is yet another reference to Garfield Minus Garfield.
