Explanation[edit | edit source]

Contrary to what the title implies, Garfield does not appear to be displaying homophobia; his reaction to Jon's quip in the second panel, here given a homosexual interpretation, is the same as in the original Garfield strip to a very-much-straight Jon there.

Original strip: 1979-10-01.

Transcript[edit | edit source]

Jon: We're going to see your veterinarian today, Garfield
Jon: He's one cute chicky-boo. I'd marry him
Garfield: It's comforting to know the high values placed on the sacred institution of marriage are still with us today
