This strip, originally about Garfield using an inflatable Santa to give Jon a hug, has been reworked so that the giant Santa is now apparently the real deal and stabbing Jon to death with a candy cane, followed by the final panel being reframed as a crime scene and a singer of The Who being given Jon's offscreen line. The strip's title makes use of italics to make a Christmas-themed pun on "won't get fooled again".
This strip was fast-tracked through the strip queue due to being a fit for the Christmas season; only fifteen days separated this strip from the original Garfield strip.
The author writes:[edit | edit source]
I thought the original could use a "better" pun.
And a CSI reference.
And a murder.
Plus The Who. Hopefully the Grinch gives back their presents and carves their roast beans.
