Garfield Without Words

Made by: cappy

Explanation

In the original strip, Jon plugged in his Christmas lights and was happy the fuse didn't blow, while Garfield noticed the lava lamp erupting.

This edit takes away the words. Without looking at the original, we can surmise that Jon is plugging something in, but we're left wondering what. We also don't know why he's happy in the third panel -- maybe he found the outlet -- or why Garfield is turning his head away.

The title isn't entirely accurate, however; the copyright notice and so on are still there where certain other authors would have made sure to remove them, too.

The author writes:

Original strip: 2008-12-03.
