Arbuckle del Ocho |

Explanation[edit | edit source]
In the original strip, Jon wore a plaid aviator hat, which Garfield added to his list of things about Jon that annoyed him. As explained in the script, the author recolored Jon's hat shirt to make him resemble the title character of El Chavo del Ocho, adding a strap to the outfit as well. The title is also a reference to the show.
The author writes:[edit | edit source]
Yeah, this is one of those "saw the original strip, couldn't resist" scenarios. Honestly, though, I think Jon is more of a Don Ramón-type character.
Original strip: 1992-07-06.
Transcript[edit | edit source]
{Jon walks across the room in a getup not unlike that of El Chavo, much to Garfield's surprise}
Trivia[edit | edit source]
