592: Gustaf som Gustaf: Something Fishy
| Gustaf som Gustaf: Something Fishy |
 Made by: Morbror Oa |
Explanation[edit | edit source]
As in the mentioned SRoMG strip, Gustaf is Garfield's Swedish name. In the second panel of this edit, Gustaf turns into a tin of King Gustaf brand smoked sprat in tomato sauce. Sprat is a herring-like species of fish, and pickling involves brine, which means Jon's guess isn't quite correct on either front, but not terribly far off on one.
The author writes:[edit | edit source]
Another episode of "Gustaf som Gustaf". Yes, there actually are cans of herring that look like that. That's how this strip makes... well... not sense... but... you know...
Original strip: 1979-09-28.
Transcript[edit | edit source]
{Jon closes his eyes while Gustaf V turns into a can of King Gustaf smoked sprat in tomato sauce.}
Gustaf V: MEYOW.
{The tin can turns into Gustaf V again.}
Jon: Let me guess. You were in the pickled herring again.
