Garfield As a Real Cat / Garfield Removed

Garfieldreal_2 As if the daily Marmaduke Explained wasn't enough postmodernism for your morning coffee, now another cartoon animal icon seems to be getting tamper treatment with unusual frequency these days. First I saw this take on Garfield which actually casts him as a real cat Garlfield2_2 (top, via Cynical C Blog). Then, Magpie offered Exhibit B (bottom) in which he is wiped from the strip completely. In full disclosure though, this is just another excuse to post a link to Meatus Murder's  "El Garfield" (MP3), possibly the only time you'll ever hear Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds song altered to cast a spotlight on an overweight lasagna-eating feline. Though with Blixa Bargeld's culinary talents, there may indeed be many more of those kinds of songs in their catalogue.

Can those guys do the Dagwood sandwich treatment with "15 feet of Pure White Snow?"

You ought to mention the Silent Garfield movement too. I encountered it first, but I couldn't vouch for what came first.

I was going to blog this last week, but held off - and glad I did because I didn't have that snazzy song.

Since Magpie doesn't link to it - here is the source of the Garfield Minus Garfield cartoons. There are a slew more, all of them completely depressing.

Oh, there are more Real cat Garfield's as well!

I see your "Garfield as a real cat" and "Garfield removed" and I raise you a "Garfield Randomizer"! Ha, take that! http://www.dougshaw.com/garfield.html

Forget these Johnny-Come-Latelys. It's time WFMU recognized Barfield as the ultimate Garfield parody:

It took me weeks to figure out some of the Meatus Murder lyrics...bizarre that a lot of the words on a parody record sound drunkenly garbled when the lyrics are the whole point.

"the springs go springing out the chair" - genius

I bet MM would sign on to the FMA, judging from Keith Rupture's attitude...
