Insight Into the Tragedy of Comedy

I am nearly unapologetic in my appreciation for Garfield. It is something that I have grown up with, particularly the television specials and the show "Garfield and Friends." Yet I realize that the Garfield comic strip is not what it once was. It's rather like watching and aged boxer, a pale shadow of the greatness that he once was.

In my aimless online wanderings, I came across
this.

It gets to perhaps the true genius behind what Garfield has become. The humor lies underneath. It is dark and sad. Poor Jon...





P.S. Apologies to Patrick Swayze for the unfortunate timing of my last post...
