Garfield Minus Garfield, by Jim Davis
Categorized in: 52 Books/52 Weeks
The concept feels gimmicky (the title tells it: remove the titular character from Garfield strips), but it plays out inspired. Removing the main character reveals the darkly funny and truly tortured life of Jon, Garfield’s owner. A fascinating study in what happens when a seemingly crucial element is removed from a work.
