Garfield Undergoes Chickification

Strip by: Manyhills

Jon: What power does he have over you?
Garfield: Tiny little incriminating photographs.
Kid: {holding up a photo of a cute kitten playing with a ball of yarn, and a cute puppy} And of Odie too!
{Jon is gobsmacked}

The author writes:

I was browsing some Jack Chick tracts (whilst listening to "Rock Me Amadeus", natch) and, coming across the middle panel, I realised that a picture of a fuzzy kitten playing with a ball of yarn is possibly the most incriminating a photo of Garfield could be.

This utilises elements from Garfields 2002-09-05 and 1998-08-23 and the Jack Chick tract "The Last Generation".

The use of the Garfield strip in the first panel has a veritable pedigree of two strips thus far (Gracefield and Minus Garfield).

(The middle panel is copyright Jack Chick, and is used here only as a vehicle for parody. Like we need to.)

Original strips: 1998-08-23, 2002-09-05.
