The author writes:

I am writing this on the day Custer's Last Stand got published. I think it's honestly one of my worst strips. I decided to make a better version of it. This isn't the first time I've tried this, either. Two days after the original, I made Custer's Last Stand 2:

Garfield: I don't even want to know where this goes
SFX: KOOOOSH
SFX: POP!
SFX: POW!
SFX: POP!
SFX: SSSSSS
SFX: PLIF
SFX: STAB STAB STAB STAB STAB
Jon: Garfield! Where have you been?!
Garfield: At Custer's Last Stand

Original Garfield strips: 1982-11-21, 1979-12-16, 1979-07-18, 1991-10-02.

And after that, in May, I gave it another try with Custer's Last Stand - Extended Edition:

{Garfield is walking on the street and whistling}
{Garfield sees "Custer's Last Stand" and an arrow written on the wall, indicating that Custer's Last Stand is in the direction of the arrow}
Garfield {offscreen}: YAAHHH
SFX: POW!
SFX: KOOOOSH
SFX: POP!
SFX: POW!
SFX: POP!
SFX: SSSSSS
SFX: PLIF
SFX: STAB STAB STAB STAB STAB
Jon: Garfield! Where have you been?!
Garfield: At Custer's Last Stand
