Strip by: Xindaris

Jon: Twenty-three!
Jon: Loose-leaf paper! Green! Cleveland!
{Garfield, who has until now been staring impassively into space, tilts his head ever so slightly upward}
Jon: Elephant!

The author writes:

I was struck by the urge to do this the instant I saw the original strip (which published the same day I'm submitting this, for those who want to measure the size of the slush pile). I thought about changing Garfield's line in the last panel, but ultimately I think removing it altogether gives a better result.

Original strip: 2023-09-29.
