Strip by: Sonikku A

{A spider in a cast hobbles over to the fat cat. The cat notices}
Garfield: So, I see you have a walking cast
Spider: Yeah
{The spider is indignant, ranting as the cat makes side-eye to the 4th wall}
Spider: I'd ask you to sign it, but I hate your stinking guts, you fat tub of lard!
{We suddenly cut to the spider being in a full body cast}
{Apparently the cat wanted to tease it more, bringing over some magazines}
Garfield: I brought you some magazines
Spider: BITE ME!

The author writes:

In the Garfield from the Trash Bin: Rescued Rejects & Outrageous Outtakes book, a picture of Garfield visiting a spider is noted. It seems to be a scrapped ending of the 2001 strip, so I hacked together the ending using a Feb 2001 strip and 2016 strip for base pose and hands holding the magazine. Admittedly, the abrupt shot of the spider alone in a full body cast works better.

Original strips: 2001-02-25, 2001-07-10, 2016-05-19.
