Strip by: Luke99

{Garfield flees from Odie, his tongue an unhealthy shade of white}
Garfield: JON! JON!
{Jon reads the newspaper as Garfield panics}
Garfield: Jon, that's not a tongue!
Garfield: It's a tongue-eating louse from Ecuador!
Garfield: It attached itself to Odie, and sucked out his blood!
Garfield: Jon, do you hear me?! We have to do something! Jon?!
{Jon sticks his head out, a dour expression on his face as he reveals he too has been infected. Garfield screams in terror, revealing a vestigal parasite has taken root. Goodbye taste of lasanga!}

The author writes:

Thankfully, this thing only infects fish.

Right?

RIGHT?!?!?!

What's... that... BEHIND YOU?!?!
