:The strip this page is about has had its title subject to mojibake errors. These errors are currently being replicated, as the strip's intended title, and by extension this article's as well, is currently unknown due to the mojibake.

==Explanation==
==The author writes:==
I don't know if there's a canonical spelling of "wah".

Garfield {looking despondent alone with salad}: This salad needs something
Garfield: I think I'll garnish it
Garfield {triumphantly slamming Waluigi's head onto his plate}: WITH A WAH!
Waluigi: WAH!
==Trivia==
This strip's title was hit by a mojibake error in a later site recoding effort; the original title unaffected by mojibake is currently lost to the public due to this, although the strip itself implies it to be a vertically-mirrored L character (presumably either a Greek Γ or a Cyrillic Г) Waluigi himself wears on his cap.

4212: Lyman's Mustache

==Explanation==
==The author writes:==
I made an early version of this submission ages ago, the joke being that the wad of blackness Odie gives to Jon is actually the mustache of Lyman. (Yes, I know Lyman's mustache is brown, not black, but it's funnier this way. Feel free to interpret it as you please.)
The original version of this had Garfield saying a rather boring and linear retort. I changed it up to sound way more interesting.
Original strip: .
==Transcript==
{Odie walks in with a black wad of... something}
Jon: Gee... Uh, thanks, Odie
Jon: What is it, Garfield?
Garfield: I dunno, it may be a clue that could point us toward the true fate of Lyman... but what do I know.

4214: Goofield

==Explanation==
==The author writes:==
The "Hyuck"-ing that Garfield was doing in the original strip instantly brought Goofy to mind.
I was originally going to call this "Warming Up To It, With Goofy", but then I thought of "Goofield" and decided it sounded better.

Jon: Garfield, I know you don't want to go to the farm for Christmas, but warm up to it, okay?

{Garfield is seen reaching into a cookie jar}
{Jon approaches and begins to say something. Garfield smiles garishly, his head somewhat distorted. Jon and his speech bubble begin disintegrating as though from some sort of telekinetic attack on Garfield's part. This leave's Jon's line unintelligible}
{Garfield's head distends to a much greater degree, smiling even wider as Jon and his speech are seen in an even more severe state of disintegration}

4216: Back to 1978

==Explanation==
This strip takes the earlier 3036: Get Younger and rewords Jon's dialogue in the third panel into something more fitting of his 1978 self. As the entire presentation implies, it took two tries for the author to work in a reference to Jon's drawing board; both attempts are included in the presentation.
Despite references to Jon holding a job having grown rarer in official Garfield material over the years, as far as is known, Jon is officially still a cartoonist at least in the core continuity of the comic strips; the author's notes imply he has lost that job, something that has never been officially confirmed in the original canon.
==The author writes:==
This takes SRoMG #3036 and changes Jon's dialogue to something more like when he was a cartoonist. The first try, I ran out of space when trying to put in "drawing board", so it sounds like Jon simply finished a new drawing he wants to show Garfield:
Original strip: .
==Transcript==
Garfield: I don't feel like getting older
Garfield: Maybe if I change the year, I'll get younger on my birthday
1978!Jon {with 1978!Odie, to 1978!Garfield}: Garfield, have you seen my drawing board and pen? I have a new strip to finish

421: Garfield Muniz Garfield

==Explanation==
Similar to the Constantly changing series, this edit replaces the Garfield in the middle panel with something or someone that sounds something like "minus", in this case, Frankie Muniz, the actor who played Malcolm in the television show Malcolm in the Middle, hence the first alternative title. The second is part of the lyrics of the theme song, "Boss of Me", by They Might Be Giants, connecting to the content of the strip, which is, as is the case once in a while, not the usual strip.
==The author writes==
Alternate titles: "Malcolm in the Middle of a Garfield Comic" (or, "You're not the boss of me now...")

4220: Kopifield

==Explanation==
In the original, Garfield brought normal coffee. Here, he brought kopi luwak.
True kopi luwak is coffee made from coffee cherries that have been passed all the way through the digestive systems of wild civets. It is often drunk because of its novelty.
Investigations have found that standards are actually quite loose as to labelling, such that coffee made from caged civets can nevertheless be labelled "wild-sourced". Here, the coffee is entirely free of civet involvement, perhaps implying that Garfield himself was the stand-in for the civet.
==The author writes:==
Of course, it wouldn't be true kopi luwak since a civet wasn't involved, so where did... oh, ew!
Original strip: .
==Transcript==
{Jon is in bed, stretching}
Jon: YAWN
{Hey, that rhymed. He proceeds to the bathroom, where Garfield is standing on the sink, having already prepared a toothbrush with toothpaste for him. Any other strip, I would've guessed hemorrhoid cream or something}
Jon: Why, thank you, Garfield
{But since it was toothpaste, we proceed to the table, because what's the first thing you want to do right after brushing your teeth? Eat, of course! And, as it turns out, Odie is standing on the table with a cup of coffee, a glass of water, and a plate of eggs and... probably sausage patties... in front of him}
Jon: Odie! You fixed breakfast! How sweet
{Garfield, standing on a different table, puts Jon's purple robe on him, over his red-and-white-striped pajamas}
Jon: Thanks, Garfield. It's a bit drafty in here
{Jon is seated in his chair now. Odie brings him the paper and a pair of bunny slippers. Jon is beginning to realize something}
Jon: Uh, thank you, Odie
{Now, as Jon is reading the paper and wearing the slippers, Odie is holding a bowl of... something while Garfield pushes the television closer}
SFX: SCREEEEE
{Odie is holding two flowers while Garfield is holding a coffee pot and coffee mug. Jon's suspicions have grown to where he needs to voice them}
Jon: By the way, boys, this attention wouldn't have anything to do with Christmas coming up, would it?

4222: Lost and Restored

==Explanation==
This strip is essentially a restored and colorized edition of a bespoke one-shot edition of Garfield made specifically for the Chicago Sun-Times to commemorate Garfield's return to that newspaper. The first panel is essentially a dramatization of Garfield being removed from the paper on in an apparent misjudging of Garfield's popularity, the second panel is a depiction of the Sun-Times's comics manager being flooded with calls from fans wanting Garfield, and the third panel is essentially a dramatization of Garfield's return to the paper. It is unknown whether the stickers depicted on Garfield's suitcase shown in the third panel were on the suitcase in the first panel but not shown there due to the suitcase being shown from the opposite side on the first panel.
==The author writes:==
So, one day I was browsing Twitter, as you do, and found this tweet. Ignoring the topic of Garfield's feet, it had a comic I never seen before, most likely about Garfield being pulled from newspapers for a bit. Seeing an opportunity, I decided to 'restore' it, so to speak, by coloring it.
You may use this in your submissions if you please, no credit needed! :)
Original strip: (presumably) 1978-10-16
==Transcript==
{We see a building called "Sun-Times", with a man standing partly outside of the front door, pointing to the right. He is looking down at Garfield, who is crying and carrying a suitcase}
Top Left Box: October 2, 1978
Garfield: WAH!
{Later, we see the man again, this time he is getting angry phone calls, revealing to us that he is a newspaper editor}
Top Left Box: Later...
Phone #1: WHERE'S GARFIELD?!
Phone #2: WE WANT GARFIELD!
{Some time has passed, and we see Garfield walking into a building, presumably "Sun-Times", as we can see a pair of legs standing to the left of the panel. Garfield is pleased, carrying his suitcase}
Top Left Box: October 16, 1978
Garfield: Thank you for having me back, Chicago!!
{Who knew there was a big Garfield demand in Chicago?}

4225: Seam Carfield

==Explanation==
==The author writes:==
Using content-aware scaling on a Garfield strip has been done before, but because I implemented this one from scratch myself, I thought it'd still be worth submitting.
This kind of scaling uses a process called seam carving: to shorten an image horizontally by one pixel, identify a continuous seam going from top to bottom (connecting pixels diagonally counts as continuous) that passes through the least interesting parts of the image, then remove the pixels along that seam. I simply repeated that process until the strip compressed to a size I decided I was happy with.
The outcome isn't spectacular, probably because 1) my implementation is almost certainly flawed and 2) the original strip doesn't have a lot to reasonably cut out. Still, looking at it for a while and then comparing it with the original strip, that one looks positively spacious!
(In hindsight, using a strip like the one would have made for a better joke, because it literally features a content-aware scale.)

422: Garfield EXTREMELY Minus Garfield, More so Than Ever Before!

==Explanation==
In the original, Garfield pointed out that everything was gray and dull, with Jon's explanation, seen here, clarifying the problem. Here, Garfield and his thoughts were removed using MS Paint's Eraser tool by scribbling over it. No effort was made to make it look like he wasn't there to begin with, so there are just big white spaces.

This comic is the same comic as #252, Grey, with Garfield totally erased with Paint's Eraser tool.

4234: Something Involving the Word "Bug" Inserted Into the Title in a Punnish Way

==Explanation==
==The author writes:==
The idea for this submission originated when I first saw today's (as of writing) strip and realized that it could work just as well without Garfield. I hastily redrew it this morning, using as a reference for one of the panels.
Someday, I would like to see an arc where Garfield goes to a cat spa or something for a month just so we can see how all the secondary characters interact with each other.

4235: Gartholemew and the Arbleckle

==Explanation==
In the original strip, Jon and Garfield were sent mashed potatoes and what Garfield guessed was gravy. Here, Jon is sent pink-stained snow while Garfield is sent oobleck.
The pink-stained snow is from the Dr. Seuss book The Cat in the Hat Comes Back. In it, the Cat eats cake in the tub, creating a pink ring around it. Attempts to remove it only spread the pink to other objects, including the snow outside.
Oobleck is a type of fictional weather in Bartholemew and the Oobleck, which is what the strip title is a play on. It is created when the king in the book decides he's tired of normal weather. Unfortunately, the oobleck is sticky, and causes all kinds of trouble.
