5488: Splinxfield

==Explanation==
==The author writes:==
I realized today it had been ages since I did my last Doctor Who SRoMG, indeed it turned out to be the first one I ever did. It's time to fix that. This time though, it's a pretty deep cut.
Okay, so in 1985, during Colin Baker's first full season as the Sixth Doctor, Doctor Who and the Mines of Terror was released by the company Micro Power on the BBC Micro, and on the Amstrad CPC & C64 in 1986. It is a rather bizarre entry in what I suppose is an early example of what we now call the "expanded universe" during the show's actual production (okay, actually I can't find any details as to whether it was during the infamous 1985 hiatus or not, but it did come back that time, so...?). It features Daleks-that-aren't-Daleks because of rights issues, the only appearance of the Anthony Ainley Master in 8-bit, and completely out of nowhere, a female robot cat named Splinx. She is one of the most ridiculous out of-nowhere characters in the "EU", during a time when in these sort of spin-offs, especially on brand-new but very limited technology that had to get out to the public ASAP, you got no character development, just what's in the manual, if you even had it.
But that all the more makes her the EU character I want to see canonized into the Doctor Who TV series. Out of every single one of them. Give me a sleek, realistic, fully-flexible, hyper-intelligent snarky cat; and bring back the often cringeworthy but nevertheless popular tin dog. I know some of you would prefer this in the audios with Colin Baker (CHAOS!), but guess what? It DID happen... set in an alternate universe where The Doctor is called The Warrior (or The Wanderer? The wiki says both and won't elaborate, as far as I can tell among all those ads). She does not talk and if you can't have a talking robot cat when you are doing an audio adventure, what's the point? Strike three, Big Finish (no I will not elaborate).
Anyway, I hope tardis2334 does not mind. This was a hilarious idea and totally in character for Jon. But in this case that is ol' Sixy himself. Chaos, true chaos. Think of the possibilities, even with a new Doctor. (Hey, if Beep The Meep can get in...)

5494: A Dream-Like Delicatcy

==Explanation==
Garfield's original nose-based craving was for corn; here, he's craving Magic truffles, an item from the video game EarthBound found by wearing a Piggy Nose. The title makes a play on the description of the Magic truffle.

==Explanation==

The Line Bomb is a power-up in the Bomberman series that allows you to place all your bombs in a row, pretty self-explanatory. For some reason Atomic Bomberman on the PC renamed the power-up to The Spooge, so I made this.

==Explanation==
==The author writes:==
By way of explanation. (And because I understand that opening random YouTube links is not something everyone does - Link is to a YouTube upload of Strong Bad from Homestar Runner singing his infamous "The System Is Down" song, where he beatboxes an entire techno track so that he [actually The Cheat -Ed] can turn his bedroom/office light on and off and pretend he's in a nightclub. A search for "Strong Bad System Is Down" should turn up what I'm talking about.)

549: The Bayeaux Garfield

==Explanation==
This comic recreates one specific strip with the Historic Tale Construction Kit (presumably because of the spell-themed dialogue) to create a comic that looks like it was made in medieval times (ala the webcomic Bayeaux Rhythms).
==The author writes:==
Recreations of a strip using the Historic Tale Construction Kit* and inspired by the webcomic Bayeaux Rhythms*. The stand-in for Liz's examination table is apparently some sort of medieval stove, hence the licking flames at the bottom.

54: Censored Garfield

==Explanation==
The original strip had no censor bars. Without looking, what do you think was under there? ...Really? You think it'd get published on the comics page like that? Well, the real answers are "had", "mad crush", and "nose", so get your mind out of the gutter.
This strip serves to illustrate just what entirely needless censoring can do. You see the censor bar, and assume that there must have been something worth censoring, so your mind fills in the blanks. Just seeing the original strip, however, many people would never think of those things. (Of course, the author did, or this strip would not have been made.)

{Jon excitedly announces to his cat}
Jon: Garfield, I decided I should read more!
{Jon takes out his green book. If one looks through the low resolution, they can see that the book bind says Ulysses. He begins to read, as Garfield stares unamused}
Jon: "Stately, plump Buck Mulligan came from the stairhead, bearing a bowl of lather on which a mirror and a razor lay crossed. A yellow dressing gown, ungirdled, was sustained gently behind him on the mild morning air. He held the bowl aloft and intoned:
'Introibo ad altare Dei'.
Halted, he peered down the dark winding stairs and called out coarsely:
'Come up, Kinch! Come up, you fearful jesuit!'
Solemnly he came forward and mounted the round gunrest. He faced about and blessed gravely thrice the tower, the surrounding land and the awaking mountains. Then, catching sight of Stephen Dedalus, he bent towards him and made rapid crosses in the air, gurgling in his throat and shaking his head. Stephen Dedalus, displeased and sleepy, leaned his arms on the top of the staircase and looked coldly at the shaking gurgling face that blessed him, equine in its length, and at the light untonsured hair, grained and hued like pale oak.
Buck Mulligan Peeped an instant under the mirror and then covered the bowl smartly.
'Back to barracks!' he said sternly.
He added in a preacher's tone:
'For this, O dearly beloved, is the genuine Christine: body and soul and blood and ouns. Slow music, please. Shut your eyes, gents. One moment. A little trouble about those white corpuscles. Silence, all.'
He peered sideways up and gave a long slow whistle of call, then paused awhile in rapt attention, his even white teeth glistening here and there with gold points.
'Chrysostomos'
Two strong shrill whistles answered through the calm.
'Thanks, old chap,' he cried briskly. 'That will do nicely. Switch off the current, will you?'
He skipped off the gunrest and looked gravely at his watcher, gathering about his legs the loose folds of his gown. The plump shadowed face and sullen oval jowl recalled a prelate, patron of arts in the middle ages. A pleasant smile broke quietly over his lips
'The mockery of it!' he said gaily. 'Your absurd name, an ancient Greek!'
He pointed his finger in friendly jest and went over to the parapet, laughing to himself. Stephen Dedalus stepped up, followed him wearily halfway and sat down on the edge of the gunrest, watching him still as he..."

5510: Consistency

==Explanation==
This strip has Garfield plotting to fill a "pinata" with lasagna more in line with his established character, whereas in the original Garfield strip he was plotting to fill a piñata with nacho cheese. It is unknown whether the author didn't know how to properly render the word "piñata" (there is no easy way to type the "ñ" character on many anglophone computer keyboards) or if the author used a font that didn't properly support the "ñ" character (some Garfield-style fonts, including the Garfield Sans font linked to from Square Root of Minus Garfield's Submit page, do not); the original Garfield strip did make use of the "ñ" character.
This strip was notably published on the 46th anniversary of Garfield's ; the original Garfield strip had run the day before the 44th anniversary.

Thought of this while looking at 2015-09-07. I was initially going to simply put it next to 1982-06-28, but the opportunity to make it a normal 3-strip comic was too good to pass.
Of note is that all three panels ended up bearing Jim Davis's signature. Coincidence? I think not — this is but a tiny portion of what Jim has been trying to tell us all along!
