Strip by: Nyperold

Jon: Here, Garfield, ...beg.
Garfield: Odie... a dog named Odie...
Garfield: I'm sitting on it.

The author writes:

For the first Garfield in Haiku strip, David McLeish rewrote the dialogue to fit the syllable structure of a haiku.

For this one, I took a first panel that had 5 syllables, a second panel that had 7, and a final panel that had 5, and put them together. It definitely makes for a different story...

Original strips: 1978-06-28, 1978-08-10, 1978-09-02.
