Strip by: Lubaf

Jon {reading from a book}: Once upon a time, there was a boy named Sparky who created a comic strip with very simple art.
Jon: Nobody ever found it funny, and it was so bland nobody ever objected.
Jon: And he died the day before his retirement strip ran.
Garfield {to Snoopy, holding a 100th birthday cake}: I always admired how completely you sold out, dawg.
Text: Charles Schulz, November 26 1922 - February 12, 2000

The author writes:

I detest sentimentality, and the original strip overflowed with it. So, let's try and see what the exact opposite of sentimentality looks like.
