Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Even Jim Davis, the creator of Garfield, approves of the spinoff phenomenon that is Garfield Minus Garfield. A webcomic created by Dan Walsh, Garfield Minus Garfield has managed to entertain the internet by adding a twist that manages to somehow make Garfield even darker than Jim Davis intended it to be. However, as it literally erases Davis' existing work, he technically has every right to sue.
Jim Davis Loves Garfield Minus Garfield He Has No Plans of Suing Close When asked if there has been any satirized version of Garfield that has surprised or even startled him over the years, Jim Davis is quick to name-drop Garfield Minus Garfield as the most "gratifying" use of satire to come out of the Garfield name.
The concept of Garfield Minus Garfield is as self-explanatory as it gets. Debuting online in 2008 and running all the way until 2020, creator Dan Walsh took classic, pre-existing panels from Jim Davis' Garfield series, and digitally removed the title character from each strip's panel. The result, depending on perspective, is either an incredibly haunting portrait of a man in the middle of melancholic despair, or something just plain funny.
Jim Davis deciding not to sue Dan Walsh over Garfield Minus Garfield is not a fact that should be overlooked, especially considering his reasoning. So many other creators and companies would have gone the other route, but not Davis. It goes beyond Garfield Minus Garfield just being funny, and more in how he distinguishes between what is loving parody and what is the theft of content. The key word that Davis uses for Walsh is fan. "It's a fan," he says.
