Further required listening! But not the Garfield bit.

Don't worry, Garfield doesn't actually burn Jon alive. This time.

Panel 1. Jon Arbuckle, the monster, sits at a table and says "The claws must go"

Garfield, incredibly badly drawn even by my own horrifying standards, pulls a hideous grimace. His eyes are much too far apart. He thinks "The hell they do"

Panel 2. Jon Arbuckle, the monster, stares at the camera, looking concerned. Reflection lines at the edge of the panel indicate that he is behind glass.

Panel 3. The viewpoint pulls back to reveal that Jon Arbuckle, the monster, is trapped inside an oven. His mouth is open in a rectangular howl which we cannot hear. An orange paw reaches towards the oven igniter.

Blink

Panel 1. Jon and Garfield at a table begin to stare at each other.

Panels 2-4, they continue to stare, pupils enlarging

Panel 5, zoomed out. I accidentally drew Jon's pupils wrong, but liked the effect so a kept it and added it to Garfield. Reality is beginning to unravel

Panel 6. Further staring

Panel 7. Snap! Jon's eyes are massively bloodshot, his pupils tiny

Panel 8. Jon lies head on table, smoke rising from his fried brain. Garfield stares straight at the reader, eyes empty black pools.

Stare at his eyes. Keep staring. And on and on....

I think this might be the best drawing I've ever done of Jon's face.

The only way to make sense of this image is to listen to our podcast. If you have seen the below, and find yourself beguiled by the notion of an anti-diarrhoea medicine for draculas, then you're going to have to search "I Don't Like Mondays" in your podcast apps. Don't start with ep1 though. God no.

If you're interested in Orks but not necessarily the rules of 40k, Space Gits by @planetsmashergames.bsky.social might be worth a look

Panel 1, Jon the Ork enters, carrying a bag of groceries. "Oi! I'm back!"

Panel 2 Jon suggests something to barbecue. "Steak and Khorne"

This is a pun based on the ear of corn in his groceries, which sounds like Khorne, the chaos god of war.

Panel 3. A cat tail is sticking up from the bag. The Ork is dismayed as the cat "just ate the burnin' stuff
