After 11 months of daily posting to comics@lemmy.ml I have been banned so they are now fully without Heathcliff.
I’m not bitter about it. The mods in each group are free to decide what is in their community.
If you aren’t familiar with this project here are the basics:
I remove Heathcliff from each day’s Heathcliff comic. In most cases this preserves their absurdist, dada, anti-joke vibe because his presence is frequently irrelevant to the joke even though he is the titular character.
Every day except Sunday. On those days I add him to something he wasn’t in.
I will post the original in the comments each day so you have a comparison available.
This isn’t Garfield Minus Garfield. Those edits become introspective instead of more or the same level of surreal. Those where done selectively versus this project being daily.
Just wanted to say that I enjoy your edits. I had never seen the comic before but predicting how Heathcliff fits into it is a fun game, before I look at the original. Do you have them collected somewhere? The old posts aren’t accessible anymore I guess
They removed all my posts.
Previous posts are available on both Bluesky and Twitter at HeathcliffNull. Twitter goes back slightly further. Edits are also available on Facebook at NightTime Garbage Ape Ft. Heathcliff And The Catillac Cats Corner is Lit and I just recently started making them public on my own Facebook profile at Piller Gregerson.
