While I was making Arbuckle, I discovered a series of Garfield comics which had been lost for 40 years. Today on Quinton Reviews, we discuss Jim Davis’ unseen work. From Gnorm Gnat... To Jon.

Garfton.
this video is great and so interesting 💗
your name deservis to be put in the history books for this
I thought I saw you in a Wendy's yesterday but I looked again and it was some homeless guy who wasn't nearly as well kept as you are
I think you should mention the historian that helped you like in thank you in some way. If you haven't already.
Fun fact: Jim once wrote that Garfield was born in an Italian restaurant, with "snow falling like parmesan cheese" outside the window-despite the fact that Garfield was born in June.
I think this is him subtly referencing Garfield's true January birthday.
He's like Jesus, nobody knows his true birthday.
@@leiram8833
Quinton already made that joke.
Maybe he was born in Argentina, where it snows in June.
@@ob2kenobi388 Funny enough, the Garfield Origin was brought to life through "Garfield: His 9 Lives" as the first half of "Live No. 8". Even then, the second TV Special for Garfield was our first hint on the full origin.
“Bury me in cheese!”
Oh my god, you have to send that library historian a cake or something. The fact that they went digging up the Jon strips on their own when nobody even knew they existed is pretty amazing.
Local historians are super cool people
Crowdfunder for the Library
Yeah! I'm surprised they weren't credited or thanked at the end of the video. It sounds like their above-and-beyond effort is what made this whole thing happen. Super detective/genius library historian!
They probably didn’t want to be named or get attention drawn to themselves or the library (since Garfield fans would probably keep emailing and calling the place), but I’m sure Quinton is doing everything to thank them.
@@toetotipthatsabart5048 yeah, my thinking is given the historian a woman Quinton may have thought it better not to advertise her name and job on the Internet
Quick aside: librarians are badass and they will absolutely help you find whatever you're looking for. They're college educated professionals in the interdisciplinary study of Library Science, specializing in the Categorization, discovery, curation, archival, and research of media.
If you EVER need help finding something, look for a librarian.
They definitely need more respect
Can they help me find my self esteem?
Well, the librarians at Komaki city library won't give us super Mario's traffic safety because "it's too old".

Welcome to archivism.
The most obscure little efforts can have incalculable meaning one day.
Someone, somewhere, argued for the storage space for those old newspapers.
An ancient Greek read a comment in the margin of a book (shadow in a well) and was inspired toward a method of confirming that the world was round.
It’s likely on a reel
As an archivist, thank you! My guess is it's probably on a microfilm reel. That's how we keep our old local newspapers.
Can confirm as someone's who's worked in the field before.

You mean today
He means 4 days ago when the short film was released.
No.
Quinton is old now.
@@TomboTime You're not old til your 50 at least
Are 50-year-olds really that old though?? I don't think you can get senior citizen benefits at that age, or at least not ones I'm familiar with
Quinton is quickly becoming the Jesus of the Garfield religion
He is the second coming of Jim Davis. (Just ignore the fact the original is still alive)
Yeah he is the jesus of the Garfield fandom as in I'mma put him on the stake
He's closer to the Martin Luther of the Garfield religion.
What about Lasagna Cat?
@@leiram8833 the old testament
Gnorm Gnat feels like something made up for a creepypasta. The fact that it's lost media, the strange character design, the darker jokes including suicide, the infamous urban legend ending...
That's.....actually really cool. Like, all joking aside that's honestly really cool, especially if you're into lost media/comic history.
I mean fuck, dude. Nice going.

"Garfield's birthday is like Jesus's birthday "
-Quinton
“That’s like making a list of characters who are popular in America... And putting Jesus next to Garfield.” -bdg, polygon
i cant believe its real
@@byssted The prophecy!!!
Honestly, I don't think January 8th should be Garfield's birthday. I think it should be Jon's!
Nathaniel Foga Technically true
He isnt wrong tho,
Never underestimate the power of the public library system!
Fund the goddamn libraries
The PENDLETON library. It’s a clusterfuck and I’m surprised it could keep those records.
Having fun isn't hard, when you've got a library card!
T R O O F
I've heard that, if something where to be published in Sweden, at least back in the day. One copy had to be sent to the Stockholm library. - I wonder how many gems is hiding in there with publications that people have forgotten about. Both Swedish and international content that was published in Sweden.
yo the wikipedia article about garfield actually cites this video
good job quinton
This is one of the wildest videos I’ve ever seen.
The reveal is nuts.
I didn't think Garfield could've look any weirder until I saw Beta Garfield.
Pre-alpha Garfield
Same here tbh
Nathaniel Foga I like that Garfield
His cheeks look like ballsacks. Jim why
Garfield was always alpha. :)
I'm surprised that Gnorm's girlfriend doesn't have her name spelled 'Gnatasha'. Missed opportunity.
I know, it was such an obvious pun that no one would've been mad at how bad it was!
That's why it failed
No wonder it bombed.
Of Katyusha
As a long-time Garfield fan, this is GAME-CHANGING. Thank you for your amazing detective work on both Gnorm and Jon.
i can't wait for Quinton and Fredrik's new deep-lore Garfield series, "Down The Lasagna Hole"
This is premium Garf content. Delicious. Tantalizing.
Some of these lost Garfield comics deserve some fanart...
Oh,,,, oh dear. Can’t wait to see what u do !!
Oh no
Hey Lumpy.
When lumpy touch says you make good Garfield content, it means your goo... *OH NO*

I'm not in the Garfield fandom, but this brought me nothing but pure joy, and I'm happy for you that you got to have this experience, and it's not like I really have the social position to be able to say this, but I'm really proud of you.
When will Quinton finally acknowledge the existence r/imsorryjohn?

I absolutely love how you go in passionate infodumps about stuff you find interesting. I find myself learning about stuff I personally don't feel super strongly about just because the way you talk about them is so engaging.
for a moment I feared this videos was sponsored by "Garfield eats"

This whole video has an aura of "crackhead rambling about strange and specific topic" and I don't know why it has that aura but I love it
I’m actually from Pendleton originally and Garfield and Gnorm Gnat are a huge, HUGE deal.
You should write and direct the next movie for Garfield. You live and breath Garfield.
It would be the first Garfield movie to get above a 5/10 on IMDb
yes, he must
Breath of the Garfield
So from what I see , Norm was basically the Oswalt the Lucky Rabbit of the Jim Davis universe.
Oswalt was successful tho. At least enough for the Disneys to live off. It wasn't until hmWalt Disney's cartoonists walked off, taking the Oswalt copyright with them, that Walt and his remaining Cartoonists had to come up with Mickey Mouse
Wasnt Oswalt the work of a rival animation studio
@@qorso no, it was Walt's first big character, but the copyright was taken, so he made Mickey.
@@RadFoxgirl And Oswald returns to Disney universe. We need more about him.
I now want an Epic Garfield video game.
Paws inc sent in their assassins to take out Quinton for his forbidden knowledge.
This is some entertaining stuff. I knew a little about Gnorm Gnat and the early days from a "Garfield 20th anniversary collection" book that I cherished as a kid and it's really cool to finally see a lot more.
Who was the historian who helped you find this stuff? Or did they request to remain anonymous?
my question exactly! This amazing discovery was clearly a joint venture.
He said it was Pendleton's town historian. He probably just found them online. Pendleton's website shows they have a Pendleton Historical Museum there.
She definitely deserves credit for rediscovering this.
Lasagna Cat has to make a come back for the Jon strips
They will... in another 7 years...
Those guys don't mind making fun of what has become a massive franchise for how dull the source material is. I don't know if they would do the same for what was at the time, a strip for a small newspaper that had little success.
I think they've spat enough venom at it by now. We know they hate Garfield and Jim Davis. What else is there to say?
@@TheTheninjagummybear It's not about what there is to say, but how many more insane ways they'll cook up to say it.
That said, I am more than happy with what we have now and the fact that they spent the better part of a decade just quietly brewing UA-cam channels and twitter accounts while sitting on the footage they were to unleash on everyone is just something that won't have nearly the same impact the second go-around.
This makes SexSurvey Results ending even more accurate. Jim Davis watched his creation surpass him in every way. Name included.
I sincerely hope that this video gains popularity. This is a huge discovery. It baffles me how the hell this knowledge went unknown for 40 years
I found something in the book "my laughable life with Garfield: the Jon Arbuckle chronicles". In the introduction, it mentions the "Jon" comic and shows early drawings of Jon, and surprisingly, a full comic strip from "Jon". I checked the date of the books original print and it was 2012. So "Jon" was released to the public at least once before this, but it was brief and I don't think anybody took notice. But your discovery was bigger because this book included only one strip, you found most of them! Good job and congratulations!
Forget Area 51. No discovery there will ever live up to this.
Miffed Akko Well true.
While ya'll storming Area 51, I will be storming Paws, Inc
New goal: Storm the pendleton library.
Frederik Knudsen? Big Joel? Sarah Z? Dude, you're making a ton of friends! And you're a Brooklyn 99 fan!
Don’t forget about Brendaniel! He did the voice of Garfield in this video
I irritates me that Sarah Z is still getting given the same clout as the rest of left tune when she's proven to have lied about and fucked over a minority creator for daring to criticise a TV show she like
99 like, nice
Can’t wait for your 1 hour analysis of the legendary Pipe Strip

Look at her Twitter, she says some fucked up garbage. The fact that she made one video doesn't change that.
@@LieseFury Show your proof of said garbage, then. I am all for a good discussion, but baseless claims followed by what amounts to 'do your research' won't change anyone's mind.

Whoever voiced Liz did a great job at making her sound like an actual veterinarian.
While the "Jon" version of the pipe strip is a little disappointing, you could see the kernel of madness that he'd eventually unleash unto the world. As if he had stumbled upon something unfamiliar and frightening, but didn't quite have the courage to put it to paper.
The fact that U.S Acres is the only Jim Davis comic to not include a character named Lyman shows why it should be forgotten
US 👏 ACRES 👏 WAS 👏 A 👏 MASTERPIECE 👏 AND 👏 YOU 👏 KNOW 👏 IT 👏
neros1234 Quit deluding yourself
@@fredpertrench2460 It was great actually. The animated show, the comic was just meh.
You need to watch some Garf Gab. You are looking at this through rose tinted glasses
@@fredpertrench2460 Excuse me, Garf Gab? It just looks like Garfield related shitposts of Garfield and friends. I'm not looking at rose tinted glasses, I liked Garfield and friends and The U.S. Acres comics and still do Like them. A side note Wade is the best comic character I've ever seen.
A... candy came? But what could this mean? As you know, a fandycane contains no nicotine, therefore is non- poisonous to cats. Yet it's amazing, isn't it, fascinating even, that originally, Garfield stole Jon's candy -- sugar, obesity, gluttony. Garfield was the fat greedy cat who fed off Jon the slim's sweets! Sweets, sweets, but of course -- the fat orange cat also saves Jon from its figurative poison. Garfield the cat had saved Jon once from figurative poison, and then, when the strip was remade, no, reborn, Garfield the cat saved John from literal poison! Why, I cried! I cried, cried, cried! When I came upon this revelation!
don't give your cat candy canes, bud
This is why libraries are important! Great find!
This brought my 13 year old self's spirit back to life and blew his mind.
Garfield has rejected his limited paper form and has now ascended to the digital realm.
Justin Y. Hello there
I'm sorry Jon
Justin, The world is going to end
do.. do you, like, not have a job or something?
please go back to the depths of hell from witch you came

Down the Garfield Hole
wow, "no jury in the world would've convicted me" was the first time I laughed at a garfield comic
I LOVE that the original "Jon" comic where garfield swipes the food includes a lasagna reference and Jim self consciously edited it into a steak. little did he know how big of a hit lasagna would be
We need to start a movement for Jim Davis to finally release these original Jon comics
This deserves to be #1 on trending
This is super cool!
Who's the amazing historian who did the legwork here? Like, they deserve some real public respect too, if they want it.
Dude, you’ve actually made an enormous breakthrough. This is incredible.
This is now a Garfield UA-cam channel
That's actually really cool. Good find on those 'Jon' comics, whoever your connection was. You might indeed be the luckiest Garfield fan alive, lol.
I knew someone that used to decorate their room in Garfield themed items. They had a Garfield clock, and phone, and calendar, ect. They put Garfield stickers on their car. You can have everything you own be Garfield branded...But you can't buy Jim Davis history, turns out. There is no moral in there, don't look for one. I was just remembering that one kid with the Garfield themed room.
I am sure somewhere there is a history book that has to be rewritten now
There is something strangely something hypnotic about how in focus the Star Wars rat bird is compared to Quintons face
Ladies and gentlemen, we've got a bruh moment of magnitude 10 on our hands.
Cool discovery! A little disappointed Gnorm didn’t end that way, just because I was curious what it would look like.
Noah Montgomery I argue that it may have ended that way. It might be a rejected strip that Davis saw as the ending and the paper wouldn’t print thus leading to have the half assed Merry Xmas strip.
Johnny Alias That’s possible.
Hey Quinton!
I live in Indiana, not very far from Pendleton. I drive through there multiple times a week while working. I’ve never been much of a Garfield fan, but I have actually heard of “Jon” before.
I work in the HVAC industry, and one day a couple years ago a customer whose house I was working at was talking to myself and a coworker about his collection of items in his man cave. My coworker asked about a Garfield sign he had, and he spun us the whole yarn about Jim Davis getting his start in Pendleton, then produced an old paper with a Jon comic in it. I had no idea that this wasn’t well known. Craziness.
I thought he ment the band Blondie at first and was really confused
Oh yes, this is gonna be a big one! Congrats on finding this amazing piece of history dude
"Blondie." I thought he meant the band...
6:51 if Jim Davis was such a genius, how did he miss the obvious opportunity to name Gnorms girlfriend “GNatasha”? I MEAN COME ON!
If a joke is obvious, why do it?
I checked out that Jon fan comic and it’s genuinely very wholesome and fun.
Our boy Quinton's got the Garfield madness, and I love it.
Is this the start of the Church of Lazy-Day Saints?
The Church of Earlier-Day Comics
Guys, I think Quinton finally managed to answer the eternal question of where Jon's pipe could be
Okay so he was doing the same jokes before he was syndicated what's the big d-
>the pipe was a candy cane THE PIPE WAS A CANDY CANE
GET JOHN BLYTH BARRYMORE ON THE PHONE
REV UP THOSE LONG TAKES BOYS
QUINTON LIES! I found the strip in the archive file, and it doesn't seem to be the same one as the pipe strip.
"It's called prototype." All story-based writers/artists go through a period where they are dormant hermits while building their little worlds. XD
You mentioned laiman or however you spell it from early Garfield and omfg I fucking almost cried because I miss him hes the best character
There's something so heartwarming about how much you love this strip, and the idea that something someone doodled years ago could one day mean so much to someone else
I like how that newspaper article used the phrasing "Garfield & Friends", since that became the title of the TV series.
Holy crap, I found somebody who was just as obsessed with Garfield as I was as a kid!! This also shows me how invaluable local libraries are
By the way, I have a book celebrating Garfield's 25th anniversary from 2003 called "In Dog Years I'd Be Dead: Garfield at 25". I just looked through it recently, and it features *some* early sketches of striple-less Garfield (like the one at 18:30). The book dates them to 1976, so everything checks out!
Hi Cary
battle for infinite lasanga
The most tragic lost Garfield item is John's pipe. Now where could it be?
I am unironically jealous of you Quinton. This is like discovering a long lost tomb and being the first to explore it.
What if the original Garfield and Spot died? Then Jon got another cat, also called him Garfield, and Lyman got another dog and named him Odie.
I think a thank you to the pentlton historian was missing at the end.
pre-garfield Jon looks like a meme
I like Jon's Garfield drawing SO MUCH MORE!
i think my favorite garfact is that in an old old computer flash game, you could find lymen chained up in the basement of the house, and when you come back to that screen the next time, he’s gone. it’s very odd
It’s always great to hear Fred Knudsen in anything. Seriously, this guy rivals Kevin Perjurer of Defunctland for the title of Most Smoothest Voice on all of UA-cam.
5:02 That Fredrik Knudsen feature! I see you Quinton
It kind of makes me sad to see Odie get beat on with the newspaper. Great video! What a crazy find, you and that historian should be proud!
One of your best videos to date. What a find and what a way to put it out there.
this is genuinely amazing. exhilirating, even.
“When I was young and obsessed with Garfield...”
now you are old and obsessed with Garfield
I've seen some of those old comics - not most, but some. I remember Spot and I recognize the old Garfield design. I have no idea where, but this was a burst of nostalgia
This is the most incredible piece of journalism I’ve seen in so long. This BLEW MY MIND
i kind of want to get a tattoo of the candy cane pipe pic.. garfield gave me a sense of nihilism as a kid and it just feels right
Keep up the great work Quinton. Always love your videos, especially Garfield related.
this video is SO awesome, i love this sorta thing so much & it's so exciting that you got 2 be such a big part of this!!! who knows when we would have seen these (if ever) w/o you!!! thanks quinton!
