    Garfield's weird feet were the result of a design change that was needed for the animated show Garfield and Friends. Legend has it that it was Charles Shultz the creator of Peanuts who gave them the design of those wild feet in a meeting one day.

    Knowing gardfield is drawn the way he is for simplicity sake (easier to repeat for various artists to redraw) seeing his design evolve was hilarious to me. I kept thinking “man those story board artists would hate you 😂”
    This was a lot of fun, I would love to see more like this. Especially a take where to use a very “good” character (or evil for reverse) all the way to a “bad” character.
