A) obviously parody, and thus "fair use" unless you get very lucky on your judge-and-jury selection
B) the only thing making Garfield even remotely palatable to a new audience - but it's a WHOLE NEW AUDIENCE who are now reading Garfield looking for remix options. Which is to say, a net positive for Jim Davis And Studio.
C) either not making money, or paying licensing fees. And Jim Davis And Studio are *not at all shy* about taking money for Garfield from anyone.
