A scandle so outragious it had Lyndon make national headlines?<br><br><br>This post and at-least the start of this topic is dedicated to storylien begining witht he falowing strip: <a href='http://www.ozyandmillie.org/2001/om20011226.html' target='_blank'>http://www.ozyandmillie.org/2001/om2001 ... ><br><br>I think this is a flash foward to maybe their sixth grade year. Teh entire stip has them startign to grow up itno adults. The very begiing of that hournay but never the less. Maybe when they're 12 or 13 too? Both are a bit mroe mature, but still ahve that hint of imaturity. Also this may be when Ozy starts wearign pants. As fig. 1 shows that when ozy is in high school he's wearign pants. So there's nto only the change in maturity there may be a perminat change in atire as well.<br><br>It's prety interestign to think of this as a flash foward. We've talekda botu ti befroe and I don;t think it was Mr. Simpsons intent but it certantly makes a lot of sense. Ozy and Milie as a pair, also Llewellyn and Ms. Mudd are such solid characters. It's a shame that we can't get to know every facit of their lives and personalities through their natual lives (well less so for Llewellyn but still...). There are personalities that I think a lot of peopel ahve inside themselvs. I knwo it's true for me. I see aspects of all four inside myself and I knwo other poeple who falow the strip have certian aspects of them.<br><br>Readign Ozy and Millie is like looking into myself. IT takes several parts of myself and displayes them as just the parts rather then the whole. I certantly have mroe inside of me then these four characters but none the less it si an exploration of myself. Maybe this is also true for Mr. Simpson. Maybe it is ture that writing Ozy and Millie is an exersize in self exploration of himself. I can definatly see it there at times. It's also quite awe isnprieing to get such an intamite look at ones mind if this is the case.<br><br>Ozy and Millie for thse reasons transeds the excelent drawlign and writing ocupoed in it. It is this extra meaning that is shown by it that makes it so endearing to som poele. IT;s jsut not another excelently drawn and writen comic strip but a widnow into the soul. That's something special.<br><br><br><img src='http://www.ozyandmillie.org/art/teenom.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image' /><br><br>figure one

That was an excellent arc.
I wonder if it'll finally get it's own forum too. I've always wanted a place online where I can talk about O&M.

I don't think it's a flash forward. Their legs are drawn shorter than they are now. Besides, that level of maturity isn't out of character for these guys.

Boy, Millie looks a lot different in her teenage pic compared to her younger self, but Ozy isn't too much different...<br><br>Boy, I'm totally off topic by being on-topic...
I'm here, you just can't see me!

Triggerpoint is my not so new webcomic, and currently under heavy work before it resurfaces.

Not different in clothing or hair or any of that. She just looks more mature. She also looks like she spotted something shocking or weird but thats normal.

You reckon DCS will let them grow up like in Doonsbury, or keep them perpetually young like The Simpsons?
