Wednesday, April 29, 1998 - Nothing rhymes with "Ozymandias"

[Quexinos]

Aww it's cute It sucks being the new kid in school so I can really related here.

Well I hope Ozy will at least make one new friend, I have a feeling he will.

[Maggot Brain]

I actually really like this one so far. Ol' Ozy has some sexy ears.

What is this? A challenger to my top hat supremacy?

Never.

[IceDragon]

Wait, where are his PANTS?!

The walking pose in first panel is a bit odd but in general the strip is cute and fuzzy and theres a lot going on. Plus you can instantly relate to Ozy's first day fears

Looking forward to the next strip!

I like how the strip gives off a vibe of being alone in a playground crowded with other kids.

I sort of remember when I discovered the comic this wasn't the first strip in the archives, but came after a few Sunday style large strips that weren't part of this story. Millie and Avery, or a raccoon that looked liked him, were already friends with Ozy.

[Cactus Jack]

Good first strip. Introduces Ozy well, especially letting you know his name without him just straight up saying his name. The only part I don't like is the girl trying to mock him with ryme. In my experience children are never that clever and usually meaner.

and she couldn't even come up with something like "lumpy mass", how unrealistic.
