The title panel. I dislike it. Ozy looks like he's eating that flower.

He is eating the flower.
The title at left is a takeoff on a famous photo of John Lennon, from one of his "bed-ins" for peace.
Ozy is uncharacteristically aggressive about his pacifism, in this strip; usually it's more Millie's style to be loud about what she thinks until someone socks her with a snowball. On the other hand, Ozy would never have lobbed the snowball at her, and I guess I had to give the song to somebody.
Incidentally, this strip marked my return to using actual brushes, for inking (I'd gone through a phase of using Japanese brush-pens.

I'm 90% sure that those first two lines he sings aren't even in the song. I dig the title panel.

I just noticed that Ozy totally stole Earnest. No wonder Millie is aggrieved.

The first two lines are from the Dylan song Blowin' in the Wind.I'm 90% sure that those first two lines he sings aren't even in the song. I dig the title panel.

Ozy's doing a peace song medley here, which I can only imagine sounds terrible.

Its because the non "Give Peace a Chance" sections of Give Peace a Chance are nonsense.
He should have sang One Tin Soldier. Now there is a peace song.

That's right. The mountain people got slaughtered because they failed to tell the valley folk that there was no buried cache of tons of gold.He should have sang One Tin Soldier. Now there is a peace song.

On the whole, Give Peace a Chance was not a very good song.

But it had the word masturbation in it. So it's good.
