comic strip

And Ozy's dad is finally revealed, disrupting Millie's little Noir scene...
Originally published 30 September 1998

This was the first time we got a look at Llewellyn's face. The storyline that introduced him was also the first real sequential storyline of any length ever to appear in Ozy and Millie.

I still think I used color well, in this strip. But I'm not entirely sure what Ozy's remark is supposed to mean. Like a lot of the writing in O&M, it seems to make sense until you actually think about it.

The plot of this storyline revolved around Millie's fear of dragons turning out to be unjustified. Llewellyn was revealed as a sweet, gentle person. That his elevator may not go all the way to the top floor would only later really become apparent. (Alternately, some would say his elevator goes higher than most of us ever care to go.)
