NO! I don't want to live in a world without Ozy and millie!Sorry about that, this has got me really down, I'm calm... This is unbelievable, one of my favorite things in the world is ending. If I where an emotional person, this would make me cry. I hope I can be as calm about it as you guys in time. I love this strip but if DCS can't do it anymore I guess this is inevitable. Ozy and Millie is an irreplaceable comic. At least their may still be some new updates.
Thank you very much DCS.
X2!!!

hmmm...
To be more exact, the decline in quality, in particular that of the storyline, began declining around the time 'I Drew This' started.
I think that what made Ozy and Millie interesting for me was the use of political humour in a comic which is otherwise character driven. This is something which I still find to be unique. Never in my voyages through the interwebs have I come across another webcomic which does the same thing. When 'I Drew This' was created, many of the political overtones in Ozy and Millie disappeared, leaving an ordinary character driven comic. That would be fine normally but character driven humour does tend to get old very quickly unless there is significant character development within the comic. This is opposed to political humour which, thanks to the ever changing nature of politics, remains fresher. Ozy and Millie was already many years old when this change occured, the characters were already familiar and thus, it became predictable very quickly.
This being my opinion, one may wonder why I didn't start following 'I Drew This' when it came out. While it is true that the humour of it is fresher, it is also essencially the same has the myriad of other political comics out there.
What made Ozy and Millie special was the combination of average political/social humour mixed with average character driven humour.
In my opinion at least.
