I didn't notice this in the last strip, but Llewellyn's cheek-fins are lookin' pretty weird here.

Holy Ra, how did I never notice that?

Usually I skip whatever Llewellyn says because his font is sort of hard to read and he isn't funny, but I actually like what he says in this one. Bravo.

That must make it hard to appreciate many comics in Ozy and Millie. Llewellyn talks quite a bit.
This is the first time Millie and Llewellyn have really interacted one on one, since their first meeting.
In which Millie racially profiled Llewellyn and then assaulted him.

The thing with alot of Ozy and Millie comics is that the punchline is set up in the first panel, the joke is in the final panel, and the middle panels only serve to delay the joke and can be ignored. So even if Llewellyn is around being dull I'm not missing a whole lot.

That's a horrible way to read comics. I mean, it's excuseable if it's Doonesbury (especially in the 70's) but that's a bad way to view comics I think.
