Lynn's Comments: Changing a character’s hair was always a big deal. I figured it wouldn’t make sense for teenagers to not go through some experimentation, so both Elizabeth and Michael had some different “looks” throughout the latter part of the strip. Elly and John, however, stayed pretty much the same.

Lynn's Comments: I think this is the first time “Ned” appeared in the strip. It was against the rules to show a naked backside in the “funny papers,” so, naturally, I wanted to test the waters. Stuck to the window of Mike and Weed’s apartment was a tiny, naked plastic man. Ned appeared regularly and was never “caught” by an editor.
