    Well, we’re not there yet, but
    let the sun shine in anyway

    This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius
    ….
    Harmony and understanding
    Sympathy and trust abounding
    No more falsehoods or derisions
    Golden living dreams of visions
    Mystic crystal revelation
    And the mind’s true liberation
    ….

    Let’s hope we get a taste of this.

    An excellent piece Justin.

    Brave Helios, wake up your steeds

    Well, what can I say to this except…

    Little darling, it’s been a long cold lonely winter
    Little darling, it feels like years since it’s been here
    Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
    And I say, it’s all right

    Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
    Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been here
    Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
    And I say, it’s all right

    Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…
    Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…
    Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…
    Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…
    Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…

    Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
    Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been clear
    Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
    And I say, it’s all right
    It’s all right…

    Written by George Harrison
    Recorded and performed by the Beatles

    Very nice tribute. I’ve seen a number of them today, but this is by far the most beautifully drawn. Both subtle and dramatic at the same time. Well done Justin.

    I want a poster of this. It expresses how I feel better than anything else I’ve seen.

    This is superlative. A new dawn breaks and the Obama symbol appears.

    Thank you, Justin.

    That one’s a keeper. Beautiful and powerful.

    I especially like panel #3. We’ve all been waiting, a long, long, lonely winter.

    Maybe I’ve missed something, but in everything I’ve heard about all the change that’s coming, I still haven’t figured out exactly what that change is. Can anyone explain specifically what differences you expect to see in what all the politicians actually do? (I stopped listening to what they say some time ago.)

    Obama’s New Age is a myth that does not tickle me.

    Thank you very much for the nice comments, those of you who did. That’s what keeps me going, I swear.

    Please feel free to send MythTickle to people you know, I’m trying to get noticed.
    Thanks again.

    Morning has broken, like the first morning,
    Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
    Praise for the singing, praise for the morning,
    Praise for the springing fresh from the word. Eleanor Farjeon as sung by

    Well done. The image evokes so many feelings and emotions. It’s hard to explain, I look at it and can almost hear music. It’s mystical, no pun intended.

    I’m a school teacher, in a small rural town. Many of my students rarely see a newspaper, much less get a chance to read the comics. I often print them from goComics for them to read. This is one I will definately share with them. Thanks Justin.

    Whether you agree with the sentiment or not, it is masterfully done. Brought a deep chuckle to this old bear.

    Justin –

    To let you know, I sent a copy of this one to a little political website called Bartcop, who assures his readers that he gets dozens of visits daily.
       
    He published it in today’s, so I hope that will help get some more word out on you:

    It looks beautiful on his page.

    Exceptional use of the copy/paste command. Well done. Otherwise it is agonizingly stupid. Penguins post, not the comic. The comic is superb.

    I printed this one for my classroom at school as part of a lesson on editorial comics. The students were mightily impressed, even the McCain supporters.
