==''Odd Bodkins''==
''Odd Bodkins'' began its run in 1964 in the ''San Francisco Chronicle'' when O'Neill was 21 years old. The strip consisted of the adventures of Hugh and Fred Bird. During the course of the strip's run, it increasingly reflected O'Neill's life in and his critique of 1960s counterculture. Though he considered himself a strong writer, O'Neill said of his artwork, "I had a very weak line. Either that or palsy."
As ''Odd Bodkins'' became increasingly political, O'Neill feared that the ''Chronicle'', which held the strip's copyright, would fire him and hire another artist. The ''Chronicle'' had axed ''Odd Bodkins'' a few times already, but it had been reinstated following reader protests. O'Neill decided on an odd tactic to regain control of his strip: he would engage in copyright infringement, which he reasoned would force the paper to surrender the strip's copyright back to him for fear of being sued. O'Neill worked 28 Walt Disney characters, including Mickey Mouse and Pluto, into the strip. In late November 1970, the ''Chronicle'' fired O'Neill for the final time but did not continue to run the strip.
In 1972, during O'Neill's legal battles with Disney over ''Air Pirates Funnies'', the ''Chronicle'' finally transferred the copyright of ''Odd Bodkins'' back to O'Neill.
