I nabbed it from Tom Hart on twitter and didn't even look for attributions.

Well done regardless.

I wanted it to be true just a little too much.

me too. Would have been a nice companion to the Beckett drives Andre the Giant to school story.

nancy weirded me out when i was a kid because everyone still looked like they were from the 40s but the strips were about modern things like using fax machines and microwaves.

Then you realized they were just the concert coordinators for local rockabilly festivals and everything made sense.

haha nice.

Nancy weirded me out when I was a kid because it was drawn by a creepy Charlie Daniels fan

Man, Nancy is so consistently bizarre and weird and funny; I am surprised how low-brow and stupid it was considered in its time!!

gybe horses (Stevie D(eux)), Saturday, 4 April 2015 21:46 (eleven years ago)

I got that first year Fanta reprint of the complete Nancy & there is defs some filler,
just doing it so many decades there are a lot of standout ones, too.
It does make me look at the comics page differently. Marmaduke is dumb as fuck for example but sometimes it will have composition, or a premise, that would seem avant garde out of context.

The pseudonymous new artist who started last week is pretty great already:

love the commenters saying "this isn't going to hold up over time!!"...fine, you can go read the other 70,000,000 Nancy strips then

frogbs, Thursday, 19 April 2018 15:32 (eight years ago)

A+++

Acid Hose (Capitaine Jay Vee), Thursday, 19 April 2018 16:04 (eight years ago)

some of these new strips are like, peak-Peanuts good

Evan R, Thursday, 19 April 2018 16:07 (eight years ago)

As someone who suffered through the Jerry Scott era (and never read any of the Gilchrist stuff), this is kind of amazing.

Even if I hadn't suffered through the Jerry Scott era, it'd still be amazing.

Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Thursday, 19 April 2018 16:16 (eight years ago)

These new strips are pretty good! I like all the modern tech gags. They do a good job of keeping the Bushmiller sensibility and style, but also feel fresh. My only gripe is that some of the adults look off-brand.

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Thursday, 19 April 2018 16:17 (eight years ago)

speaking of, when did Heathcliff get so weird and postmodern?

frogbs, Thursday, 19 April 2018 16:30 (eight years ago)

I mentioned it on the other thread, but: Olivia Jaimes's new Nancy strips are great!

mh, Thursday, 19 April 2018 16:37 (eight years ago)

I'm dying at this one: http://www.gocomics.com/nancy/2018/04/12

mh, Thursday, 19 April 2018 16:39 (eight years ago)

But Gilchrist is apparently still doing Sundays? Because now I'm really curious to see what Jaimes does with Sunday space.

Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Thursday, 19 April 2018 16:43 (eight years ago)

Nancy otm, Sluggo needs to up his YouTube views.

Sunday strips have a longer lead time, I assume there's a backlog still

valorous wokelord (silby), Thursday, 19 April 2018 16:45 (eight years ago)

Thread revive and no mention of Mark Newgarden's awesome "How to Read Nancy" from last year? Rectified.

mick signals, Thursday, 19 April 2018 22:55 (eight years ago)

yay these are really funny

map, Thursday, 19 April 2018 23:38 (eight years ago)

the before is... well, yeah

Everyone is posting about the new Nancy writer. To help you make your own comparison, here is an entire Nancy strip from a few weeks ago by the old (and I do mean old) writer, followed by a strip from the new one. pic.twitter.com/efOeUJWm8t

So it had basically turned into Pluggers?

Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Friday, 20 April 2018 02:23 (eight years ago)

I don’t think pluggers is that sentimental about thirty years ago. that’s some weird specific fixation

do you think a slightly-younger cartoonist would say “we had that 70s show and seinfeld” because... uh, damn
