HAHAHAHAA omg that is so so good
Not counting that one though, I feel New Nancy has just fallen into a pattern of winky 4th-wall-breaking meta-commentary which is really cute SOMETIMES but I wish there was a little more there

the way I judge newspaper comics is if there's one good one in a week then that's a pretty good week

I like it! When it’s not being meta or channelling Bushmiller, I get a strong Peanuts vibe. It’s like Peanuts with Lucy as the hero instead of CB.

That popularity is fueling other “Nancy” projects. Two books are due out in the fall, a board game is in the works, and the syndicate says it is finalizing a deal with a major streaming service for animated entertainment.

Seems like overkill, but I'm curious to see where it leads.
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Wednesday, 10 April 2019 03:19 (seven years ago)
what's fueling other projects is the fact that United Features owns the IP and is going to wring every penny out of it they can.

Sorry but it's impossible to get angry over _NANCY_ getting an all out multi-platform brand expansion. That's just deliciously funny.

Good for OJ, though
― Chuck_Tatum, Wednesday, 10 April 2019 10:01 (seven years ago)
last week's strips were all pretty damn funny
i get where the schulz comparisons are coming from, a lot of the non-meta nancy is dealing with the ridiculous things we do, and it's expressed through children on top of that
like schulz nancy's behavior is genuinely childlike most of the time, but her selfishness, laziness, and petty narcissism is something that's easy to relate to as an adult
it's actually kind of interesting how relatable a character nancy is for being a narcissist

There's some codgers commenting on this one about OJ making up the word "up-voted".

First collection of the Jaimes strip and a board book for the kids (entitled Nancy's Genius Plan, also by Jaimes) coming Oct. 1.

(in this scenario, Gilchrist would be jailed [& his former assistant would have a gig ghosting for a syndicate, just not on Nancy])
