I have never really read or looked at Nancy before this morning; I am really into this.

Have thought for years about making a Five Card Nancy deck.

I really, really want to see the whole strip the floating "NO" panel is from; does anyone have this?

Would you consider a strip featuring Fritzi only, and only her mouth visible? Difficult, but could work. Shall consider it more.

doh! I didn't catch that.

EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 18 June 2013 01:44 (ten years ago) link

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

Well done regardless.

EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 18 June 2013 01:45 (ten years ago) link

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

Home Despot (WilliamC), Tuesday, 18 June 2013 01:50 (ten years ago) link

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

d'oh sorry

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.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 18 June 2013 18:36 (ten years ago) link

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 (nine years ago) link

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:
