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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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— Cybernetically Enhanced Abby Denton (@mizabitha) April 18, 2018

I don’t think pluggers is that sentimental about thirty years ago. that’s some weird specific fixationdo you think a slightly-younger cartoonist would say “we had that 70s show and seinfeld” because... uh, damn
