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

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

A+++

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

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.

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

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

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

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

Nancy otm, Sluggo needs to up his YouTube views.

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

these Jaimes strips are great, tyvm everyone

ugh jerry scott era nancy is one of the worst strips ever

this is so great

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

yay these are really funny

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?

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

Hooo boy

????

the moody blues one has been ref’d a lot but I was afraid to track it down, thanks crut

feel like silby has never experienced a tuuuuuuesday afterrrrrrnooon

That just makes me feel bad for Ernie Bushmiller

Would have much preferred Nancy going to see ELO.

Thankfully that comic seems to have been published long after his death

Supposedly from 1998? That has to be a miscitation, right? Or the Gilchrists were showing the world that rock acts could have orchestras when... god, I can’t unravel how dumb and backward this is

Holy crap, I didn't realize they started in 1995. I assumed that strip was from the 60s or 70s.

tbf pbs stations even now show stuff like a special evening with the moody blues

That's because they buy programming from national PBS and stuff like Moody Blues concerts were paid for a long long time ago.

yeah but the rights to air them don't actually last that long
