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

I clicked through on one of the codgers' accounts and he is following hundreds of strips and cartoonists, so: respect

What the heck?! JUSTICE FOR GUY GILCHRIST

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

After early enjoyment I'm kind of hating the more obnoxious personality Jaimes has given Nancy, so today was a welcome lol.

Another rip-off of one of Alan Moore’s formally audacious, intricately-illustrated reinterpretations of material from the 1960s.

not a Moebius strip, an tape-the-ends-together infinite loop, like Moore's I Can Hear The Grass Grow, from 1988

CALLING IT: Sic is Olivia Jaimes (and Quentin Tarentino)

Hey sic, tell your Fanta contacts to get their heads in the game, I was finally gonna pull the trigger on the Bushmiller collections only to find that they're mostly hopelessly out of print after only a couple of years. Tell them I bought the Peanuts box sets right up to the bitter end if that helps. Thx, lylas

nhex's take is my take on her whole take on nancy period. i'm not mad at it tho, beats the hell outta gilchrist.

I took a look at the first Jaimes strip collection at the bookstore and was disappointed that 1) it’s in color 2) it looks like it has JPEG artifacts or some such poor reproduction. No sale.

silby, Sunday, 3 May 2020 20:00 (three years ago) link

is it running in B&W anywhere at all? she seems to be drawing it in/for colour, would assume a B&W book would require someone spotting every single strip

Elon's musk (sic), Sunday, 3 May 2020 22:30 (three years ago) link

Iirc, Jaimes draws and colors the strips on an iPad. It also seems like any papers still running daily strips run them in color (the last time I looked at the Houston paper--admittedly awhile ago--they were cut down from two b&w pages to the color back page of the culture/style section).

"...And the Gods Socially Distanced" (C. Grisso/McCain), Sunday, 3 May 2020 22:58 (three years ago) link

I haven’t clapped eyes on a daily comics page in aeons but I assumed they were still black and white

silby, Monday, 4 May 2020 00:06 (three years ago) link

Guess I also assumed that the color strips were produced in the traditional way where the artist hands in a black and white version and some hack at the syndicate does colors.
