I worked many years on the graveyard shift..2AM-10AM. Getting up in the middle of the night was tough. The best, most efficient alarm for getting me up out of my warm comfy bed was a flashing light alarm. The very first time it went off, I dreamed it was a nuclear attack. After that, I was up and at’m on the first click before the light started flashing. That was one very effective alarm clock…LOL…
Boy that is a really unusual speech/thought balloon right there. It’s fluffy like a thought bubble, but it’s obviously representing real sound, with added emphasis on loudness by the extra radiating lines in the tail. And it has an image of the snorer. I’ve seen thought bubbles with images representing the reaction of the thinker, but I can’t recall a speech balloon with an image of the originating speaker (or snorer). The panel needs to convery the source of the snoring, and that it’s bothering Nancy, but trying to depict two bedrooms in two houses with sound originating in one room but audible in the other, with one image, was probably impossible, hence the elaborate baloon workaround.
I’d also like to comment that I don’t think Nancy would have much success writing on a glass flashlight lens with a nib ink pen.
I’ve probably read “How to Read Nancy” a few too many times.

Not exactly the Bat-Signal, but a signal more or less!

Nancy is even more menacing than Dennis.

That woke him up?

Pretty clever, but how did that wake him so he could see it?
