Nancy by Olivia Jaimes for June 30, 2018

Go first.

And here we learn the difference between critical and lateral thinking.

Also, I’m liking Teach dressing from the summer collection.

What Nancy doesn’t know is that Pee Wee has been practicing and is now unbeatable.

On a whim I went to the “beginning” (the earliest Gocomics posting) You may have to do some jockeying around to get there depending on your device, or click the << double arrows and step forward. Aunt Fritzi was much sweeter then, not the DC superhero as she evolved to be on January 1, 1997. Nancy goes from bland to cute as time goes on. It’s interesting how the artists’ styles evolve.

I believe that this is OJ’s first strip with Pee Wee.

“Summer robotics club” is a euphemism for summer school. Poor kids. I’m not a theologian, but I know if there is a hell, it has summer school.

Wow peewee. Nancy put in a nice word for you.

I have had Nancy read to me or I’ve been reading Nancy since I was barely big enough to sit up. I do not like this change. Go ahead, call me old-fashioned or whatever . . . some things don’t need a drastic renovation.

When I was a kid, I lost a game of tic-tac-toe to a chicken!

I saw an article about a machine to play tic-tac-toe. The machine was made of tinker-toys.

In a 3^n game, where n is an integer >=3 (the number of dimensions), the first player can always win in 4 moves.

@ 30% Bushmiller-esque today, Which is an improvement. “Snapper” panel just about right-on (if you forget the table is not in proper perspective).

Olivia, unfortunately, doesn’t use cinema tricks like POV shots enough, which would help. For example, our eye behind the backs of Nancy’s and Pee Wee’s heads to the board in panel 1.

This teacher is way too deadpan – – a little expression like surprise would be appropriate. And she’s always, nyahh, a bit verbose.

The inclusion (and 1st app) of Pee Wee, perfect.

This is my first introduction to PeeWee, He’s very small and somewhat cute. I look forward to learning more about him.
