Nancy by Olivia Jaimes for February 20, 2019

Siddhartha found enlightenment by the Bodhi tree. Sluggo, by the snowman. https://acadiaworldtraders.net/products/copy-of-teaching-buddha-statue-vitarka-mudra-handmade-suar-wood-carving

Calvin perfected the snowman joke, but Nancy was there first:

LOL. Another funny strip.

What I love is that Sluggo created a snowman in his own. Sluggo and snowman both lying down, both propped up on their elbows, both gazing at their little hand held devices.

That snow laziness, but a matter of perspective

It’s snow fun.

What a great gag!

As I recall in the 50s part of Sluggo’s persona was laziness.

Sluggo… a true “Type B” personality…. that we can all learn from…. he even manages to display that trait of himself in his work… his art.

Loved it!

A TALKING GIANT SNOWBALL! Oh, wait. Nevermind.

This was great. More like this and less about Robotics please.

I see that perspective is still a part of Nancy comics humor.

At least it isn’t one of Calvin’s snowmen.

We just got a fresh dump of snow here in Kansas City… I’m now inspired to go outside and recreate this scene IRL B^)

Earlier I said that panel 2 would function as surreally funny even if abstracted away from the context of the strip. But I think I was so taken by it that I missed the obvious fact that panel 3 is beautiful, wonderful all by itself. I wish I could buy that panel alone as a print.

Clever. :)

most excellent

Good one!
