Coming Soon 👀 At the beginning of April, you’ll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
The set-up was good, and the first two panels were good. Somehow, the third panel fizzled a bit. Not so much the artwork, as the awkward phrasing of the punchline. It leaves you with a “hunh?” Who is the “we,” and what is the “run” being referred to? The ten seconds? The literal run of eyes and nose? A re-do of the wording in the third panel might well improve this.
The funniest thing about all the angry old frightened “purists” not getting any of these extremely simple jokes is that they resemble the sensibility of Bushmiller’s Nancy more than the strip has in my lifetime.
Love Olivia. Nice to have a daily strip to follow again.

Sad how allergies take the fun away from fun things.

With art like that, I next expect to see Blue Meanies.

The new Nancy sucks. We’d be better off if they started the old one from the beginning.

“NEW” NANCY DRAWINGS SUCK. LOST THE “VIBE.”

More wondrous achievements from a cartoonist who’s made it into the 21st century.

Very cute. I sure as hell am glad though that I do not have allergies that act up like that, myself.
From a drawing perspective… I am very appreciative of how Olivia has drawn the “watery eye effect”. It was done quite artistically.
The new “Nancy”…. WONDERFUL!!!!! I look forward to it every day.

Olivia does such a fantastic job in the face of such unwarranted negativity. Never used to read this comic, and now it’s a part of my daily routine.

Same here, Nancy, except I start sneezing uncontrollably.

This is starting to seem more like the EB version. I’ll reserve judgement for a while.

Okeh gag, so-so delivery.

Still, leaves a good Impressionism.

It’s because of the flowers and trees. Bunch of sex crazed perverts.

The gags are inconsistent. The art is off. I’ll continue to read it, just as I read that awful Funky Winkerbean.

I think I’ve got it figured out. Olivia Jaymes is Peter Max! And I think Peter did a good strip today.

I’m still waiting for inspiration, wit and humanity, not to mention draughtsmanship.

No depth or dimension on the panels
