In other OJ news, the Daily Cartoonist reports that the Joplin Globe have elected to replace “Non Sequitur” with Nancy, for reasons we should perhaps not go into, but you can read them here:
“The replacement cartoon is the family-friendly “Nancy.” Some of you will recognize the character. The girl in the strip is Nancy, one of the funny pages’ most revered creations. She has been 8 years old for 85 years running. She’s always been a little sassy, a little rude, 100 percent kid. In all of her iterations, she hates school, loves cookies and is always causing minor commotions. But the cartoon has been updated and revamped by an artist using the pseudonym Olivia Jaimes, according to the website’s description."
For some reason, I suspect the relationship will be short-lived.

It’s important to stay grounded.
Also, I see Agnes’ artistic ability is still … developing – she’s at about my level now.

you just gotta make a viral meme, and then all of the big companies that try too hard to act hip will have to pay you royalties
that’s how it works, right

Rats. The white kryptonite permanently wiped out my mind-reading-at-a-distance powers.

Nancy already is Internet famous. Rich? There’s no money is comics. Even Chris Ware can’t afford health insurance.
