Nancy was created by Ernie Bushmiller in the 1930s. Since 1995, the strip has been drawn and written in Bushmiller's classic style by Guy and Brad Gilchrist. Nancy is famed for its gentle humor and surrealistic sight gags. Nancy's childlike innocence never wavers. She remains a devoted friend to her pal Sluggo, and can be, depending on the situation, a conceited prima donna or a fun-loving, cute and cheeky little girl.

And indeed there will be time
To wonder, “Do I dare?” and, “Do I dare?”
Time to turn back and descend the stair, …

In the 2nd panel, she looks kind of like Flattop in Dick Tracy.

In any change, Nancy’s hair still looks like a porcupine.

Nancy “Flattop” Ritz

In panel three, Nancy looks disturbing like Zippy the Pinhead. Zippy creator Bill Griffith is a great fan of Nancy creator Ernie Bushmiller.

It took me a while to grow on me, but Zippy has become one of my favorite strips. It’s not a “laugh a day” strip like Nancy or Blondie, but I do enjoy Griffy’s commentary on today’s society.

Of course, Nancy is still a favorite and has been since I first started reading comics.

Sounds a little Seussical.

Good morning, everyone! I always like to read your comments, especially on the “hair” jokes! Thanks so much for helping to grow “NancyNation”! Hundreds upon hundreds of hits not just here, but tons on faceBook, thousands on twitter, and the signing up at NancyAndsluggo.com is going really well. It’s very gratifying, I’m sorry to sound corny, but, really…. I’ve been doing this strip for 17 years and the growth this year has really given me a boost! I thank you, and my terrific partners at Universal and United.

With that Conehead look in 3rd panel she could always claim to be from France …☺

Sometimes change for the sake of change isn’t needed or necessary.

I take it that Nancy has tight naturally curly hair. She looks cute just the way she is. :)
