There’re two really good story ideas here – teach doesn’t want to let them know she’s nervous – she has to manage dopey players. I wouldn’t have crammed them into the same strip.
I love the current run of Nancy. Jaimes tends to design detail too small for the panel. Smaller than Bushmiller who was drawing for way larger page spaces. Like the detail on Nancy’s drawing is hard to make out on a small screen. Maybe I’m noticing it because I read the strip on a laptop screen and it wouldn’t be so small on a desktop screen?
The character on the left (forget her name) sounds like a Nero Wolfe fan! Nero used to say something very similar.
