Nancy is an American icon. She’s timeless. She’s a meme. The world-famous artist Andy Warhol once painted her portrait. She’s been on a postage stamp. To this day- when you look up “comic strip” in The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language- it shows a Nancy comic by Bushmiller! As another famous cartoonist once put it- “It’s easier to read a Nancy comic than it is to not read one.” Nancy- along with on-and-off again boyfriend Sluggo- deliver absurd laughs panel after panel- all rendered in Bushmiller’s chiseled cartoon perfection that feels untethered to time or place. An acknowledged masterpiece of humor and cartooning- Nancy’s brand of lowbrow absurdism and unexpected visual delights have held sway over generations of early readers- artists and celebrities- to say nothing of its impact on American culture as a whole! Bushmiller created Nancy from 1938 to 1982- and in recent years- interest in his work has surged to a fever pitch. Jam-packed with over 300 comic strips from the years 1953–1954- Nancy For All Seasons features a fresh and contemporary new design that will entertain all ages.
