Nancy Wears Hats

The first volume in a new series collecting Ernie Bushmiller's timeless and belovedNancy!

Publisher Marketing: A great entry point into this classic comic strip thanks to the high quality of humor, characterization, and artwork.-- "Cinema Sentries" Review Quotes : Visual jokes, absurd situations, and undaunted determination to have fun make up the daily comics Ernie Bushmiller created from 1949 to 1950 for his charming (but never cutesy or sentimental) pals, Nancy and Sluggo... Before "meta" became a common prefix to describe self-referential storytellers, Nancy was breaking the fourth wall, quite willing to remind you that an arrangement of black and white geometric shapes can be funny.-- "Book Beat" Review Quotes : Bushmiller's Nancy strips show a mastery of closure. In virtually every strip, readers' eyes are effortlessly drawn across the page. I can say from experience that, despite my own pretensions to sophistication, I laugh while reading virtually every page of apparently simple gags in Nancy Wears Hats.-- "Truth, Beauty, Comics!" Publisher Marketing : The cartoonist Ernie Bushmiller stated that his beloved Nancy was created for "the gum chewers" and not the "caviar eaters," and this new collection of classic Nancy comic strips is perfect for gum chewers of all ages! Featuring over 300 comic strips, Nancy Wears Hats is a hilarious introduction to the timeless classic, beloved by generation after generation of children and adults.
