Praise
“Ernie Bushmiller’s long-running comic strip, Nancy, helped establish the way we think visually.” —The Atlantic
“Bushmiller refined his art, honed it to its barest essentials, and thereby produced a comic strip that in many respects was the very apotheosis of a comic strip.” —The Comics Journal
“Bushmiller choreographed his familiar formal elements inside the tightest frame of any major strip, and that helped make it the most beautiful, as a whole, of any in the papers.” —The Village Voice
“[A] sturdy American product and often a good chuckle.” —The New York Times
“Nancy invites us to meditate on Bushmiller’s iconic landscape. She is pure Zen.” —Bill Griffith, author of Three Rocks: The Story of Ernie Bushmiller: The Man Who Created Nancy
“Universalizing historians have given the newspaper comic strip a distinguished pedigree as the twentieth-century descendant of sacred Egyptian hieroglyphics. True or not, no classic strip was better suited to embellish the inner sanctum of Pharaoh Tut’s tomb than Ernie Bushmiller’s long-running tot saga Nancy…. If Bushmiller was the comic-strip artist’s comic-strip artist, Nancy was a trademark to rival Coca-Cola’s logo.” —J. Hoberman, Artforum
“It is possible that Nancy is the best comic today, principally because it combines a very strong, independent imagination with simplification of the best tradition of comic drawing.” —The New Republic
