Nancy and Sluggo's Guide to Life 

by Ernie Bushmiller FINALLY!  Ernie Bushmiller's iconic classic, Nancy is back in print, thanks to the fine folks at New York Review Comics – and Denis Kitchen, who provides the forward to this volume – the first of many, we can only hope.  It's hard to believe that a strip so beloved by so many and so central to the history of comics has been completely out of print for close to a decade.  But, the drought is now officially over – it's here: 148, 8 1/2" x 11" pages in glorious black & white.

Now available up on our site, HERE.

You might be familiar with the comic character Nancy and her Aunt Fritzi. But did you know Fritzi was the original star of the strip?

The comic strip was created in 1922 by Larry Whittington. It told the ongoing antics of Fritzi Ritz, a ditzy flapper. Ernie Bushmiller took over the strip in 1925 and soon introduced Fritzi’s niece Nancy. By 1938, Nancy and her best friend Sluggo took over the strip.
