Everybody that loves Nancy loves it in a slightly condescending way. Nancy is comics reduced to their most elemental level.

Comics is a language. It's a language most people understand intuitively.

They have won breathing room for negotiations to take place to maintain a slightly reduced presence.

Then I abandoned comics for fine art because I had some romantic vision of being like Vincent Van Gogh Jr.

I went to an art school in Brooklyn and painted Fine Art, if that's what you'd call it for eight years in New York, until I saw the first underground comics in the East Village Other.

If you do it in peer-level approach, rather than a condescending control approach, you'll have much more success.
