      The authors use a single three-panel Nancy strip to explain how the medium of comics works. Everything that you need to know about reading, making, and understanding comics can be found in a single Nancy strip by Ernie Bushmiller from August 8, 1959. Paul Karasik and Mark Newgarden’s groundbreaking work How to Read Nancy ingeniously isolates the separate building blocks of the language of comics through the deconstruction of a single strip. No other book on comics has taken such a simple yet methodical approach to laying bare how the comics medium really works. No other book of any kind has taken a single work by any artist and minutely (and entertainingly) pulled it apart like this. How to Read Nancy is a completely new approach towards deep-reading art. In addition, How to Read Nancy is a thoroughly researched history of how comics are made, from their creation at the drawing board to their ultimate destination at the bookstore. Textbook, art book, monogram, dissection, How to Read Nancy is a game changer in understanding how the “simplest” drawings grab us and never leave. Perfect for students, academics, scholars, and casual fans. Black-and-white Nancy cartoons throughout

      Acclaimed cartoonist Mark Newgarden debuted in RAW magazine in 1980, quickly gaining recognition across various media. He co-created the "Garbage Pail Kids" phenomenon, wrote and drew a weekly humor feature in the '90s, and produced a "Web Premiere Toon" for The Cartoon Network titled "B. Happy." Currently, he is developing an unconventional Christmas special for the network. Newgarden's comics are a blend of humor and avant-garde storytelling, seamlessly integrating classic gags with innovative narratives. His syndicated strips in publications like L.A. Weekly and The New York Press garnered a dedicated following and significantly influenced the comic medium. This book primarily compiles his syndicated comics, alongside long-form stories from anthologies, including the acclaimed "Love's Savage Fury." It provides a comprehensive view of Newgarden as an artist, his influences, and his diverse careers. As a collector and historian of 20th-century ephemera, he has enriched the mediums of novelties, comics, and cartoons. Edited by Dan Nadel and designed by Helene Silverman, this book promises to be a humorous and engaging exploration that will resonate with comics enthusiasts, pop culture aficionados, and graphic arts admirers alike.
