Explores how Olivia Jaimes’s 2018 reboot of the legacy comic strip exemplifies the adaptability of contemporary flexible comics to serve divergent audiences, from nostalgic fans who read the daily comics in newspapers to newer webcomic readers. Rebooted comic strips like Nancy directly confront the stereotypical representations that haunt the past of comics.
