Olivia Jaimes is a pseudonymous American cartoonist who began writing and illustrating the long-running daily comic strip Nancy in 2018, updating it for a modern audience.
[3] Jaimes began producing the Nancy comic strip in 2018, following the retirement of Guy Gilchrist after a 22-year run.
In particular, Jaimes drew Aunt Fritzi less like her original pin-up-style design, instead depicting her in a style similar to the other characters in the strip.
[5] She also modernized the setting, with frequent references to current trends and technologies, such as smartphones, social media, ear buds, and a robotics club.
[citation needed] Social engagement on the comic strip's page increased 500 percent compared with the end of Gilchrist's run.
