Olivia Jaimes

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.
