Line 32:
When Bushmiller died, the ''Nancy'' strip was taken over by [[Mark Lasky]] (dailies) and [[Al Plastino]] (Sundays). Both kept the strip and Fritzi much as Bushmiller had left her. When [[Jerry Scott]] took over the dailies following the death of Lasky, he gradually reduced Fritzi's appearances until, by the time he took over the Sundays as well, she was reduced to only an off-panel voice, at most.
When [[Guy Gilchrist]] and his brother Brad took over, they re-introduced Fritzi, increasing her visibility to the point where she was equally prominent with Nancy herself. They also re-introduced Phil Fumble, an early boyfriend of Fritzi's, and the final strip of Gilchrist's run saw Phil and Fritzi getting married.
Current writer/artist [[Olivia Jaimes]] rebooted the series, bringing it back to the status quo of the late Bushmiller era, albeit with a focus on modern tech. Fritzi is once again the unmarried guardian of Nancy, making regular appearances.
