Montgomery Gentry Make the Funny Papers

Columbia Nashville’s Montgomery Gentry recently took an animated form as characters in “Nancy,” one of the most beloved comics of all time. The duo’s June 23^rd induction to the legendary Grand Ole Opry became inspiration for an episode of the internationally syndicated comic strip.

Upon seeing his cartoon alter-ego in print, Troy Gentry said, “What a nice surprise in my Sunday paper! I think we might have made Nancy’s aunt’s shirt once, but to be the subject and for them to include our Opry induction is very cool. And I’ve always wondered what I’d look like as a cartoon. Very flattering.”
Famous for its gentle humor and childlike innocence, the strip was created by Ernie Bushmiller in the 1930s, and since 1995, it's been drawn and written in Bushmiller's classic style by brothers Guy and Brad Gilchrist, the award-winning cartooning team behind The Muppets Comic Strip. At present, “Nancy,” with more than 70 million regular readers, may be viewed in more than 350U.S. newspapers and on www.comics.com, as well as in publications in some 80 countries.
