Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for December 28, 2023

Meh, this joke has happened a bit. 5/10.

This arc seems promising sofar

I mean, he is agreeable.

Once Francis gets up, it’s payback time for Nate

This joke’s so overdone and unlike yesterday, features no cute twist (though obviously we can’t expect a heartwarming moment each time, my critique is on how it’s not funny, not that it’s trying to just be funny).

3\10.

Lame

And Nate is just Nate!

Although it may seem like Francis is a doubter, he has a good point. Still I don’t want Nate and Daphne’s relationship to end too soon

That was unnecessary Nate.

Walked right into that one Francis.

nate, your action did nothing to prove francis otherwise.

XD! Might’ve been funnier yet to have seen Francis’ Holden Caulfield hat go flying!!

It’s an older gag, but it checks out…

What’s up with panel 1?

It would be nice to see an arc where Nate and Daphne go on a double date with Artur and Jenny

He’s right every one knows it’s flower petals that determine true love

Well, the first strip was adorable, but this is getting too far-fetched.

Excellent. Would’ve been a shame to let a good snowball go to waste……..

OK, I was excited for this arc, but this is getting old. Also, Poll: do you prefer arcs or daily jokes like Peirce did in the 90s?

Francis sometimes just need to shut up

fell for that one. :J

What did Daphne give Nate for Christmas?

How strong of a throw do you have to have to knock someone off their feet?

Yes, it is just a snowball.

Strip rating: 6/10 Am I the only one here who thinks this arc is starting to run just a tad bit dry…?

That advice certainly received a Frosty reception.

However, at two feet it could be considered a deadly weapon……

Nate’s relationship with Daphne is so stable, knock wood. The shortest relationship was with Daisy and I have that book.

5/10, mid, I guess. I’m back from my trip! It was wonderful! But it’s also wonderful to be back here!

And in the next strip, they find Daphne and Gina doing the same thing, where Gina’s being all logical and Daphne pastes her with a snowball

I kinda like the colors for the word pow. Weird thing to point out, but whatever.

A snowball is just a snowball…until Nate hits someone with it.

My great grandfather just passed away.

Good one. Well done, Nate.

Nate can be a real a$$!

Francis kinda had that one coming.
