Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for December 06, 2012
Transcript:
...And the cinematography is... Sir? This is a non-smoking building. I'm not smoking, young man! This pipe is merely a prop to lend realism to my costume! Chuckle! And it obviously worked since you mistook me for an actual wizard! Kid, tell him I'm not a wizard. Yeah. Not even close.

@sonytvNot a Sherlock Holmes pipe, it is suppose to be a Gandor the Gray type of pipe.

Picture Guy’s pipe looks like a “church warden”. In the books Sherlock Holmes smoked an old oily clay pipe, not a Calabash as is depicted in the movies.

@Agent54It’s not Gandor the Gray, for heavens’ sakes! It’s GANDALF the GREY. Please go read the Tolkien books before the Hobbit comes out next week.

Well, that’s sort of a long story, but here goes: When I started the strip, I was living in New York City. In New York, many of the public schools have numbers, which I thought was kind of cool. So I gave Nate’s school a number for a name, not really realizing that NYC is really the only place in the US with school names like that. So by naming Nate’s school P.S. 38, I probably created some confusion. Some people might think that means Nate lives in NYC, which of course he doesn’t. If I were doing it all over again, I’d give his school a “real” name. Incidentally, I chose the number 38 because it was my street address growing up: 38 Coe Drive in Durham, New Hampshire.

PS 38 seemed perfectly natural to me but then, I grew up in Weschester Co. NY just north of the Bronx.
