Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for September 03, 2023

Crazy

its ok nate youre not the only one who had a bad summer

And yet it ended with both. Ouch

This specific exact joke has been done before, just Francis was less of a jerk (man he has been bad recently) and the joke was better structured. This is just copy paste and weak, the punchline barely registers. But hey, Nate wanted to, um, do something fun, what a demon, thank goodness he got hurt through no fault of his own! That’s how comedy works!

2\10. Low, I know, but this is so lazy.

i can see the title now: when “i believe i can flyyy” kicks in

Turns out it was both!

Not sure how it has ended but I can bet it was both

Poor Nate!

Soon….Daphne returns!! (Actually, she should be home already!)

Nothing like starting the new school year with your arm or leg in a cast. Way to go Nate!

Hold my beer and watch this

Too bad Nate didn’t wear any wrist guards or pads

I’m glad he was wearing a helmet.

lol I actually thought this was a rerun and then I checked the copyright date.

Okay, you guys are right. This is Francis’ worst run yet. His friend is lying on the floor whimpering in pain, and he’s getting pleasure out of it. Strip’s still a decent joke tho, so 6/10

It’s amazing how many guys (always a guy) don’t realize trains are wider than the tracks.

5/10, a pretty funny joke, but feels like I heard it somewhere. Yay, school for Nate in 2 days!

I ended the summer between 2nd & 3rd grade with a broken arm.

You missed it……

I think there was a sunday strip where something similar happened like nate getting a wedgue trying to skateboard by a streetlamp/pole i think

missed it by THAT much

Nate Knievel.

again

Yep, summer is indeed about having adventures.

That’s why my family and I went to Florida to visit Walt Disney World and Universal.

You didn’t have fun, Nate? Did you forget about the time you were able to spend with DAPHNE before she left for camp? Did you forget about the letter you wrote to her?

(Of course, Sunday strips generally don’t tie in with the Mon-Sat continuity…)

Once that is posted, he will be a legend…. just perhaps not the kind he had in mind.

Where did he get the ramp?

What was the stunt supposed to be?

Strip rating: 1/10 I don’t really get it…

Nate: Falls from several feet in the air on his stomach, heavily bruised with his legs sticking up and whimpering in pain

Francis: lol

Nate, you know what needs to be done

But for a moment it was pure awesomeness.

He’ll be fine.

It’s not so bad that he’s bringing old jokes to the new generation. But I want to see these jokes on the TV Show.

Francis has beeen toxic recently.

i think this is really creative although some people may not get it. so…. for the people who dont understand, it means that francis’s summer went out with a bang, and nates summer went out with a wimper.

8/10

You can criticize it if you want, but when you do it EVERY SINGLE DAY, even when people politely ask you not to, it gets really annoying (many others can testify this too). You shoot them down and saying, “So I can’t voice my opinions?” You probably will do that to this comment too. So I ask you nicely, next time you have the urge to say crap about this comic, please keep it to yourself, or in a short message. Thank you.

At least Francis was recording

ow.

…now THAT is what you call “burning the candle at BOTH ends”……

Aww! Nate looks so cute On the top right!

Comic Critic! overused joke, and a bad back-to-school plot. 4/10

Run over to Adam At Home and help Katy out.

So I guess the whole Daphne arc wasn’t fun

The second to last panel is how I would feel

oh no… I feel so so so bad for Nate… this sunday did not make me laugh, but I’m not a comic reviewer so… :(

how the heck did he get a ramp!?
