Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for August 23, 2024

Wow. Miranda. No one predicted right

Mystery solved!

I forgot her name? I never thought it would be her!

Miranda is low-key really annoying, and should be removed from the strip along with Kim and Uncle Ted, who’s with me?!?!

Miranda caught me off guard and based on my comment on Tuesday it caught everyone off guard

But hey it seems like Nate is actually a good detective now

Miranda!

Just realized that those kids get bullied around quite a lot.

Judging by her smile, I’d say she already unsuccessfully tried to ride it herself, before arriving at the conclusion that it was better suited for farm work.

Welp, time to get a new skateboard, Francis. U r not getting that one back.

Is this girl that tough?

Remember – the saying is “candy from a baby”, not “skateboard from a little gir’s doll.”

Well, I bet Francis will ask for it back and Miranda will punch him in the face, because a five year old beating someone up is considered “funny” and we’re gonna ignore all the times it’s been done before, where she beats up Nate, Teddy, Deedee, Randy, and Spitsy, with no repercussions or anything new to spice it up. Maybe this time something different will happen. But I doubt that. Francis should just let Miranda have it for the day, then when she goes inside for her bedtime he can take it, and if she takes it inside he can just knock on her door and ask her parents for it, and take a picture of her with the skateboard as proof.

You are both bigger than her. Just take it back!

It’s like taking candy from a baby, except Miranda is the one who should say that

Finally putting to good use!!!!

Where are Miranda’s parents? Why are they OK with their 6-year-old stealing stuff?

Well, I did not see that coming. Nice use of turn of events,Mr. Pierce!

Who knew it was Miranda

Who guessed Miranda?

ok wait i thought we were in another comics war?

Nate say: “Pay me (I know he said he’d do it for free, but by now I bet he’s changed his mind (Hark! Is that the ice cream man he hears?), and I’ll just be moseyin’ along……..the rest is YOUR baby!…..”……

Oh my, it’s Ol Bean facing against the Incredible Entitled Toy Hoarder.

Guys I am back now!

guess whos back

miraaandaa sighting. thats rare asff it must have bin 20 yrs since she brought in

That took five days.

OOoOOoOoh, snap…

Never get between a mother and her dolly.

And, now, boys, you’ll have to fight your way thru to getting that skateboard back!!

10/10 I wonder what happens next. So, you see, boys, if Miranda doesn’t let you have the skateboard back, just jab her in the solar plexus for self defense if she attacks, grab it, and run like heck.

Ogch. She’s gonna kill Nate and Francis if they try to take the skateboard from Miranda.

Of course its miranda, why did I never think of that? Anyways this is why I have pepper spray in my pocket

It would be funnier if the brutal Kim were riding the board.

One of the rare instances were detective Nate solves the case

Sir. DON’T YOU SEE HIS ADDRESS?!?!?!!?

Might as well let her keep it

Of course it’s Miranda. She’s stolen stuff from people’s front yard before.

hm

This is like the ball going over the fence in “The Sandlot”

Hoo boy…
