Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for March 16, 2024

Looks at the ball dribbling out of bounds Looks like it’s heading to overtime In week 2 for Nate

Close call

Daphne I swear if you break up with him….

I think this arc will be extended to next week

And this close to their anniversary too-

Let out early? How did Nate manage that?

Nate is so clueless, and at least Daphne’s so called “friends” left, so there is no strike 3!

“She meant I’m gonna be looking for new friends soon.”

Judging by those two girls whispering to each other in the 3rd panel, this means that what Daphne will have to talk to Nate about will be heartbreaking. Who will Daphne listen to, them or herself? Guess we’ll find out when the next week of this arc starts…

I hope she doesn’t listen to those mean girls and see Nate with the same eyes she saw in him last week.

Daphne… don’t you *dare*…

wanna place bets? from whatever we’ve seen of daphne, this isn’t gonna be the end. if she’s influenced that easily this relationship wouldn’t have lasted this long.

This is getting interesting. 8/10, Hope this ends well!

Yeah, you two have a lot to talk about. Just make sure you have something to say!

Do not, Daphne. Do not, Daphne. Do NOT. I’m watching you.

I hope she tells him that she tells him how being in detention every day is hurting their relationship. Nate agrees, and vows to be a better student.

Looks like E wins.

Oh, no! Nate may be a jerk, but he’s sweet to Daphne and does NOT deserve dumping!

Feel sorry for Nate and Daphne.

Nate: “Wonder what she meant by that?”

Daphne: “Who cares? She’s not much of a friend. Certainly not a ‘sand dollar’ friend.”

Argh!!!!! I was hoping this story arc would have ended today!

This is actually bothering me because I remember when I was a teenager and my girlfriend’s friends would run me down to her. It’s nasty.

No…It’s on to overtime. Can’t wait for Monday!

…Rude!

Mean girls.

So… Two-week arc. Great. More time to process the pain.

Arc Rating (so far): 0/10

Comic Rating: 1/10

I walked home from my school yesterday. First time I ever did. It was long and tiring and I’m still tired today. That’s why I’m not all caps freaking out today. Plus, I’m just sick of this.

maybe Daphne will give in to peer pressure, maybe they even break up for a while until she realizes her “friends” were wrong. I know for sure this will have a happy ending no matter what :-)

She just meant she’s a meddlesome little witch, that’s all

If this is how they break up, tbh, they’ve had a really good run together. NOT TO MENTION THAT WE NEVER SAW THEM KISS!

Strip rating: 4/10 Saw the whole week. Those girls were blasting Nate.

Stand strong, Daphne! Your “friends” are creeps.

an arc without Nate?!?!?! “sarcasm”

Ugh, the suspense! I can’t stand it.

I just hope Daphne stays loyal.

Quit drawing it out! Just end their suffering! XD

Bro’s really leaving us on a cliffhanger-

It means that she is hoping that she is destroying your life

If this seriously happens I will lose my mind

Mrs C let him out early for good behavior – although that may change when Daphne tells him what the Mean Girls said.

The calm before the storm.

maybe Sunday will be part of the arc this time

This is why some people “ghost” others.

Nate has a chance to prove himself. He better not blow it.

cliffhanger!

Don’t do it, Daphne….they’re all just jealous of your relationship.

Next week will be intersting

Did Nate shave off his left eyebrow? O<[|;o)

no no no no no no no NOthis CANT BE HAPPENING

They’re just being their usual self. Let’s go get some chow.

I hope nothing. She is a smart girl that can think for herself and make her own decisions.However, this decision will define her. And again, this is not a life decision…..

oh no

this is getting juicy

The two “friends” look so satisfied. Let’s hope they will be disappointed by Daphne’s choice.

She needs to get new ‘friends’.

Interesting.

I hope Daphne isn’t actually considering breaking up with him

She doesn’t want to break up, she was peer pressured

what jack asse s.

Here it comes.

growing suspence…
