Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for December 26, 2012
Transcript:
Mercy! Looks like somebody got everything on his wish list! Yeah... Almost. Almost? I ask for a dog every year, but I never get one. For heaven's sake, Marty, if the boy wants a dog, give him a dog! Gramps! My man! Dad, can I speak with you in the kitchen?

No colour? And Gramps says it so matter of factly, too. Let him have a dog. Looking after pets is a sacrifice parents make for their children. Pets give so much and ask for so little. Besides, they can be excellent entertainment. Like rapping on the wall and asking the dog “Who’s there?” Or a gob of peanut butter on the roof on its mouth.

1st, 2nd and 3rd; and nothing of import in any one of them.A statement of no importA meandering plea ANDAn echo of the strip!

Maybe the “colors-the-strip-crew” took off for Christmas day: thus 2-day’s “bleached-out” strip! Orrrrrrrrrrrrr…….lightning is striking twice!! Today’s not in color, AND Marty’s dad is weighing in, finally, on the dog-for-Christmas issue!!

what is wrong with a boy and his dog?
bignate creator over 11 years ago
Must be some sort of glitch on the website today, but the traditionalist in me loves seeing the strip in glorious black and white!
choco bear over 11 years ago
I vote that Nate gets a DOG.
Bimps1002 over 11 years ago
Ahhh, black and white. I wish there was an option to see all the other BN comics in black and white, except sunday of course.
ncalifgirl58 over 11 years ago
Also, there is nothing like a good Grandpa!
jackdohany over 11 years ago
I must agree with Gramps this time.

@ Coolio Say What – I think you’d be better off joining a forum devoted to writing or cartooning than looking for help here. The commenters here, for the most part, are neither writers nor cartoonists.

Oh… No…
kronosandhermes over 11 years ago
I think kalia should be 13 so she would have a motherly instinct to protect a younger child.
calvinsfriend110 over 11 years ago
How about a goldfish?
cookies333 over 11 years ago
It was just a suggestion. I didn’t mean it in a bad way. I think it’s great to have female cartoon characters.

I mean that kids at my middle school call me a stupid girl. They know I’m not a girl, then I ask them a bunch of algebra questions. The say they are geniuses, but they claim algebra is not “real math”, so they do not know how to do it. Lamest excuse ever

did you know that lincoln actually started big nate in late 1991 and he made like 10 comic strips
ComicParakeets over 11 years ago
In 1991? I thought 1992…I guess I was wrong… anyhow maybe we should petition saying we want to read previous Big Nate strips!
ComicParakeets over 11 years ago
Just an idea…
dragonstein over 11 years ago

ComicParakeets over 11 years ago

ComicParakeets over 11 years ago
