Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for November 06, 2023

ooh we haven’t seen mr rosa in a while

Artur arc! Nate’s going to be sooooooo pised off about this xp

Huh, a Nate vs Artur arc. Been a long time, no? Memory might be failing me, but outside of their dueling comic strips and that one scene in the first novel, a full, proper art contest between them is yet to happen.

7|10, classic Nate sarcasm face adds a point, this has decent potential! (Still wish Daphne wasn’t absent for about a month and counting, but I judge this arc on what it is, not what it isn’t)

Mr Rosa AND Artur! And a contest…could be predictable with who wins…Let’s see! Exciting!

Of course ARTUR is gonna win…

Strip rating: 3/10 Lemme guess, Nate’s jealous of Artur, Artur wins, Nate gets annoyed, the end? If that’s the case, I’m not looking forward to this…

That’d be too boring. Maybe Pierce is thinking of another plot or something

Poll: Whats your favorite big nate strip?

Uh oh. Looks like the lucky vs. unlucky rivalry is still on

Oooh I like this idea! Has a lot of potential! If it’s anything like last week, we’ll get a good twist near the end!!

Welp, time for Artur to win the contest with a talent he didn’t know he had!

I am sure Arthur will win again, same old sh*t

Nate’s attitude towards Artur is gonna ruin this arc.

Aw yes, jolly facial expressions, but would he be grunting or thinking when he does these?

Get over it, Nate

Is Daphne just non-existent at this point?

This arc will either be predictable or funny

No, no, NO! Not this again! Artur and his tactless ways beat Nate extremely easily…

Unless there’s some twist to this, this is just gonna make me mad. 4/10

I hate Artur I can guess this arc already “Nate vs Artur who has the best art please Nate crush him

So, it’s awesome when he wants to do the cover but he’s sarcastic when another kid wants to do the cover?

…Ah, HERE we go again!………..

If there is a competition then I better see Nate win it always makes me happy when Nate is not messed

Let’s see who will win

Also when was the last time we saw deedee

Neither of them is going to win. I’m calling it now.

7/10, as long as Nate wins, I´m gonna like this arc! Wordle answer: Comic!

god, the outlines are thick

Well, we know who’s going to win the contest LOL

Today is my b-day

I love Nate and Mr Rosas dynamic

Also I wonder who’s going to win

…and what will happen next?

Let me guess. Artur wins?

I predict some third person, as yet unseen, shall win. Thus causing extra consternation to Nate, when Artur happily congratulates the winner- who will be younger than Nate, too.

Coincidence! My school had a yearbook cover contest this year, too! I wonder who’s going to win. I hope it’s Nate!

Love Artur speak!

Poll: Whats your favorite book? Mine is probably tangerine by edward bloor

One of my favorites is when it is a Summer Olympics year and Nate’s neighborhood decides to have their own Olympics since none of them have the money to go to the real Olympics. Nate notices something in the weeds and upon closer inspection sees three or four Mountain Dew cans. Knowing that Mountain Dew is loaded with caffeine he exclaims something like “We have a doping scandal here!”

i bet arturs gonna win but nates gonna try 3/5

The face that tells me Nate “loves” the competition. Not.

YES! A competition!

Okay, Mr. Peirce, if you’re going to keep refusing to make storylines with Daphne, then can you just break her and Nate up? That would be better than having a major character that just isn’t there.

‘Jolly Face Expressions’ lol

Nate already knows he is going to lose.

Can we please find a reason to axe Artur from the strip?

Only Artur would say “jolly” in 2023…
