Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for January 18, 2012

you just know this is going to end in failure…

Okay, Galvin Down. Now….Coach John.

He’ll forget to do it that night

I can’t wait for the next strip. This is great.

I’m torn, I’d really like to see Nate go a week without detention, but it would be just so funny to see him doing pedicures and waiting on Gina. It’s a shame it can’t work both ways…

Gina gonna go crazy!!!!Nate,its sure you’re BIG!!!!!:D

Nate: 3 Gina: 0

Gina will snap and somehow both she and Nate will end up in detention, together.

Calm down, Gina, or else you’ll damage your record with a detention.

See that bring your homework tomorrow or you’ll lose the bet Nate!

Okay, WHAT HAS THIS IMPOSTER DONE WITH NATE? Are the Body Snatchers out and about again?

This is old humorless Galvin we’re talking about……..he might “appreciate honesty” but Nate’s not out of the woods with him yet…Nate’s got the rest of “Mr. Happyface’s” class, where he’s generally pretty lackluster anyway, to slog through before he can chalk up a “w” in the science class column. Haw! HAW!!

I love how this story line is playing out.

Now THERE’S an unexpected loophole. Well done, Nate.

Way to go Nate.Keep it up,I want to see him go all the way.

you were first but by the time I’m typing this you probably have a Jello-Neck-Bob thing going on in class/work. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Nates dad probably wrapped fish with it.

That was PURE LUCK, Nate. You ain’t gonna last one more day. Reply if you agree with me.

mr. galvin finally gave in.

I’m suspecting that Gina may have hedged her bets – sabotage, perhaps. But I’m really cheering for Nate, here. My only thing is that Nate is being good in order to win a bet with a rival. When Nate learns to be good for goodness sake, then I think he will learn the lesson absolute.

But I am indeed cheering for Nate. He’s demonstrating remarkable self-respect and self-control, and he’s being polite, apologetic and pleasant. If he keeps this up, he could easily become class president. And more.

But again. I am cheering for Nate. Gina, like Nate, has a bad attitude. I wonder what the relationship will be like between Nate and Gina once they hit puberty?

2days just3 more to go Nate so close. You can do it.

My second fave story line

Why dont you just always do this??

doesn’t Nate’s smile kind of look like the smile from the peanuts comic strips?

just saying

Gina’s expression in the last panel is priceless.

why would you get detention for forgetting your hw. or is that just me?

That looks like the scooby do face
