Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for October 13, 2020

Good morning, afternoon, evening, and night early readers!

Have a fantastic day!

I knew it

School Picture Guy is the master of “phrases that have never been spoken in existence”

Whats up with that bandaid? I never really tnought about it,but its always there

Nates gonna get a terrible pic obviously

ive never liked school picture guy. reason 1: he always has way too much speech thats annoying to read. reason 2: the jokes are mostly funny to older people. reason 3: the arcs with him are always the same thing, never original. reason 4: this is arguably the worst thing of it all: the band aid

Oh, the eighties. lotta stuff happened then.

I doubt Nate would be able to keep his spiky hair dormant for long.

School picture guy dosent look like 51 years old.

Eighties? There’s actually time in the Big Nate universe? Does this mean that the characters were living normal lives, going through time like normal, and then suddenly got trapped inside a never-ending time loop of the same year? And are they aware of it?

LOL! I remember seeing people wearing those when I was growing up. Not sad at all to see that go.

Finally! Now we just need him to not screw up! Is this Nate’s lucky day?

Why does photo-guy have a band-aid on his forehead?

Photo magic is so good!

Definitely eighties

What’s his badge say?

We all know how this is going to go:

1. A few days of comics featuring SPG and Nate talking to each other

2. Nate gets ready for his photo taken

3. Something traumatic happens that ruins Nate’s picture

…and that’s what we’re getting this week, unless Nate actually gets a good picture for once.

I remember those perms (shudder)

Imagine him having spiky hair

Nate’s going to screw up, this arc is nothing new. Nate is going to make some stupid face at the end and have it as his photo.

Let me predict the arc: School picture guys messes up Nate’s picture yayy

Hence the fact that he had a perm- so is his hair right on his head a perm???

I’m struggling to decide whether I want Nate to have a decent photo for once or just have another trainwreck photo so I can laugh at it.

Why is Nate even trying to fix his hair?

…the perm must’ve left some…….creepy, godawful blemish…..there on his head that the band-aid keeps covered………

school picture guy’s gonna make him look stupid again, it’s so obvious

HAI PEOPLES I MA KNEW TO GOCOMICKS

How do you deactivae a gocomics account?

Deactivate*

like one of those plain blue suits that go over your whole body

I think I might stop commenting for a while. I just want to enjoy the comic strips without annoying spammers and stuff :/

im just confused

A computer tries its hand at writing the panels after the 3rd panel:

Nate: School picture guy!SPG: Ah! What’s up, champ? Ready to make some photo magic?Nate: Yeah, just lemme do this.SPG: *chuckle Ah, the unruly mane of hair!SPG: How well I remember trying to tame my flowing locks back in the day!* Ah, I cannot tell you how many times I’ve had to run my hands through it behind the camera, and I’ve lost count of how many times I was laughed at for looking like a hobo!

Nate: Maybe not hobo? Not grunge? Glam rock?

SPG: Hey there! It’s a Gap shoot! And Matthew Broderick will be our lead this time around. How exciting, right?

Nate: Really? You don’t look like a McGravy.

SPG: Exciting? For me?

Nate: I don’t know, honestly, it kind of seems like being typecast.

SPG: WHAT?

Nate: For you? In anything?

SPG: OF COURSE NOT! I can do the same silly advertisements as anyone else. I like making people laugh. I mean, at least I’ll be in a movie that everyone will see. I know that Tilly, The Flash, and Caitlin were all in Elementary School Sadness, but it gets lost in that awful scene with the cookie monster, don’t you think?

Nate: Yeah.

SPG: Around that time, I was also in Talk to Me, the widely panned motion picture that killed Will Ferrell’s career. In that movie, I was a member of a comedy troupe that crashed at a funeral parlor because we lost various members and we were SO depressed, between us.

Nate: Really? What actors are in these productions?

immmmmmmm back

Dude I play among us during weekend LMAO

lol

What up everyone? Has anything big happened since I was gone?

Every school year, i was always given a perm..ah, the memories
