Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for January 13, 2021

7x: Not in class!

Me during quarantine when PG&E shut off power:

Oh no! Is Big Nate going to LEARN A LESSON??

If I didn’t have to attend one class, I’d be happy just to relax and do nothing until the next class

Whatever you do, Nate, DO NOT READ A BOOK! You’re in the Library, for crying out loud!

i swear if nate forgets that he doodles and goes back to class because he is bored then thats a no from me dawg

or he could defuse the c4 in the library no way mrs godfrey let ante go that easilly

This is all part of Mrs. Godfrey’s plan to get Nate to apply himself.

Lol Nate gonna have to beg Mrs Godfrey to let him back in. She’ll probably enjoy him begging her.

He reads a book about the War and likes it, memorises it and goes back to class and wows his nemesis; proving that he can do whatever he sets his mind to. Go Nate!

Prediction: It looks like Mrs. Godfrey is actually teaching him a lesson… that class is much more interesting! Roaming the halls endlessly is boring eventually. She’s trying to convince Nate to actually LIKE class!!!

Poll: what’s your favorite song. ( I won’t make fun of you)

Why do I feel like he will soon become bored and go back to class or something like that idk

I get that the implication that he has to read to stay entertained, but… surely there’s at least one fiction book in the library that he would like?

nate needs help, per say a iphone

By reading……

why doesnt he draw comics about godzilla or just go home or play a prank,or read the old yearbooks

At this point I’d just leave the library

….it will seep in slowly, kid…….reason has to work that way with especially hard heads……….

READ YOU IDIOT! YOUR IN A LIBRARY. TRY READING 39 CLUES. SINCE YOU ALWAYS ACT LIKE SHERLOCK HOLMES.

nate- your in a library. READ!

By doing what? Play table football.. but wait, you need two people to play it.. I guess you can do a yo mama smackdow.. Oh wait, you also need two people. Huh, being the only free bird is quite boring, isnt it, Nate?

Read?! I mean come on guys, this is NATE!! Strictly, the library is for 2 things only. Table Football and Bean Bag chair diving.

By reading, Nate

ooooooh he might go back to class next strip…

I think this arc might be the end of big nate?

Check with Caulfield over in Frazz. He always has productive ideas.

ANYTHING fool!

me when the internet cuts out

How do you entertain yourself? Aimlessly wander the hallways!

maybe not going to school isn’t so bad!

Clearly, he does not own a smartphone.

yep, he’s gonna come back. :O

Maybe Nate is actually learning a lesson and my theory is wrong. Or maybe not….

“By doing what?” Nate says as he walks away. “I’ll give you something to do” a strong voice behind him yells. Nate gets stuffed into a bag and goes unconscious. He wakes up and he is no longer in that bag. Wind is blowing hard into Nates face. He looks around as his eyes adjust to the light. He is 500 ft off the ground hanging from a building. Nate realizes he is tied to a pole and standing on a thin piece of plywood. Suddenly, Chester stomps his way over. “Chester!?” Nate says shocked. Chester laughs loudly that his voice was booming. “Oh i’m not Chester” says Chester. Then Chester starts melting into mush. Near Chesters feet, a form was being taken. “CHAD?!” Nate yells, very confused. “I have you trapped now!” says Chad. “Let me ask you Nate, have you ever seen me and Chester at the same time? Chester was my extra form.” Nate is shocked. He thought Chad was the last person to be evil. He was to nice. Chad kicked the piece of plywood Nate was standing on off the building. Now Nate was hanging from just the rope. His feet were dangling down. Nate was trapped. Suddenly, someone shoots Chad with a dart. It did not kill him, but knocked him out. “Hello Nate” says Nate’s Mom.

Its confirmed. He’s gonna go back to Mrs Godfrey out of boredom.

See, this is why I like going to school: It’s actually something to do.

Where is BIg RAFY? Did he get banned?

As a librarian, this cracks me up—the biggest movers in my library are the Nate books!

lol I think Nate’s grade is plummeting down.

lol

I once had a student who was constantly disrupting class. So everyday, I’d meet him outside the door to the classroom before the 2nd bell would ring and hand him a pass to the library. Came to find out that every other teacher was doing the same thing with him! Librarian eventually begged me to quit sending him there.

Hey guys. I’m sorry to say this, but i’m gonna have to quit GoComics. The reason is because there’s too much stuff going on in my life and I never had the chance to comment here daily. I will still use the site, but I won’t comment that much. Goodbye Commenters…

Would you rather be an eagle or wolf

cool

Read up on Ben Franklin Nate. He’ll have some good advice on how to keep your grades up while sticking it to Mrs. Godfrey at the same time.

wurf wurf! (translation: we all know what is about to happen…)

Yeah what could Nate do

I can see whats happening here.

Oh no nate’s gonna go back to class!

Hmmm….you’re in a library…. maybe Read?

Imagine Nate reading a book without being required to. That’s never happened.

It’s only one class, practice your art, read a book, shoot some hoops. The sky is the limit….

I think this is like a transition comic building up to a big joke, like on Seinfeld. But it isn’t funny on its own

Hi im new here and i have been reading big nate comics since i was 6

I think my girlfriend is ditching me

What are they saying? I dont speak Taco Bell

OR Hong Kong City

Haha love it.

Gosh i dunno maybe read??

Why do I have a hunch that he’s gonna meet another girl here-

okay my prediction is that nate will get bored, go back to class then at the end tell francis that he hates miss godfery but also needs to sit thorugh the class like he always sits near gina. i dunno

XD maybe this is all a dream Godfrey would never ever ever do that if I could imagine it

I’m haveing trouble sleeping HELP

We will soon find out what happened next.

In a twist of irony, studying!

I have never had a hard time finding a way to occupy myself in a library.

I love big nate it makes me feel so alive

Alone in the library surrounded by books. You might as well read.

My school gives out computers so I would just sit in the library gaming lmao

Well Nate, you can go to the cafetorium and eat

uh.. reading. ur in a library

By sleeping

Who wants to tell him?
