Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for January 17, 1991
Transcript:
A Typical Day (continued) Every morning I meet Francis and we walk to the bus stop. Most of the time Francis is my best friend. He is sort of a weenie, but as best friends go, I guess I could do worse note: gap between front teeth Even if we weren't best friends, I would probably have to hang out with him anyway, because we are in all the same classes at school. Francis: Gee, Thanks for letting me read this! Nate:What are friends for?

Francis finally appears on this comic strip. And, Matchip, I can answer your question. Teddy doesn’t go to P.S. 38 right now. He’s at another school somewhere. He’ll appear in the year 1994.

It’s surprising how Nate can always seem to mark out other people’s problems but is oblivious to his own problems. He is either haughty or just plain clueless, as usual.

Nate is interesting. I’m not sure he even knows he’s being mean. In his mind he’s simply being honest.
