Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for February 03, 2023

I bet Dee Dee’s beat boxing was awful

Same old jokes. Yawn.

As a cartoonist myself, not to brag but I’ve done awesome drawings. I’ve not yet reached an abstract phase, though if I do, here’s a good technique: Just draw some scribbles, lines, and unusual shapes, all over the place, and BAM, you have abstract. Man, I’m really thinking about Mary Ellen Popowski’s art from Big Nate Lives It Up.

We all go through phases. I used to be an avid journal keeper, now it is good if I update it every two weeks. Then again, I am a homemaker and solidly and lovingly married, so not much really happens to write about I suppose, save for the collapse of the US that I see happening (homelessness, lawlessness, and politics everywhere).

Erm. I don’t hope to see Dee Dee’s Beat Boxing Period.

Sounds like it was fun.

My father took up painting, and he was good. And after a while, he understood abstract. “It’s not enough to just draw well. After a while, you want to find something new that’s all yours and nobody has done before.”

Imagine Dee Dee beatboxing. I am. I’m crying laughing.

Strip rating: 5/10 Dee Dee ‘s acting and performances are so good that they’re bad.

Nah, it was probably just cringe.

Why is dee dee always in these strips? She appears more then chad surprisingly…

Don’t make him feel any worse than he already does. He really knows how he failed himself…..

Artist here, I hate abstract.

wut

….she was, like, alive then?

I went through an “abstract” phase – in kindergarten.

Beatboxing AND breakdancing? wow Dee Dee goes through some weird ‘Periods’.
