Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for April 14, 2023

Finally, this arc is having decent pacing.

I see Nate and Jenny are just “friends” now.

Let’s hope he is brave enough to ask and not bow out by the last frame. Learn that honesty and truth is the way to win hearts.

This may be very awkward…

do you guys think we’ll get to see GFno4? or is this gonna end miserably? Personally i don’t think this is gonna work out

Oh, hi, Daphne. How long had you been standing there? What, your locker is also in this same hallway as Jenny’s?

I want Nate to get another girlfriend already. It’s been 8 years since he broke up with Trudy

Standard nate face in panel 2 btw really lovin this arc

My, don’t girls always have the worst timing? Nate has to think fast.

One panel left, he’s gonna get burned

Oops, a swing and a hit but the hit crashed through a window into a car and rolled into a gas station and bumped the monitor making gas spill everywhere.

Lie or say the truth she’s gonna find out anyway

Well… are you gonna ask her or not, Nate?

either nate is gonna fumble this or ace itwhat do you guys think will happen?

Ooooooooo, excited to see what happens tomorrow, hopefully Nate doesn’t mess this up

Give this strip a straight A

I dont really see Nate and Daphne a couple, to be honest…..

MAY DAY MAY DAY! Run Nate RUN!

….a reasonable demand from Nate….after all, he unwillingly delivered the valentine from Jenny to Artur that blew Nate’s slim-to-none chances with Jenny completely out of the water……Jenny should back off about now…….

Can’t wait for tomorrow’s comic

Either Nate’s gonna confess and we’ll get a “I don’t know”, or he panics and runs off. I still don’t think we’ll get anything insane.

this all started because gina asked why did nobody like her

How about just telling her you like her by writing it on the back of a detention slip?

awkward

Hes gonna ask tomorrow but we are not gonna find out the answer until monday most likely.

If it’s a rejection tomorrow I’m gonna freak out.

Big Nate has turned into a total soap opera

Oopsie…..

I would love to see Nate get a girlfriend again but lets be real peirce isn’t doing that

“Back to you, Jenny!”

peirce is stretching it a little but i am interested so 4/5

This was a very mature thing to say. Bravo Nate! Now let’s see what he’s really going to say to Daphne. Probably a general question about their lab work.

Ah…. The Plot Thickens

Imagine if Daphne likes Nate… As a friend.

i seriously doubt that we are going to see daphne as nates new girlfriend, so i wouldnt get my hopes up

Anyways the arc is good

Calling it now, Daphne will want to be just friends

Actually decent pacing, we love to see it!

Not funny because it’s story progression again, but I’m not complaining, it’s good story progression! Also Jenny’s enthusiasm is kinda nice!

In hindsight we know that Nate chickens out at first so it doesn’t totally go somewhere, but I’ll give it a 6/10.

What the heck?!! How’d Daphne appear out of nowhere? A

I like that Nate and Jenny are friends

A year later, this has turned into a lot more.
