Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for July 03, 2023

Another Daphne arc! I’m winning

I thought that was a guy for a second….anyway we get a Nate and Daphne beach week cool cool

A good A- to start off the week

Can’t mention something that doesn’t exist ☠︎︎

We’re finally going to meet Daphne’s parents!

Nate’s smirk looks a bit weird in panel 4

Oh wow, didn’t think we’d get another weep, I was just hoping! Yay!! And dang, outside of an offscreen appearance by Kelly’s dad, we have NEVER seen Nate meet one of his girlfriend’s parents! Another change to the norm! Plus, daww, if the face in panel 2 means something, Daphne’s been gushing! And Nate’s eagerness, even if a little vain, is cute too!! These two are too sweet!!!

8\10, a typical Big Nate joke but I liked the execution! Is this a date arc or a meet the parents arc, tho? Curious!

I’m excited for this one

The good things she said:

Daphne (lovestruck throughout): he can be so funny and sweet and charming and smart!

Daphne’s mom: wonderful!

Daphne: and so dumb!

Daphne’s mom: …and that’s… endearing?

Daphne (sighs romantically)

Daphne’s mom: can’t relate

Daphne’s dad: honey, I typed myself to the wall again!

this oughta be good

Just what a parent wants to hear …..

Seems like a nice comic, and nice that Daphne is in another nice beach arc. That seems really romantic

Dang, Peirce, this arc seems to be great. I think Nate will mess up though. XD. Or maybe Teddy and Francis will be there and humiliate Nate.

9/10, good arc idea!

Okay, this looks like it’ll be nice…

Strip rating: 8/10 I hope this one won’t be lame like the last one.

….good comeback by Daph’s….mom, I reckon this is…….actually there probably wasn’t a WHOLE lot of stuff she’d heard from Daph about Nate……but she’s likely heard “just about enough” for starters, and wanted to politely cut Nae off at the pass……..

…hmmm: A beach towel! So this soon, he wants to see her in a bathing suit! Oh, right….it’s SUMMER!

Beach bod, or dad bod?

ah, yes.

Looks like an upcoming beach or pool day, going by Nate’s towel. I hope this will be fun.

She might have skipped that one……

10/10 XDXDXDXDXDLOLOLOLXDXDX

The first, unforgettable meeting between Nate and his girlfriend’s mother. She seems an interesting character. Bare feet and towel. Will Nate and Daphne go to the pool? How fun!

Nothing memorable, obviously.

THEY DELETED MY FRICKING POST AGAIN >:l

Today I threw up bc I ate 2 takis

Apparently, Daphne has told her mom so much about Nate that her mom can’t even keep track.

HOLY FRICK They’re going to the beach, something embarrassing might happen to nate
