Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for January 18, 2024

I’m betting that Mrs. Godfrey still does break hearts.

I wonder what Nate would say

Ouch!

Remember when I said she had this coming… Yeah very different when Godfrey’s in the picture. Also, that demon spawn of a teacher being the most popular girl in school makes a lot more sense than it should.

This feels like a typical “Nate Mopes Around for Suffering Romantic Rejection” but with Gina taking his place.

She was probably the ONLY girl in school.

A very unique strip! I don’t think Gins has EVER been angry at Godfrey! Upset she was disappointed, yes, but angry? Plus the popular girl joke was really funny!

9\10, strong one!

That’s a scary thought

You always look up to Mrs. Godfrey.

I’m liking this new era of Big Nate. Nate gets a great girlfriend and mans up to becoming a good boyfriend. Kim and Chad are an item breaking the miserable cycle of Kim harassing Nate and now potential Gina character development?

FINALLY! Keep it going Mr. Peirce, but here’s to hoping he don’t screw this up like he usually does in past arcs…

we need a flashback

The heartthrob Mrs Godfrey!

Honestly, Gina should be unhappy more often. People are learning all sorts of things in Big Nate this year! Kim’s stopped being after a boy who has told her no more often than I can count, Nate’s learning how to be less weird to girls he’s with (sort of)… Maybe Gina can learn how to be a better person!

Doubt.

She probably STILL break hearts. With her hands.

Ayoooo the third panel thooo

So Gina runs into the waiting arms of Chester…

Wow, Ms. Godfrey and Gina finally not getting along.

Gina learns a cruel life lesson.

That seems like the biggest lie I’ve ever heard from Mrs.Godoffrey.

Why did she even look to her for compassion? Doesn’t she have geeky friends?

Wait… Gina actually has character outside of being the annoying teacher’s pet? Impressive, most impressive.

Wasn’t expecting that jeez Mrs Godfrey must hate everyone Nate is right

….“but thanks for the warning” he continues “ya never know when your arch-enemy will throw you a curve like a ’lil slice ’o compassion, and the severe shock will level you with a heart attack”……….

Wow, that was haaarrssssh

I never thought Mrs. Godfrey will say she was the most popular girl in school

Ugh-I feel so bad for Gina :(

8/10

lies. lies i tell you

Yo, What happened to Shelly and Teddy? Do they go to the same school? Or will it end up like Gina and Chad?

Well if true, she hasn’t aged well.

Gina you soooooo dramatic, acting like people can have actual, deep heartbreak before they’re even old enough to hold a job

8/10, Mrs. Godfrey just continued breaking hearts! Maybe Gina can console in Daphne, and she can explain how she dealt with it!

Somehow I don’t buy that she was the most popular girl in school.

Hmm I feel like its about TIME for gina to get annoyed with godfrey 8/10 still feel bad for gina

Poll: Which two teachers would make the BEST couple and which would make the WORST

Mrs. Godfrey being one of the popular girls in school isn’t something I expected, but it also weirdly makes sense.

“Oh, how I hate her.”

So, that’s how Mrs. Godfrey developed her taste for making other peoples miserable!? On the other hand, it’s nice for once to see Gina admit that Mrs. Godfrey isn’t the amazing person she always said she is.

let’s get a snow day arc or something (totally not because we marylanders are about to have 3 snow days in a week)

Maybe you should have asked her how things were going lately.

Now she brakes their legs……

i feel like ms godfrey got less nicer nowadays before she would sometimes smile and act normal and now she just looks like she always feels good about herself

Wow! Was not expecting this! Gina loves Godfrey most of the time, but not today I guess! Its very hard to believe Godfery was the most poplar girl in school, but, than again thats what makes the joke funny!

I would feel sorry for Gina but she has been such a b***h to Nate for so long, this feels like justice.

Guys, today’s a devastating day for me because…my Grandad’s passed away in his sleep today, at 11:15am. My mum was with him during his final days. I got home from school with my sister informing me about it. Also, my brother came in a taxi to the flat. (Where my grandad lived) I’m gonna be mourning for my Grandad for a week so, I won’t be commenting on Big Nate for a week, especially Andy Capp, Baby Blues & Garfield.

R.I.P

Grandad

Funny seeing Gina get annoyed at Godfrey, 7/10

nate knows the drill

Sure…

Gravitational pull doesn’t count
