Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for December 31, 2024

Today’s the last day of 2024. I’m going to be honest, 2023 was still better than this year

New year in one day.

I’d rather play Mario Party.

If Miranda really does do what she’s threatening to do, Nate wouldn’t want to be the top hat ever again

This is it. The last day of 2024. What was your favorite arc of the year? Mine’s the time when Nate got Daphne the new fancy bowl because she wanted it.

Miranda really needs some discipline

Brutal.

2024 sucked.

7\10, the final panel is kinda funny I guess.

Halloween

Marge’s Cookies

Class Election

Marty Throws the Opening Pitch

2024 was like 2023, a better year than the last few, still riddled with boring arcs, but an uptick in story and variety, especially thanks to Daphne. Hopefully 2025 can continue this trend!

2024 or 2023

I think that Miranda’s gonna win.

Bad move, teddy

Happy New Year’s Eve guys :)

They’re all underestimating her, I’ll bet she’s going to play better than all of them

I thought youngest player always goes first?

Horrid little brat.

Happy New Year everyone.

The last arc of 2024…

On this date in 1935 The Monopoly game was patented by Charles Darrow.

…better yet, just LET Miranda go first………

Happy New Year commenters! I hope these Big Nate arcs get better and better.

I think an arc where Marty, Ellen, and Nate go to Disney world would be good. We keep getting the same arcs over and over.

Fingers crossed for GoComics to redevelop a whole new comments section for 2025.

New Year’s Eve!

New year pain with Miranda

Last day of 2024

Let the games begin!

miranda is going ultra savage

I would not let her get park place, or the railroads, or you’re going to find that top hat someplace else.

Happy New Year’s Eve everyone

Happy New Years Eve!

Happy New Year Everybody.

Miranda is definitely related to Kim.
