Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for June 05, 2011
Transcript:
Ellen says, "What's that, Dad?" Marty says, "A blood-pressure monitor!" Marty says, "High blood pressure runs in out family, so I figured I'd start keeping an eye on mine!" Ellen says, "How does it work?" Marty says, "It's batter-powered! I just hit this button..." Marty says, "...and the cuff automatically inflated and deflates!" Ellen says, "The numbers on the screen are going down." Marty says, "Yup! That means it's working! It'll give me the final reading in a few seconds!" Nate, "Gasp! Gasp! Gasp! Wheeew!" RRINNG! Nate says, "Don't answer that!" Nate says, "Uh... I mean... I'll get it." Ellen says, "The numbers are going back up."

I can see the whole thing too. I prefered comics.com because I could get all my favorites on one page like reading them in a paper, haven’t found a way to do that here yet.

Wait, Nate still has a sister? ;) Seems like a long time since she’s been seen.

I haven’t seen Ellen in a while, I nearly forgot she was still in the strip. Question to long time fans: whatever happened to Nate & Ellen’s mother?

Ellen theme song – She’s always annoying to Nate. She’s even got a boyfriend. And she loves cats and figure skating. she’s Ellen

Looks like this is the first time we see Ellen wearing a blouse (not counting her fast-food work uniform) without the little protruding chest bumps. Now she has more normal-looking curves.

Nobody else will comment about this, so I will: What did Nate do? I wanna know? Did he run from school? And I love the psycho look from all 3 of them in the second last panel!
