Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for October 19, 2021

Root and twig?

How about Marty handing out cheez doodles on Halloween?

Lol that sounds like the sort of place that parents would buy floral related stuff that make the front yard look “better”

its always interesting to see how much nate’s dad hates giving out candy on Halloween, yet can never stick to a diet.

(plus he tries to steal nate’s Halloween candy in a few comics)

It seems Marty has resorted to giving kids leaves and sticks as treats.

Maybe he could give them leaf bugs and stick bugs for the “trick” part of “trick or treat”!

a little bit of Marty’s hand is miscolored in EVERY panel

Hi guys I have not been able to get on gocomics Cause I have a lot of school but it is fall break for me now so any way have a good one and hates dad is very hypocritical cause he tries to make nate eat healthy but he does not any way bye

ofc it always ends this way

For treats he’s been searching, Marty Wright he’s never learning…

Is this the first comic which we actually see Nate in the car?

Also, there are random grey spots on Dad’s hands.

I’ve heard of banana chips but not plantain chips. Just a little side note, my Jamaican mom makes fried plantains almost all the time and they taste amazing

Oh no not again, every year!

“Tree, Root and Twig”. That name would be more appropriate for a plant nursery..

What’s he giving out this year, Celery sticks?!?!

Unless they include sugarcane, no.

What is happening to Marty’s hand in panel two?

Plantain chips are really good

Hey, Banana chips are good! (another word for plantain)

Poll: Do you like regular books, ebooks, or audiobooks better

That sounds like a place to buy trees like Christmas trees

Shucks, you probably can buy ginseng chews in there….maybe this has possibilities…….

nate better turn this around

Mmm…plantain chips….(try the sweet chili variety)

I’ve shopped at “Tree Root & Twig” before; the figs were good but that’s not Halloween candy material.

Evil. Just evil.

First time we see Nate in a car

That explains a lot.

Hey, plantain chips aren’t too bad.

Lincoln, quick, I’m losing my appetite.

big OOF

I am now Spooky section teddy! (Not that spooky with an Indiana Jones costume)

I thought Nate was too short to sit in the front…

Plantain chips are good!

you know what plantain chips are actually really good

Why must Marty never listen to Nate? You’re never supposed to hand out healthy treats on Halloween!

Fun fact: an avocado is a fruit O-O

There are health nuts… and then there’s just plain nuts. This is nuts.

Marty has the exact same face across three panels.

5/10 cause not really that funny and now im desprate for the next comics so SOMBODY GET ME A COMIC TO THE FUTURE

And the kids will surly go crazy for the Carob coated rice cakes with almond-milk centers…

Is tree root and twig an actual store name?

Quick grab the keys and drive to the grocery store!

He just might get killed if he hands them out.

I would have TPed a house that served ‘treats’ like that. Or at least seriously considered doing so!

Businesses are usually better at naming their place. Like an organic store might call itself by a person’s name like Chamberlains or Trader Joe’s, or something that seems innocuous but still clear about what it is about like Whole Foods or Natural Grocers. Now there is a Sprouts which is as close I have ever seen to “Tree Root and Twig”

hi

i feel bad for evryone in nates neighborhood…

Woah, a car angle! I don’t remember ever seeing that!

Nate’s dad should team up with Andy Fox from over at FoxTrot both parents are nuts (pun intended).

Probably doesn’t go here for his meals, I would say.

if life was great, Nate would be selfless, Gina wouldn’t be obnoxious, and Nate’s dad would give out candy.

Imagine clicking random and it takes you back to the same comic strip XD

hi im new to the big nate fandom

First time we see Marty’s car?

It’s ironic, because, nates dad is a health nut, yet he always likes eating all of Nates Halloween candy.

im back even tho none of u know meh i was here when Quincy was POPULAR and NOT BANNED

Why does Nates dad get healthy food for Halloween when he loves sweets and candy?

hmmmmm

There’s promise

OH YEAH, BRO! I LOVE THOSE PLANTAINS CHIPS!

Hi. This is a bot for ChiefChaos speaking. He is currently inactive. Bye.

happy birthday to ME I’m not a hundred and THREE I’m not still PRESCHOOL no, no, no thats COOL

My mommy is not at WORK she fired a JERK she hired a MONKEY which ate my HOMEWORK

Now its head is OFF because a dog bit it OFF and now here it LIES In the wasteland with FLIES

You should always know that you should go to the grocery store to get healthy treats, not some random trying-to-knock-you-off store.

this year at my school soothing happened some girl who used to go to my school then left came back this year and when we where in second grade went to her house and we were playing hide and seek and i hid in the shower then she walks into the bathroom and goes to the bathroom and i was still in the shower and i thought she finished so i tried to scare her but she was still going she left after that year and came bake this year and when i saw that she was coming back i was like oh no.

9/10 the kid might be having a rough time

Tree root and twig lol

You cannot be serious
