How to make a 2019 Big Nate arc!

Have you ever wanted to make a Big Nate arc? Well, I’m ComicRater, and I have the steps for you, if you want to make a 2019 Big Nate arc! Let’s begin!

Step 1: The Character Focus
Although Big Nate arcs are always about Nate, they usually have a side character that helps or gets focus. We They can either play a big part in the story, or just stare at the screen with a cringe smug on their face. You can choose from the following overused 2019 characters: And more. Because, who needs actual interesting characters who could have great character development!
 * 1) Chad
 * 2) Dee Dee
 * 3) Gina
 * 4) School Picture Guy

Step 2: The Story Arc
Now that you have your characters, you can have a story arc. These can include the following, and NO MORE.


 * 1) A School Arc
 * 2) A Home Arc
 * 3) A Sports Arc
 * 4) Random Outside Locations with no name

Of course, there can be variations, like Nate playing sports at home. But that’s too interesting.

Step 3: The “Interesting” Add Ons
Of course, it can’t be just that. You have to have more! Some include,
 * Nate getting insulted or beaten
 * Chad saying 1800s words like “Golly” and “Fellers”
 * Nate freaking out over the smallest thing and making this face:5623C381-EC6C-4A2C-880B-FF65EF2E4542.jpeg
 * Dee Dee being weird, and Nate mentioning 1,000,000 times that she’s in the drama club
 * Characters constantly looking at the screen with an unamused  or smug face
 * Characters making pop culture and in real life references the kids shouldn’t know, or not understand
 * Nate talking about his smouldering sex appeal

There are more, but those are the most popular ones.

Step 4: The Length
Now that you’ve got an arc, you need to get a length. These can go from 1 week to 2 months. For example, if Mrs Godfrey is talking to Gina on how she is in trouble, you probably think “Hey, that could be 2 or 3 days.” But, in new Big Nate, arcs have to be stretched thin. So, just make the arc longer than it should be! For example, make Mrs Godfrey y’all to Gina for a week about how she is in trouble. There! You’ve got it!

Step 5: Ending the Arc
You obviously have to end the arc in some way. There are other ways, but here is the most popular one.
 * 1) End the story with a beautiful, nice conclusion, which has the characters like able, developed, and impacts the strip in a positive way.

Hah, you thought. Here are the actual ways for ending arcs!!!
 * 1) Nate getting insult or beaten in some way
 * 2) A story element that made the entire arc completely utterly pointless
 * 3) A joke at the end, with the characters (besides the speaker) looking at the camera with an unamused or smug face
 * 4) A stupid story element that shows that the arc is going to be another week
 * 5) Making an IRL reference that most of the viewers don’t get/won’t laugh at.

That’s basically it.

Conclusion
Congrats! You’ve created a 2019 Big Nate arc in SECONDS. Now, wait for the negative reviews to roll in. Thanks for reading!
