Why these Big Nate comics are boring.

GarfieldMN here.

If you follow me on GC, you would know I say “BORING” a LOT. (That's an understatement)

Don’t believe me? Check for yourself right over here.

Ok, topic 1:

Kids talking
These last few arcs have been simply about kids speaking to one another. They mainly speak about generic topics: school, talking about “OOOOH I NO WHO HAS A CRUSH ON U”, Mr. Rosa (which was decent), Nate slamming on Gina, IDK. It’s just mainly been about kids having bland conversations.

No “plot” in story arcs
One of my favorite songs is “Never Ending Story” based on the movie.

BUT, where’s the interesting story arc? Where are the magnificent ideas from the fans? Why are these story arcs so boring? Each week (on Sunday and if it’s not a 2+ week arc), I get my hopes up for an interesting arc, but unfortunately, my wish doesn’t come true.

The comment section!
Every other comment section has mature readers making mature, general comments about the comic they are reading, not a POLL. Almost every day, it’s a POLL that gets featured comment. Not only that, but the polls also aren’t original. They’re the same polls over and over again. Ugh!

A comparison
These newer strips actually could be compared to older ones, and guess which of them is better...

No humor
Newer strips don't tend to be very funny at all. (Except the slob off arc)

It’s boring
As I said, the new strips are BORING!!

Wow, now I am speaking like Squidward.

Predictable Endings
Endings are bland and predictable at times. Like the recent arc about Nate wanting to leave Social Studies, but yes, he comes back, what a spoiler.
