Create your own comix with art from BIG NATE! Big Nate, aka 6th grader Nate Wright, is a self-described genius, hilarious “king of detention” and cartoonist extraordinaire. Now just like Nate, YOU can create your own comix, using Lincoln Peirce’s art from the bestselling Big Nate book series.

With favorite characters, cool backgrounds from Nate’s world, and fun props and sound effects, kids (and adults!) will enjoy designing their very own Nate-inspired comic strips. Three different modes of play are available, for users of all levels. The number of different comix you can make is infinite, so the possibilities are endless. As Nate says, your comix will “surpass all others”!

FEATURES:
· Nate’s best friends (and rivals) are included—his buddies Francis and Teddy, rival Gina, crush Jenny, his neighbor’s dog Spitsy, and even his Social Studies teacher, Mrs. Godfrey, aka “Godzilla!”
· Backgrounds include the P.S. 38 school gym, lockers, library, Nate’s bedroom, the neighborhood, and even Mrs. Godfrey’s classroom—everywhere that Nate goes.
· Three ways to create comix:
Story Starter—Begin with a few finished frames and then fill in the rest!
Fill in the Blanks—Fill in the speech bubbles on an already designed comic.
Start from Scratch—Create a comic from scratch, and design it however you like!
· Share your comix with a friend, or save them to a gallery.
· Check out five original app comix created by Lincoln Peirce himself.

Pros and cons of Big Nate: Comix By U! app for iPhone and iPad

Big Nate: Comix By U! app good for

Theres been a weird saving glitch lately... When I save my comic, it either doesnt save or it changes the picture or name of the comic! Not very happy bout it! Plz fix!
It is a very good game but sometimes crashes they should fix that
It crashes every time you hit done. Fix this! I wouldve rated it 5 if it didnt crash. Please fix!
I LOVE BIG NATE!! I HAVE ALL THE SERIES OF THE BOOKS AND I LOVE IT!! THANK YOU LINCOLN PIERCE FOR MAKING THIS APP!! REALLY AWESOME!! I LOVE BIG NATE BECAUSE NATE HAS REALLY GOOD COMEBACKS AND HE HAS GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR!!! I WILL RECOMMEND THIS TO EVERYONE!!
This is an awesome app but could you please add a feature where you can create a long story and please add more backgrounds, characters and different actions for each character. Thanks

Some bad moments

Overall a fun app. However, since this is the first version you expect some bugs. If you try to go back to show or view anything you have saved to your gallery, forget it. The app drops you back to your main screen. I hope this gets worked out soon otherwise what use is it to save any of your comic strips.
One of the first apps that really fosters creativity for kids. My 10 year old grandson got hooked on creating comics. I had never seen him so excited by the process of creating and writing humor for himself. What a wonderful gift!!! THANK YOU.
It keeps on shutting down over and over again. I have tried everything but theres no use. Give an update to fix that prob And I will give it 5 stars.
BUGS BUGS I down loaded this app 7 times an it always kicks you out as soon as you try to open it!!! I had an iPhone since the first iPhone an this is the worst app I ever payed for!! I want my money back!! STAY AWAY FROM THIS ONE!!!!
I dont get it. It keeps on coming off and my gallary deletes my comics
I downloaded the update of this app--it took less than a minute to update, and was totally worth it! Its a fun way to engage with one of the funniest book series around, and my kids love it. Not only do they love it, but I do, too...I could spend all day creating my own Big Nate comix! Definitely recommend this app.
