Missed this, but nonetheless very cool. Big Nate creator Lincoln Peirce was on the Today show as the Guinness Book of World Records certified that a panel of Big Nate cartoons drawn by schoolchildren from around the country broke the world record as the largest cartoon strip by a team. The previous record was 3,320 feet, 2 inches set by French students. Lincoln’s panels was 3,920 feet.
Here’s the clip from the Today show.

I think it’s the world’s longest comic strip…I think Mark Pett still holds the world record for the world’s largest comic strip (LUCKY COW)

It’s “BIG Nate,” not “LONG Nate.”
Fantastic strip and terrific books by the wonderful Lincoln Peirce. Congratulations on breaking the world record. BIG NATE is one of a kind greatness!
