Marcus (right) when Nate was bragging about his "trendsetting" sombrero.
Marcus Goode is a very "popular" person at P.S. 38 and minor antagonist in Big Nate. He has a posse that Nate was once in. Before that, Nate had always tried to be as "popular" as Marcus. When Nate left the posse to hang out with Teddy and Francis again, Marcus beat him up with a massive punch in the face. People seem to loathe him due to his bullying behavior behind his "cool" side. He is called one of the biggest bullies as of now. He has been described by Nate as the trendsetter of P.S. 38. Marcus is also a rival of Nate and Chad.
