Page 20 already? Dang, this is like, if this was a comic book series, you would only be two pages from end of the first issue. Granted you world normally read it all in one sitting fairly quickly, but hey, with a web comic with you get way more suspense and build up than a book, and it’s free!
The closest experience I have to this page is when I worked at King’s Table Buffet as a dish washer and there was this mess of trash and old boxes out by the dumpsters I had to tidy up. As I was cleaning, I broke down a box that had a large amount of thoroughly rotted chicken blood and fat hidden in it… oh yeah and also maggots. It all exploded all over me, and I dry heaved like a mofo. That was definitely a moment where I was not digging the minimum wage job. I smelled bad chicken so often at that job. Not that they served it bad, but that when it went bad, it was my job to deal with it, and it is just the worse smell… I hardly ever ate chicken when I worked there, even outside the restaurant. I love chicken.
Well I am just finishing up inking page 41 tonight. I’m going to do a couple more, then I have to put Bearmageddonback on the shelf for a bit and work on the next Axe Cop Dark Horse miniseries. This won’t effect you though, it will continue to post two pages a week as Noah and his new color-slaves Johnathan and Matthew start their new job as flatters. Also, a guy named Mike has jumped on board to help me with editing the web site, so thanks to Team Bearmo! Somewhere along the way as I am working on the next Axe Cop book I will take some time to get more Bearmageddon pages done. It should all run very smoothly… of course my foreseeable future has about 270 pages of comics to draw, but hey I can do that. Why not.
Well, speaking of all that, I better get back to work. I submitted a design for an Octo Bear shirt that will be ready for Christmas for sure. I don’t know when exactly it will post but when it does I will of course let you all know. Thanks to everyone who has bought a poster so far!

Oh lord I wonder what he slipped in. It doesn’t seem to be anything good.
Noah actually colored the stuff he is slipping in a purple color and I wanted it too look like something much more vile, so I changed it to the color of rotten mayo.
IT WAS BEARS!!! BEARS MADE THE MESS!!! AHAHAHAHA! BEARS!
Oh god, every page I read of Bearmageddon I get more excited. I was looking in the Characters section earlier and I found it so awesome. The fact that the supporting characters have about as much(or more)written about them as the lead roles is just straight up boss.
heh. Thanks, yeah I have fun writing those.
Yeah, my family has a meat processing plant. Its shocking what you can get used to. (ie, What smell?) Still hate maggots though, and rotten poultry is worse than pork or beef, I think.
Well drawn and colored intestines, by the way.
Well, that is a whole lot worse than returns or shagging shopping carts.
I know I’m going to regret knowing the source of those guts. I really, really do.
I came here as an Axe Cop fan, now I visit Axe Cop as a Bearmagedon fan xD
nice! 🙂
I feel like those goggles are vitally nessecary in this situation.
I feel like a hazmat suit is vitally necessary in this situation
shut up
And here I thought the guy just wore those because he thought they “look cool”.
“…of course my foreseeable future has about 270 pages of comics to draw, but hey I can do that. Why not…”
And THIS is why you are great..
haha I appreciate it. We’ll see how long it takes me.
Oh man, those disgusted faces in Panel 2 are great.
Thanks. When I draw facial expressions I tend to involuntarily make the face I am drawing. I probably looked pretty ridiculous on this one.
I actually do that too! I always used to catch myself doing it back in school then look around to make sure noone was looking at me. Har har
Waste Management? Are they paying you to plug them?
My first job was at a fish fry. I never really had to deal with bad smells at work. The fish was cleaned downstairs and even that wasn’t terrible (aside from the can-o-worms which I never looked at). But man, do your clothes reek after a bit, and half of the guys didn’t do laundry. We would get just two t-shirts, and some guys were working 80+ hour weeks in those same two shirts without washing them. I can only imagine that the smell is similar.
Yeah we worked with fish too at this place… lots of fish juice got on me and I wreaked of it at the end of the night. Also during closing we had to get this trap out of the drain in the floor and clean it out and it was just full of all the putrid nastiness that had gone into it during the day. It spilled on me once and I literally started vomiting into the sink.
i imagine that a fish fry would smell good no? i enjoy the smell of fried fish…
I wonder whose guts those were?
Werewolves on meth sound awesome.
Werewolves on Meth is the name of my new 80’s metal/rap core band.
An octobear shirt you say? Awesome!
yeah!!
MAKE IT SO!
I bet it would be more fun to clean up that mess than to draw it.
I appreciate that, because it truly was a bitch to draw. I actually laid it out in sketchup first because there was no way I was going to figure out all the perspective on those shopping carts.
I have a feeling that beard is never going to get shaved. Looking forward to 270 pages of facial hair growth.
This is putrid!
What the hell is this?
Are those guts?
Aren’t Haiku supposed to be 5-7-5?
a raccoon could have done it I know from experience that they are very, very evil. 1 month of rabies shots.
I’m surprised that this comic doesn’t have a page in TVTropes.com. I would like to know the tropes that are involved in this comic.
TVtropes should suffer from a very painfull death, at the hands of a few angry artists.
Then again.. That’s just my opnion.
Also: Guess i’m gonna order that octobear-shirt as well. It’ll go nicely along with my beloved Wexter t-shirt.
Isn’t “[I] don’t get paid nearly enough to [do this]” the last thing you should say in a horror story? 😛
Nah the last think you should say in a horror story is “aaaaahgh…” followed by some sort of death rattle.
“I know the term “grunge” dates me back a bit but it dates Ken also so it’s perfect” I now have to check every age for these hidden commentarys.
give me liberty or give me a bear with a friggin gun on his back!
im pretty sure thats the law
Death, bear with a friggin gun on his back–yeah, those are pretty much equivalent. Patrick Henry would have said that if he had thought of it, I’m sure.
I could sure use a pair of goggles at my job. One guy I work with got hepatitis from scrubbing a bathroom. When the floordrain is acting like Uni-Baby’s tank and shooting poop everywhere you don’t want to be the one they call. (When it happens monthly you realize it’s time to reevaluate your life.) I actually used the phrase, “this has to be above my pay-grade.”
