This comic is all about manliness. It is all about beards, bear fighting, guns, heroism… and it is also about counterfeit manliness. The bears act as a catalyst to divide the counterfeit manliness from the true manliness. That is all I will say for now because, well, we are only 6 pages in.
I appreciate everyone who has shared Bearmageddon with their friends. Also, thanks to Atomic Moo for doing this short write up on Bearmageddon.
Well, have a good weekend. Thanks for reading Bearmageddon. Each page draws us nearer to the impending attack. See you Wednesday!

I hope ken gets eaten first.
I’m betting you made it a point to have a bear (or bearomorph) in every panel, and so far ive not been wrong… I’ve got my gimlet eyes on you!
I didn’t think about it, but now I will!
It’s still going well, this page was uneventful but the artwork is still good. But what in the world is wow-mart like? O.o on the outside it’s like wal-mart but what kind of wal-mart ha taxidermy?
Years back, Wal-mart used to have taxidermy in the sporting section in their stores in the Deep South – right above the ammo counter. Usually small stuff like deer heads and bobcats.
Yeah maybe they don’t do it now but I have seen taxidermy in the sporting goods section of stores like WaL Mart and Bi Mart.
erh… page, i mean *smacks forehead with bearclaw*
Yeah! A web-comic about manliness, bearliness, and beardiness.
Looks great so far. Sounds like you’re brewing some deeper themes here…
LIKE.
I hope someone’s going to become so manly they just run up to the bears and punch them in the face.
But this whole being a real man vs playing at being a man thing will likely be much deeper. I’m here for the ride regardless, but I’m still desperately hoping for punching.
I think you’ll be happy. We haven’t introduced my favorite character yet.
I love this. Thank you for being such a cool dude and having the energy to regularly update such sick stuff for two comics!!
Thanks for saying thanks! Seriously, it feels good to get a thanks for pumping out material like this. I remember talking to Scott Kurtz of PVP about how very rare anyone says thanks when you are cranking out free material every day. So I really appreciate it.
This is excelent! keep up the good work!
Be prepared for a Ken Facebook fan page with 300 photos of mustaches.
What sort of music does Joel listen to?
I am guessing Slip Knot, old school Pantera, stuff like that.
I’m about to blow your mind: for some reason, I can only hear the voice of the manager as Tom Kenny.
curse you, now I can’t stop hearing it.
The wait between Friday and Wednesday is always the longest…
:C
This one spoke to me, I just got chewed out yesterday for having a beard at work. I retorted that Abe Lincoln had a beard, whats more honest and trustworthy than Abe Lincoln?
That happened to me when I worked at a Pizza place. The boss had a mustache like Ken’s.
You and Steve Meyers have my boss pegged PERFECTLY. Amazing.
Wow, I was already excited for this web-comic. Now I’m even more interested. True manliness is a subject that is left untouched far too often. I’m especially intrigued since you seem to be exploring that issue without having a damsel in distress around.
well you gotta have the girl.
@Peace=Nine: Yup, I too foresmell a (well-deserved) bear encounter in Mr. Kens future!!
Don’t knock a good mustache/beard comb. I bought my friend one in Portland. It was whittled out of wood and was very hipster-ish, but it’s still a nice thing to have.
So this might be a couple days late, but maybe the answer will be unveiled at this aptly named festival.

man the amateur hipster feminine art and design of that site do not deserve that bad ass manly name. That gorilla and bear aren’t even thinking about fighting!! They’ll probably enter an experimental film competition against each other at best.
And where on EARTH did you find that page? I wouldn’t even admit to have found it if I were you…
Is it wrong of me to immediately hope that Ken gets eaten by one of the bears after having just been introduced to him? I do like the “Take off the goggles, this isn’t Splash Mountain.” line though.
I also assume Ken is a drummer in a White Snake type of metal band that mainly plays at relatives wedding receptions judging from his age and hairstyle.
Ken = fake man.
Gogs = fake man.
Besser = Chuck Norris in disguise.
all good observations.
damn right, fight the power!
When did mr t sign for arsenal ? Webber will have to ring the rest of the Ateam now their falling to pieces and players running for exit
Am I the only one who thinks Ken looks eerily similar to Bruce Campbell? With a mustache of course.
Idea for possible fanart / site promotion: Ask for Ken ‘stach fanart. Then post it on a Facebook account specifically made for Ken. Possibly make the “winner” or or your current favorite the profile pic. Also, it goes without saying there would be a link to this site somewhere in there.
Since everyone seems to like using bear Gravatars, I decided to change mine too.
Are we going to see a kangabear?
…and it doesn’t seem to be working. Silly Gravatar.
hey! where did the new panel went? i had two new pages in rss, and bam! 404 error.
yeah sorry, a couple mess ups trying to post for tomorrow. It will be up at 9am pacific time Wednesday morning.
it is up! thanks! 🙂
I appreciate the brake-less fixie with the cyclocross tires. Truly hip.
Aaaaarrrghh! Manliness is awesome. I love being manly. You don’t have to be a man to have manly values (courage, toughness, power, hilarious burping, etc). And you can be womanly while being manly. But there aren’t any girls in this comic, are there? Or are there, and they’re the love interests?
Shave??? Is he kidding. Real men don’t shave!!!
I only shave because my wife says so…
Am I the only one who imagines Ken sounding like Rooney (the principle) from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off?
