Woo! Thanks to everyone who has jumped on board to support Bearmageddon on Patreon! I have already reached two reward goals, so I have released full PDFs of two of my sketchbooks to anyone who pledges $1 or more! So, right now, if you pledge a dollar, you get two out of print sketchbooks thrown in, containing some of my all time favorite material.
Some people were concerned that if they pledged, they did not want to get stuck in a commitment to give more than they could afford if I suddenly put out a ton of work. First, you can cap your pledge to a monthly limit. But, as things are, I am only posting once a week, if that right now. If this Patreon thing really takes off, I may bump it up, but Kailey would need to be able to keep up as well. So, if you were pledging a dollar per page, you would get charged $4/month max. Included in that is the free books I release when I hit goals, and there is also process blog posts for patrons only showing behind the scenes/process stuff. Also, people who pledge get first in line for answers to questions and advice should you request it.
I also wanted to mention that I have done a little blogging lately over at my Tumblr page. I have written a few posts about kids, creativity and violence.
Apologies for the late post, but we had a mix-up with Drop Box again and between our schedules I was not able to post it until late tonight. This will be my official, first Patreon post. Thanks so much for being a reader of Bearmageddon!

Awww Goggs! “Guys, please don’t die” 🙂
And the whole place, Joel’s childhood home, will go up in flames. And at the scene of the fire, a young cop would discover Killdeer’s perfect axe, and become AXE COP!
Then he would chop off one of the bear’s heads, and get covered in bear blood, and become BEAR COP!
You win.
Shit’s about to get real.
Disbelief totally suspended. I’m thinking this is an alternate universe where balloons are made up of a different gas resistant polymer. It would totally work.
I like it. I wondered the same thing… perhaps in this universe, balloons are made from…wait for it… bear bladders. Motive?
Ooooh quite possibly! That would definitely piss me off if I were a bear though. HOW DAREST THOU MAKE CHILDREN’S TOYS FROM THE ORGANS OF MY PEOPLE!! RAAARRRRRR
Balloons cant take gasoline? What happens, does it just eat through?
Yep, the gasoline will basically melt them.
I know something now. :3
Knowledge is power, and can save you from painful gasoline burns!!
A coworker found out the hard way when she was 16 and the dude at the gas station said you could carry gasoline in a milk jug. It ate through and got all over her on the car ride. It was not a fun night.
On a tangentially related topic, I really hope Ethan and the guy behind this (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1330754003/bear-simulator) end up collaborating. Next up: Lord of Beasts?
me and a friend have been talking about creating a LoB game.
perhaps ill send a GDD to Ethan
would condoms work in place of the balloons?
This is yet another interesting page Mr. Nicolle. It is exciting to think that the next page will tell whether the group makes it out of Joel’s house alive or not. I am really looking forward to the next page, since it will finally relieve the mounting expectation and mystery that has been building for weeks. I am curious to see if Dickinson’s plan will work out flawlessly as usual, or if the bears are learning his style of attack. Also, what is Gogs going to do during all of this? If things go south, it would be awful for him to be forced to sit and watch all of his friends be dismembered. I am anxiously awaiting this weeks page, keep up the good work Mr. Nicolle.
Great stuff! Oh, spotted a Panel 6 typo: “THE THE END OF A RAKE”
