Alright, here is another page. It’s been a rough week at Bearmageddon studios, but we’ve managed to only be 15-30 minutes late with each page posting this week. Sorry for last page’s blog, I was literally coming out of a sick coma just to post that page then pass out, I didn’t realize it was such a whine fest.
I leave you with this page as we head into Christmas. Bearmageddon studios will be closed this week for Christmas cheer and New Year celebrating. We’ll pick things back up in the new year. Thanks to every one who has made Bearmageddon a success, including Noah, Matt and Johnathan the color team and Mike the web master. Also, all you readers and especially those who have taken time to share this comic with your friends. I look forward to what happens with Bearmageddon in the new year, it’s only just getting started.
So merry Christmas, happy New Year and all that jazz… we’ll see you back here in 2012!
Ethan
This comic is so unpredictable! How are they going to get away from four bears! I don’t know! Its such a great cliffhanger!
I can’t believe we’re 41 pages in already. It’s just fantastic. Last page I actually felt as into it if I were watching a movie or something, it was intense.
Ethan are you going to be coming to the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo again this new year? I would love a chance to buy an Octobear shirt!
Gogs just went shimmied around to the other side.
Yep, I mapped out their locations. That is totally feasible. Notice you can’t see the dead hippie anymore either. Because he’s on the other side of the tree!
Agreed. Now somebody needs to get a chainsaw, and quick!
Probably not. They aren’t having me as a guest this year and it is a pretty expensive trip for me to make out of pocket. Plus I don’t usually sell shirts at my table, you’d have to buy that from the online store.
YES! FIRST! i was regularly refreshing the page in anticipation! this is getting so good, keep up the good work Ethan, and try not to kill Joel or Gogs please
ok maybe not first, dang it
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Where’s a sacrificial hipster when you need one?
Who’s the guy in the lower right corner, and why does he look like he’s up higher than the others?
Damn, I’ll be twenty before I see bearmageddon again.
Happy Birthday!
Thanks~
Alright! Now there might be enough bears to get everyone unstuck from the chains using the shoe in mouth technique! That’s going to work every time, right?
That guy in the knit cap is totally the next to go.
Merry Christmas to everybody, and especially Ethan and Noah! Keep up the great work guys!
Is anyone else freaked out by the man with the yellow hat’s face in the first frame?
Yep. Pretty freaky looking. Think its the teeth that put it over the edge.
Almost as scary as the bears.
I can feel my spine getting ripped out of my back already o.0
Indeed the yellow-hat guy is plain funny.
I’m absolutely hooked on this. The art is just so fantastic and each page just keeps you wanting more. Honestly, I don’t think you could have picked a better way to keep us in suspense while you’re on a short break.
Also it seems that the bear chewing on the shoe keeps getting more blood on him from nowhere. The first panel has a lot more blood on his mouth than the last page, and where he’s just chewing on it, and joel is running, blood has covered a good portion of the shoe(but I’ll just count that up to his paw being covered in blood too.
That bear (I call him Smokey) actually has quite a lot of blood stuck to him, first from Smelly Hippy Dude and then from Bacon Ninja Shirt Guy. The amount visible varies due to the direction the wind is blowing his facial bear fur and the amount of artistic abstraction necessary to achieve the desired effect.
I like the random dude with the yellow hat. He has some very similar facial expressions going on. Is he our Redshirt character?
God bless loose shoes!! the next time someone hassles me for mine I’ll give them this as the excuse.
I’m a little puzzled as to how the shoes can be loose enough to come off at THAT point, but snug enough that the bear was able to yank him out of the chains WITHOUT pulling it off.
I figured the bear was going to toss him, not that his shoe would come off. Shows what I know.
I telling you man, explodey vaAaAaaAAaaan….
Hmmm, am I the only one slightly puzzled by the concept of “N” locks, all opened by the same (currently rather inaccessible) key? Or is it something along the lines of the rest of the keys being at Nigel, who can’t hand them over to the others not having his own key (in which case Joel might help now)…? Or did I just miss something already mentioned…?
Anyway, I love this. Merry Christmas to all!
I think there is just one key. Either that or Nigel forgot he can hand them the keys to theirs now.
Andrea’s head is huge.
Not as huge as her eyes (excluding the first panel; that looks definitely absurd, her expression somehow reminding f De Goya’s depiction of Saturn).
I liked how Joel states how his SHOE is CAUGHT THE BEAR’S TEETH, right after his shoe was caught in the bear’s teeth.
It occurred to me that the bear could have crushed his foot rather than get the shoe caught. Does this mean that it was purposefully being careful? Foreshadowing?
Merry Christmas. Keep up the good work. This is the best webcomic about bears ever!
Damn her eyes are HUGE! Even while being slightly behind Joel her eyeballs look bigger! Nothin’ like suddenly realizing that just because you’re a vegan animals are not to shoot you up 3 contact sizes.
They all die. Brand new characters will be introduced in three pages.
Missing my Bearmageddon fix! :'(
P.S. the bears still suck!

I find myself quite scared for the main characters of this story. Unless of course, the bears are actually the main characters…then…GO BEARS!!!! WOO!!

Thought this was related.
