Woops! Sorry for the late post everyone, I hate being inconsistent. I went off and forgot what day it was. Well, here is your page. Only a couple hours late.
As I discussed last post, we will go ahead and take a break for about a month to get caught up and give me time to catch up on other commitments. We will continue on May 9th, so it won’t be too long of a wait. In the meantime, if any of you want to submit guest comics, jokes, bear hybrid drawings, pinups or anything else to entertain us during the down time, please send it my way! (just send it to info(at)bearmageddon(dotcom).
Axe Cop Volume 3 is out, so please go pick it up! Malachai and I did an interview with Mtv Geek about the new volume, and in the interview Malachai lays out what kind of story he would write if he were the author of Bearmageddon:
If I wrote Bearmageddon, I would make there be lots of bears that have different abilities and they took over the world. Every thing in the world fights the bears, except for bears. The grizzly bears betrayed the humans and they know technology so they make themselves all better and upgraded and all the other animals started fighting them. Even the fleas and beetles started fighting them. I don’t know how the turtles would help but I think they would get in their shell then tell a guy with a golf club to bang them into the grizzly bears.Wait… how come they call a box turtle a box turtle? My dad thinks it’s because they are good boxers. The sea turtles couldn’t really help, but the snapping turtles could snap at them like weapons. (trails off into talking about every kind of turtle…)
I kind of wish I had thought of some of that. Maybe I will use it in the sequel. Thanks for being a great audience!! See you on Wednesday.
Ethan
I sense a splash page coming before the act break … and it will be awesome and horrible.
Oh MAN this was actually really exciting. What a tease. God damn.
Does that can say “Tofu Hemp Milk Shake”? I’m excited to see the carnage that Nigel can see through those binoculars!
Is the break happening before or after Page 66?
after. Page 66 will be the one we stop at and you will stare it in anticipation until May 9th.
Goddamn that’s going to be a long wait. Like the day before Christmas when you were a kid.
Killdeer’s face says, “And they just called me crazy.”
Wednesdayyyyyyyyyyy.
Commence Bearmageddon withdraw syndrome. Also know as BMS. What are your symptoms?
Every time I see a white guy with dreadlocks or an ironic mustache, my brain will automatically go into attack mode!
Awesome page, but now I’m in dire need to see what’s going on.
Also, Malachai’s imagination is one of the best things the internet ever provided to me. Wish I could hear his whole idea about turtles =).
yeah I like the idea of the golfers teaming up with the turtles to fight grizzly bears.
Shouldn’t that be BWS?
What?! We have to wait a whole month to get the “Bears ravaging the town” reveal?!
Ohhhhhhh MAN I cannot wait. :uses time machine: OH MY GOD YOU GUYS!!!!
Oh god… Is the city burning in flames? Are Bearodactyls tearing down fighter jets? It will be a sleepless weekend waiting for Wednesday…
Over the hill, there is a massive bear rave. Dickinson just saw flashing lights and fist-pumping and naturally assumed war. He’s been out of touch for a while now.
THIS. THIS COMMENT. FULL OF WIN.
That comment just made my day 😀
Sounds like a awesome april fools page.
I mean, yes, we have to wait a month, but a) totally worth it and b) the blog uses the word sequel, which makes me happy beyond words 😀
Okay…okay…gotta keep my expectations/anticipation down even though the next page is going to be awesome and horrible and epic and all. Just GOTTA STAY CALM!
That tofu hemp milkshake sounds absolutely nasty!
Oooh I’d love to do some hybrid bear artwork!
Funny enough I’ve just had a 3 week break from my own webcomic, so I can relate. Can’t wait to see more!
Also… tofu hemp milkshake? Bleh!
Can. Not. Wait.
Seriously, thank your parents for us all, Ethan. They (and the Internet) have, without exaggeration, made this world a better place for having had you and Malachai. Have a great weekend!
Turtlegeddon?
Ethan, I know that you do not want to spend the rest of your career being labeled as the guy who can only work with the ideas of his little brother, but you have to admit, Malachai’s plot line is pure gold and superior by far to anything else that can be found on the Internet.
Not that your own stuff is not excellent, of course, but Malachai is clearly some kind of creative savant with whom the rest of us can never hope to compare! 😉
OH BOY HERE WE GO
I can’t bear the suspension…
A month! Just enough time to figure out how to make that milkshake..
Well, it’s a good thing that there’s no bears here in Australia, except at the zoos, and those don’t really count for much.
Yup, Australia has it all :V
Nah, it’s just EVERYTHING ELSE in Australia that wants to kill you.
While not a true bear, koalas are referred to as such and the world’s ursine community hired them as mercenaries to engage in sneak attacks from above. Beware the drop bear, Australia. You are not safe.
Dude, now I seriously have to convince my band to name our next album “Beware the Drop Bear, Australia”.
Not discounting everything else, I love the speech bubble for silence. I dare say I’ve not seen that before. Hilarious!
LOL that interview is hilarious. Malachai has the coolest responses ever.
OOOHH MYYYY….. when nigel’s always chill personality vanishes… We can only guess. And WOW mart is TOTALLY going to be used as a stronghold. I am going to have to breath through a paper bag until the next one come out. And on an unrelated note, the Muppets movie was waaay better than I thought it would be. You just have to stomache through the beginning
dear lord… must. see. new. comic! ive been folowing this since the begining and i love it!
suggestion: has any1 seen the oatmeal? in it is all kinds of stuff about bears. i.e things bears love. in one of his comics is the bearodactyl, a killing machine full of awsomeness. http://theoatmeal.com/comics/ptero
Dickinson Killdeer, I believe, was not lost in the woods. He didn’t simply take a wrong turn on a Boy Scout hike.
He had a prophetic vision of this day. It was then that he decided that he was the one to lead humanity back from the brink of Bearmageddon. But first, he had to escape the comforts of the human suburbs and live as his future enemy. So, on that fateful day, young Dickinson turned left when the rest of the troop turned right. One boy, taming the wilds, learning the weaknesses and strengths of his bear foe, all to be ready for this day.
dear lord… http://andthatwasthemostieverthrewup.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/bearodactyl.jpg
One more day and then the long countdown to May 9……….oh, the agony!
I have to say, this made me cream my pants.
