Grizzly & The Bear Patrol

[kybearfuzz]

Most of the folks on my friends list have seen this already, but I've had some requests from non-LJ folks to see the superhero-comic book that I've been drawing for the better part of a year. It's been a big endeavor and done more for fun than anything else. So here is the entire first issue (24 pages) in a non-friends-only post. The images are very large, so I've put them behind a cut to save space (and those who have read it already). If it were a movie, it'd be PG-13 or so (no nudity, but some suggestive stuff), so use your best judgement of whether you should view it at work.

You know, as a kid, I got hooked on comics (primarily Superman and Batman as I recall). Your excellent work reminds me of the style and pace of those comics. You have a lOT of talent Mark!

I still love it! :)
And I'm still honored to be one of the characters. :)

"Good stuff, Maynard!"

Honestly, this is high quality. I'm envious of your skills.

Simply Amazing

To be honest, I have not read comics in a great many years and most likely due to the lack of interest in the subject matter. Perhaps I turned into an adult too soon. :) It's quite obvious that you have mad talent and your lack of current desire to publish, I think you have done the greater bear/scifi/fantasy community brethren proud. And without an X-rated factor to boot! (Not that I'd object to that either - lol.) Excellent job mister. I look forward to the future enstallments and perhaps learning of your print en masse announcement in the future. ;) Big ol'cubby bears hugs handsome! - G

Solid, retro-styled super-hero fun! And of course, the art is to die for. Loved all the bears, but especially Grizzly and his sonic growl (which was a touch of genius, by the way)!

I agree with garbear73; I wouldn't change a word of that comment. Excellent, and I'm not a "comic book guy" (by any measure except physiognomy)!

OMG! I've been out of the loop! I just caught up with this. It's magnificent, hot, a tiny bit geeky, and just a little bit puerile (in a good way!) I'm moving right on to the next issue!
