Bearman Cartoon: Cold Case

1 4 10 Bearman Cartoon Snowman Killer

So you might notice some changes around here.  First I redid the Bearman Cartoons logo.  Not entirely happy with it but I am still tweaking. 

The second came from a comment on Reddit from someone calling himself GodShapedBullet.  He said “I think the comics might be funnier if you lead with them.  Nothing ruins a joke like explaining it.”  Since most of my stuff was topical and you all probably haven’t heard about the situation, I had been putting the cartoon last.  But he had a point so going forward I’ll try to put the cartoon first.

George Ford gave me the idea for this cartoon.  He came up with it but never could figure out how to make it fit with the story lines he had going.  Now why he gave it to me I dont’ know because it isn’t topical humor.  But I had fun with it.  Arctic Blast and EQ Comics have strips about crazy Frosty’s right now.

I think the most prolific snowman cartoons come from Tundra cartoonist Chad Carpenter.  I thought for sure he would have done this idea and spent 20 minutes going through his archive.  Now he may have done it but I couldn’t find it.

    You know, you can always tell when a snowman eats by what he leaves behind when it gets warmer.

    Don’t rule out suicide for this one. It’s hard times for snowmen, lately, and with the looming threat of global warming, a lot of them just give up ahead of time.

  3. Bo Lumpkin says:

    It ain’t suicide. Whoever did this must have ice water in his veins. That can cause a complete melt down. I like the new look but then, I liked the old one too.

  4. Lynn says:

    how one takes constructive criticism speaks volumes about their character bearman. the fact that george ford gave you the idea for this post tells me he thinks highly of you and do we all. you both get two thumbs up!

  5. Lynn says:

    i really need to start proofreading my comments. 😕

  6. Brogan says:

    Cool trackback feature, but my strip is called ‘Arctic Blast!’. I think you were thinking of old newspaper strip ‘Arctic Circle, lol. Actually I think that one got dropped by the syndicates… 😀

  7. John K says:

    Love the new logo…. And this comic is just lovely!

  8. George says:

    You did a very good job on this, Bearman, as I knew you would. Lynn is right. I think a lot of your “hack” talent and I felt you’d be the perfectly-styled cartoonist for this comic. And I was correct (as usual). 😀

  9. ??? add ‘spineless’ after blooded???

  10. danineteen says:

    I personally liked your old site banner better. But I do like the idea of putting the comic first in the post.

  11. spilledinkguy says:

    Would it put be considered disturbing the evidence if I sauteed that guys nose?! 🙂

  12. yorksnbeans says:

    and a thief…where’s his eyes, mouth and arms? And I’m almost positive he was smoking a pipe.

  13. frigginloon says:

    psst Bearman….a little trap….if you are going to put your cartoon first make sure you fill out all the description, caption, title crap before you post because you can easily lose Google rankings. The spiders recognize text before images . Make sure, if possible, to name your cartoon the title of your post , instead of say cartoon 234. and use all your keywords when describing the image 🙂 .

  14. that case will never be solved?

  15. OK, I WAS CONFUSED WITH IT AT FIRST! I THOUGHT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT A KILLER RABBIT WITH THE COP HOLDING THE CARROT. IF I WOULD HAVE SEEN TWO BUTTONS ON THE GROUND AND A HAT I WOULD HAVE FIGURED IT WAS A SNOWMAN RIGHT OFF. DO NOT MEAN TO BE A CARTOON CRITIC BUT FROM YOUR STORY I THOUGHT THIS WOULD HELP IMPROVE THE JOKE. THEN YOU WOULD NOT HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT!

  16. Its a drive-by melting.

  17. Sheila Deeth says:

    I wonder, if pink snowmen melt does that mean hot-blooded killers?

  18. Nate Fakes says:

    Are they sure they know what the carrot is? Could of died a “happy” snowman – if you know what I mean.

  19. frigginloon says:

    Maybe the snowman got a high temperature and just had to sweat it out? Personally I think he was a bit of a drip.

  20. MidwestMom says:

    Thumbs up 🙂 You always seem to make me laugh, Can I please print this out

  21. jammer5 says:

    Okay, folks, here’s the thing. Notice the eyes, nose and mouth are missing. This is a clear cut case of the snowman outgrowing his old snow balls, and exchanging them for a bigger set. The carrot was left because he don’t like carrots.

  22. Another California smowman….

  23. Redid the header once again. Dithering in the old one that was driving me nuts. Now it looks better.

  24. 25BAR says:

    LOL!
    The death of intelligence?

  25. The new logo is really SHARP. I like it.

    The toon is pretty funny too!
