  • Karen Owen Powerpoint: Editorial Cartoon from George Ford

    Editorial Cartoon: Duke University Karen Owen Powerpoint

    One good turn deserves a comeuppance.  As a thank you (or payback) to my guest cartoon at George Ford’s Addanac City, he has created a guest editorial cartoon for me.

    Seems a little coed at Duke University has created another sex scandal at the University.  Little Karen Owen bedded 13 athletes at the university between her sophmore and senior year.  She then decided to turn those exploits into a thesis of sorts in Powerpoint form showcasing pictures and graphs of the sexual aptitude of each of the men.   She titled the presentation “An Education Beyond The Classroom: Excelling In The Realm Of Horizontal Academics” but it has been referred to as the “Fuck List”  Well what started as a joke among a few of her friends has of course spread across the internet.

    So now there are rumors flying of both lawsuits and book deals.  What a crazy world.  Hey if anyone wants to pay me for the rights to a book on my lack of sexual exploits in college, I am standing by.

    Love how George included his main character Hank as the water boy.  Any other webcomic artists who want to jump into the editorial cartoon realm with a guest cartoon here (when it doesn’t fit what you are doing on your own site), just let me know.

  • Addanac City Christmas Cartoon

    So my friend George over at Addanac City Cartoon has been doing a story arc about Christmas. He promised on Christmas Day to have a “gigantic” 24 panel cartoon and even posted a teaser. 

    Here was our back and forth on his blog:

    Bearman:  I have now successfully blown up your Christmas Day cartoon and posted it early on my site. HA HA HA..  I feel like the guy that sells DVDs of movies that haven’t even come out yet. 
    George: You bootleggers and your fancy contraptions. You got a free visit from me just checking to see if you did so. 😀 .  You sneaky sonuvagun. 🙂
    Bearman:  I don’t want to get missed in your rounds so I need to be sneaky that way. 
    George: Actually, that was pretty ingenious of you. 😀 

    Well to really screw with George, I thought, why not just go ahead and do it.

    Below you will see the image that George posted.  Click on the smaller image to see the Addanac City Christmas spectacular enlarged in all its glory a day earlier than what you will see on his site.

  • Addanac City – Hank at 100

    addanac-city-web-banner

    George Ford of Addanac City was one of the first Webcomic artists to find me on the internet and actually comment on my stuff.  Addanac City is all about Hank Addanac and the loons that surround him.  George describes Hank as “one kid who can’t seem to stay out of trouble. Nearly every day, you can find Hank in hot water with his family, friends, and school officials.  Hank has no respect for authority whatsoever. He’s that kid you love to hate and hate to love.”

    Some tend to compare Hank to Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes but I tend to think he is more like Dennis the Menace because he is oblivious to the mayhem he causes.  However Hank is Dennis with some actual Cojones.  You can follow George via Twitter as well.

    Thanks for the funny George!

  • Bearman Cartoon: Mannequin Revisited

    I am nothing if I don’t listen to my fan base. The other day I posted a cartoon about the Mannequin controversy at KT’s Barbecue in Cincinnati. Well according to George, Myra, and Ram, my choice of being modest and not drawing nipples would not go unnoticed. (Update: Add Robert J to the list of original requesters.)

    And George thought it would have been funny if some kid erased the “M” off “Mass” to make it say “Ass”. I could only think of one kid who could be responsible. George Ford’s own Hank Addanac at AddanacCity.

    So for all of you I give you the revamped toon.

  • New Cartoon Wednesday

    Don’t have a new one myself but some of my favorite “undiscovered” cartoonists have new toons up that you should check out.

    Addanac City – A comic strip about Hank Addanac (part Dennis the Menace, part Bart Simpson, part Michael Meyers).

    Calamities of Nature – when animals talk, people listen. (even though he was on the front page of Digg yesterday, I’ll still put him in here)

    Life with Kreg – if Jeff Spicoli were a teenager today.

    Spud Comics – The Far Side without the Cows

    The Frustrated Cartoonist – Mad Magazine contibutor.  Part webcomic, part diary.

    And while not a cartoonist herself, The Daily Uplift, has an hilarious animated commercial for Bontrust Bank.  You have to wait for it though.

    Anyone else a cartoonist that people should check out. Put it in the comments section.

  • George Ford of Addanac City Guest Cartoon

    A few weeks ago I highlighted the work of George Ford and showcased the guest cartoon I did for his cartoon strip Addanac City.  Instead of his strip style, I used my typical editorial cartoon style.

    George has returned the favor by creating an editorial cartoon for me in his style and using his main character Hank.  I love it.  I can just see Madoff trying to reclaim his fortune by acting like one of those “royal monarchs” that everyone gets spammed with.

    George is letting me post it here first before he posts it on his site so go check out his stuff as he is now updating his cartoons SEVEN days a week.  I give him a month before he burns out. (j/k George).

    Also be sure to check out George’s Addanac City blog as it has different stuff than the main site (one day he will figure out how to meld the two or I’ll figure it out and be able to tell him but he is more web literate than I so I doubt it)

    Click on the picture to get it bigger or you can probably see it bigger on the AC site.

  • Bearman Cartoon: Guest Toonist on Addanac City

    One of my frequent visitors and a member of my blog roll is the creator of a great webtoon called Addanac City (where the heck he got the name Addanac from it don’t know – someone thought it was Canada backwards with an extra “d”).

    Anyway, the main character of the cartoon is Hank.  I see Hank as a cross between Dennis the Menace and Bart Simpson.  He has Barts “eat me” attitude but sometimes the naivete of Dennis who does bad stuff but doesn’t always realize the effect he has on others.

    After my guest cartoon run on Unemployed Dad, George (the mastermind behind Addanac) invited me to work on a guest cartoon for Addanac City in my editorial cartoon style.  Hank has a whacked out hairdo and I always questioned why.   So I came up with my own answer.

    I’ll post it here tomorrow, but for now go visit AddanacCity.com  and see my take.
