A Monster under the Bed Quick Sketch and NEW Teddy Bear Tale T-shirts

I asked Unconditional artist Dan Nokes to put together a Quick Sketch of what would the Monster under the bed the No Names would get up too when the Bogeyman isn't around. I kind of feel the No Names have the potential to be the ZakuZaku of the Teddy Bear Tale world.

Plus the first two Teddy Bear Tale T-shirts have been designed and you can pick them up in the Teddy Bear Tales Store, you can now wear the evocative first image that started the Teddy Bear Tale illustrated journey or choose the dark side pick the Monsters under the bed. Go check out these custom shirts here.

First look – A poster that shows eleven reasons why the Expendables 2 is going to be really silly and most likely a lot of fun

The Expendables was one of those guilty pleasure movies that I feel only a 80′s child really gets. Rumor of a sequel already in the works quickly followed and now I've got a first look at the poster. For sheer awesomeness of over the top action heroes gathered in one place the poster illustrates eleven reasons why this movie is going to be very silly and a lot of fun to watch… Yes… That is Chuck Norris and for that reason alone this has to be watched… Bwah ha!

A parody counter argument to the bizarro Frank Miller OWS rant meet the Dick Knight

Last week we took an odd trip into bizarro world with a surprising rant from comic book maestro (and I use that lightly now) Frank Miller directed toward the Occupy Wall Street movement, which you can read here (and still feels like a viral marketing effort for Frank Miller's latest and poorly received book Holy Terror). I also think it was a rant that was surprising more by its source than content than anything else. To counter Frank Miller's argument, artist Richard Pace put together a Dark Knight parody called Dick Knight which you can view here. Fans of the Dark Knight Returns will really enjoy the style of this page.
