Endtown by Aaron Neathery for October 30, 2012

Smiles, but Lida only sees teeth.

Ahhhrgh.

Good god, the dentists must have an odd time of it in Endtown.

Most likely the Veterinarian was transformed as well, knows how challenging it is. I could only hope that I’d be changed into the (polar) bear form if I were there. Flannel shirt and dark tan loafers. But, alas, one can’t be picky regarding such. Aaron, how much would something like that go for? 5×7, or 8×10?

Is this the red light district?

Linda sees a stock character, a fowl man with a bear behind, and in the distance, a gnu face in the crowd.

His smile leaves a lot to be considered. She is new…… He sees her and he goes WOW . or she thinks …. he is hungry. No dialog leaves us with our own conclusions. I vote for the WOW. Blessed Be

At least now Linda and Holly have something in common. Maybe Holly and Wally can introduce her to some nice guy and she can experience life on the wild side.

Perhaps she is now “in the market”But needs to use caution and careDon’t stay there! Go somewhere and park itYou’re caught ’tween the Bull and the Bear!=|====/ Level HeadVote for Endtown 2.0And for Doc Rat, tooThe Endtown ForumThe Endtown AuctionThe Endtown Books

Poor Linda. It seems the whole world is looking down on her.

I’m seeing a lot of parallels between this and Uncle Andrew’s adventures in the newly created Narnia. Fortunately, I don’t think anyone will mistake Linda for a tree.

She’s lucky that the bear is just interested in a side of beef.

Wow. Even though she has not shown herself to be a very nice or unselfish person I do feel sorry for someone who has to face such a traumatic change. It would be hard. Her own selfishness will dictate to her how she sees all the teeth.

What I couldn’t see earlier on my Nook Color I can see clearly now writ large on my computer screen—-the bear doesn’t want to eat, he wants something we can’t go into graphic detail about on a PG / PC site. (Unless Neathery draws something along those lines.)#And Linda still doesn’t have a clue about life in and the people of Endtown…

What can we say its a Bear and Bull (Heifer) market.It is Linda’s paranoid view (who can blame her) as the Bear says something to the Cow lady. The Cow lady made eyes at the Bear. (GO BEARS).(Get busy Its your birthday, Get busy Its your birthday!!!) Sorry got carried away. Cant get Black(ie) Magic out of my brain.

And YES Bears do slobber. Alot. Add a female? Slobber city.

Fine Not a single person has said it so I will.“Got Milk?”

She’s lucky he’s not a panda bear. A panda eats, shoots, and leaves.

Look! It’s ursine from above!

Surviving Sandy?

Linda still hasn’t gotten the truth about Endtown;Anthro’s=peopleTopsiders=?

Hmmm…now that’s something I missed. I assumed that the bear was smiling at Linda, he’s really smiling at the female bovine. I love the way this particular strip works in showing Linda’s perspective.

The Bear’s probably just opening his mouth to call out to the horned lady he had just passed. The lady didn’t seem too worried when the two passed each other. I think Linda’s just fixated on the bear man’s large teeth because she’s not even used to seeing people’s real faces, much less mutants larger than her up close that she can’t shoot.

Koalas may be adorable teddy bears to our eyes, but they’re actually viciously territorial and violent little creatures, if she has any animal instincts from her transformation it could make integration even more difficult.

And the Lord so marked Cain that no man would kill him. The first mark of the beast.And yes bears will eat grass and berries like a a cow, baby animals know no fear they have not learned, and cats do eat grass.Linda is not being punished. She is a re-educated Topsider who may turn into a Manchurian Candidate. Very critical time for her development and intergration.

Go ahead ignore me.I will go back to my time out.

Considering the main food supply in Endtown is mostly beans, the question I’m having is…Does Mr. Bear want to “meet” her, or “eat” her?

It may be too late for her to exercise her “Drop Bear” defense.

“Yes, so far.”Good. Hope the water damage is minimal and you all come out of this ok.

I know I was stationed in Alaska saw my fill of bears. The loved those blueberries in the early fall and bacon. If we fried bacon in camp we better have armed guards those bears would storm the camp.

I was fishing in a stream in Alaska. I heard some rukus up stream and saw this gigantic grizzly coming down the stream. I got out of the stream and moved to the sides to get out of his way. The sides of the gully were too steep and all I heard was this grunt and snort behind me. I turned and that thing was standing up looking down at me at about 25 yards. I had a six shot 357 magnum. I figured 5 for the bear and 1 for me. This monster stood 11 ft if it was an inch. I stood there the bear stood over there and we just looked at each other. The bear snorted growled making noises I never heard a living thing make. The bear grunted one last time dropped down to all four turned and walked on down the stream. As he walked down the stream he would stop and look back then walk on. I decided to stop fishing awhile, clean my shorts, and have a big shot of Tequila. It was either mutual respect or just dumb luck.

Or the soiled shorts that kept that bear from kicking my ass.
