Bear, Issue 1

$16.00

Get your paws on the first issue of Bear, a coming of age story that follows a twenty-something bear's journey from the back-alleys of Montreal to the busy streets of London. The first issue of Bear is 35 pages, mostly black and white with some colour, with a full colour, gloss cover and staple bound.

Bear’s having a tough time: there’s pizza in her DVD player, beer at her breakfast table, and how old was that guy she just slept with? Life in London was supposed to be different from Montreal, but not much has changed since her move. Her love life is still a mess, her family is unravelling, and she’s back at university without a career in sight. Will she manage to find herself abroad or just get lost in the big city? Can she embrace her inner grizzly, or will she be mauled by her own insecurities? And what about this Mouse guy who’s always around? Tall, furry and handsome, he just won’t scurry out of her life, which is annoying when they are definitely, totally, 100% JUST FRIENDS. An exploration of love, identity, heritage and purpose, this cartoon bildungsroman offers big laughs, tenderness and strategies for growing up without being a jerk.
