This is the 4th comic on nedroid’s website (http://nedroid.com/2006/02/2008-hoops/), the first comic to contain Beartato (that we know of) and when I met Anthony Clark at Emerald City Comicon I asked him one simple question:
Why did Beartato’s house burn down? WELL FEAR NOT AS THE TERRIBLE SECRET IS REVEALED IN THIS EXCLUSIVE REVELATION!
Now everything makes sense… forever.
This is canon
It’s here!
You can now buy your very own copy of Beartato and the Perilous Danger directly from TopatoCo. For a very limited time, you can order a deluxe signed copy which I will ruin by drawing something in. Perhaps a Beartato, or done theme of wizard? I’m only in Massachusetts for a few days before TopatoCon this weekend, so if you want this then get on it fast!
Look what now exists! Mini Beartato Squishables, or as TopatoCo’s Holly named them, Beartato Tots.
The other day, Topatoco mentioned they could now print up phone case wallets, so you can now protect your phone with Beartato or Party Cat. They’re currently only available for some iPhones and the Galaxy 5, but if there’s enough demand for other sizes I bet Topatoco would be amenable. Check them out here!
wmhunter asked:
Whenever I go through your archives, I wonder about some of the changes in your art style, and especially the switch from the relatively brawny Beartato (like the one on display in http://nedroid.com/2006/07/beartato-99/) to the wiry fella we all know and love today. Was that a conscious decision or a more gradual change?
Those thick limbs were a very short-lived experiment (in fact, I think I only used them in that one comic). I feel like they make Beartato look too humanoid and out-of-balance. He looks funnier as a big ball with tiny arms and legs.
Holiday deadlines are quickly approaching if you wish to order items from TopatoCo. Hey, speaking of, did you know that Beartato books and merchandise make excellent gifts for everyone who has ever lived?
Why not buy a book for someone you love? They will be honored and humbled that you care enough to buy them such a great gift, not to mention impressed by your excellent taste.
Or why not buy a Beartato Tot for someone you hate? They will be puzzled. “Why did my enemy, who hates me, give me such an excellent gift?” It’ll really freak them out. They won’t know what you’re up to, and that’s the perfect time to strike!
Or you could buy a cool shirt for a stranger. Okay, okay, maybe buy it for yourself. Don’t you deserve it for being such a thoughtful person? The answer is yes.
