Steven is my homage to Steven Colbert who as I understand it is quite fond of both bears (sort of, he sure talks about them a lot) and the naming of things after himself. I usually find the Daily Show to be more interesting but Colbert can be absolutely hilarious sometimes. I especially love the backhanded compliments he sneaks in about his favorite conservatives, and ‘The Word’.
Plus I believe today is the last day to vote for the little penguin on Threadless if you like him :)

I forgot about this since it’s been almost two months since his first birthday but my friend made this hat for Sambit and I wanted to show you guys because it is the coolest little handmade baby skull eating shark hat you’ll ever see (until she makes an even cooler one I’m sure, Sam’s uncle wants one too…)

Steven must be the odd one out.
BTW, at first, I figured your kid was doing a Capamari (From Kirby Epic Yarn) impression.
December 13th, 2010 at 12:13 am
OMG Best baby cap ever! <3
Anyways about the comic.. this Stephen guy made me laugh even if he didn’t say anything funny. XD
December 13th, 2010 at 12:16 am
butch and hulk look the same steven however……thats a different story.
i see some differences tho
December 13th, 2010 at 12:32 am
Steven sounds so horrifying that crack would run in fear of the very name, then again he’d run away reguardless
December 13th, 2010 at 12:44 am
Awww Steven’s cute XD
At least he’s easy to tell apart from the other two. Assuming the oblivious face is gonna be his thing X3
December 13th, 2010 at 1:01 am
More horrifying then mittens!
December 13th, 2010 at 1:08 am
Well, I guess I like steven better than hulk and butch.
December 13th, 2010 at 1:17 am
Love all the polar guys
December 13th, 2010 at 1:18 am
Steven! Instant fan favorite of the polar bears :D
December 13th, 2010 at 1:19 am
That hat is the BEST hat and I want one. D:<
Also, jerks though the polar bears may be, Steven is just plain adorable.
December 13th, 2010 at 2:17 am
For some reason I instantly like Steven
December 13th, 2010 at 2:30 am
Everyone loves steven because he’s a little derpy! He’s cuteeee
December 13th, 2010 at 2:48 am
-skull eating shark hat plz-
Lol I’M STEVEN! And that happened to me a couple days ago… I was at the mall with friends and they introduced themselves to a couple girls as Sketch and Ditto (their “cool” nicknames). Then I was like Hi I’m Steven.
December 13th, 2010 at 2:55 am
I don’t know why, but I just gave Steven (The bear) a russian accent…….A great big, harry russain that can bench-press twice his body wheight, but russain nonetheless.
December 13th, 2010 at 3:33 am
BEST HAT EVER!!! :D
December 13th, 2010 at 4:09 am
I love Steven!
December 13th, 2010 at 4:25 am
Hulk, Butch and Steven. Hah, instantix classix
December 13th, 2010 at 5:28 am
Right, they do look different, and large, and intimidating, and Steven scares me, he looks too normal.
Nice hat (wouldn’t have said that a year ago) comic relief!
December 13th, 2010 at 5:42 am
Pixar or Disney should definitely make an animation movie of Bear Nuts. Well maybe not Disney, they’re too conservative :D
December 13th, 2010 at 6:05 am
heh, Steven, he must be the “sensitive/wus” out of the three (or a wus by polar bear standards)
and they do have their differences, hulk has roundish eyebrows and no teeth sticking out, butch has flat eyebrows and one tooth sticking out, and steven has no eyebrows and no teeth sticking out.
December 13th, 2010 at 6:17 am
Ok I scrolled down the page and I wasn’t ready for the incredible cuteness that is Sam. I feel like someone just dumped a cup of sugar in my mouth.
December 13th, 2010 at 6:45 am
cute boy.
The bear with no eyebrows is Steven!
December 13th, 2010 at 7:20 am
Beware anyone with a generic name… especially Bob o-o
also Beware more so if they are zombies .-.
December 13th, 2010 at 7:26 am
The hat is awesome!
Heh–Steven! I like their names!
December 13th, 2010 at 7:26 am
Ugggh, I was going to ask for the pattern to the hat, but then I looked closer and realized it was crochet, not knit. *facepalm* I really need to learn how to do that some time.
Lovely comic, as usual.
December 13th, 2010 at 8:57 am
…isn’t Stephen Colbert deathly afraid of bears? It’s the no. 1 on his ThreatDown list if I remember correctly
if you named an eagle after him however….
hehe Great comic as usual though. Love your art style :)
December 13th, 2010 at 10:29 am
STEVEN! XD that’s epic! Stephen Colbert will be happy haha!
December 13th, 2010 at 11:48 am
HA! Lech actually looks cute in panel 5. :D
Steven, you are teh best!
And Sammy’s hat cannot be beat.
December 13th, 2010 at 12:02 pm
Forgot to say…poor Tanked!!!
December 13th, 2010 at 12:15 pm
Really out of nowhere Steven. XD I would have looked at him unblinking for a while because I would be too surprised. XD
December 13th, 2010 at 12:46 pm
Love the hat! Hulk, Steven, and Butch are turning out to be awesome:)
December 13th, 2010 at 1:21 pm
Craaaaap. I forgot to see page 3.
December 13th, 2010 at 1:44 pm
LOL wrong time to make name mistakesss
SAM. IS. SO. CUTE. WHEN. HIS. HEAD. IS. BEING. EATEN. BY. A. KNIT. SHARKY. 83
December 13th, 2010 at 2:16 pm
So where do I place MY order for a knit Head-Nomming-Shark Hat? I so want it!
also, i love the new bears! My preference would be to not add in too many new characters. or at least not make them apart of the main cast. That said, you are the artist, you are the omniscient author (in regards to this strip) so it is your call. just want to make it clear.
keep it up!
December 13th, 2010 at 4:00 pm
love like always. butch and hulk still make me think of cave men. but Steven is super cute.
December 13th, 2010 at 5:27 pm
Funny that everyone is judging Steven by the cover. Who knows if he turns to be a jerk next page.
December 13th, 2010 at 6:43 pm
First i thought … strange polar bear with beady eyes, but hey it’s Steven – the nice guy! Hopefully he doesn’t get any trouble with Prozac if he will forget his pills :)
btw. I really like your comics … keep on drawing! Greetings from Germany ;)
December 13th, 2010 at 7:11 pm
Gotta say, on their first appearance, they do all look the same.
Or maybe I’m just stupid. :p
December 13th, 2010 at 11:37 pm
Pissedzac is like the only way not to be at a huge size disadvantage. And Prozac stops being anyone’s friend then.
December 14th, 2010 at 9:11 am
I’m pretty sure it’s Stephen Colbert; remember tha episode where he pronounced “DeSieve” as “Decieve” and the guy responded by pronouncing “Stephen Colbert” as “Steffen Coal-Bert”.
December 15th, 2010 at 8:57 am
Could you get your freind to post the pattern on here? ANd find out if its a knit or crocheted patteren if you could.
December 15th, 2010 at 4:46 pm
Lol!
Prozac: “Well! Mr. Butch, Mr. Hulk, and-..”
Polar-bear: “Steven..”
Prozac goes: “Right… O_o”
God, I loved that one! xD
December 15th, 2010 at 5:02 pm
@13yaroza: what do you have against mittens?
@Wutdisdo: love the adjective “derpy” what does that mean exactly? :)
@Steven: Who calls himself Ditto?? Hopefully there’s an interesting story behind that one…
@Stalker: that would be cool…
@Bosn: lol, as it was his birthday the next few pictures we took were covered in cake :)
@Clyve: I can neither knit nor crochet so it’s all magic to me.
@Cheryl: exactly!
@iknewthat: :)
@disastrum: who said they were part of the main cast? These guys are just more secondary fun.
@Nicole: good cause I want them to look more or less interchangeable hence it’s hard to get their names right.
@Antonious: If she wants to share it I’ll post a link, and I believe she crocheted it.
December 15th, 2010 at 9:14 pm
Tell her that I’ll track her down and do the god father of all bear hugs until she gives up the pattern. And I’m mighty strong from wrestling 3 nieces and a nephew every day.
December 15th, 2010 at 10:20 pm
I think Steven should be the mad one as it looks like he was the one with a dye job. :)
December 16th, 2010 at 4:43 pm
Hahah! I want these polar bears as permanent cast.
December 16th, 2010 at 11:17 pm
That is the most AWESOME HAT EVER!!!!!!! :D
December 19th, 2010 at 6:52 am
Steven is obviously the tough one. :3
