The Return Of Frank and Mikey

The bears return to the Panda House, I have returned to my cottage in the 100 acre wood, and returned to the drawing table with a new ‘toon for your enjoyment and a little escapism from reality, which really, really stinks right now.

Yes, Mittens has decided making millions of people suffer and starve is a worthwhile trade off for …what? not having the Epstein files released? Not getting his own way in Congress? Being shown to be a big whiney law breaking baby?

But we are here to bring you all the bears you need to get through the day. By the way, Frank and Mikey are pretty sure that this video is AI and it totally was not one of them.

An interesting thing happened while I was gone (okay, you might not think it was interesting, but I do). Readership appeared to be up while I was gone and not reposting ‘toons, since I always take something of a social media break when I go on the road. A fluke, perhaps? A bunch of Russian bots trying to take over panda satire? Some influential social media personage boosting this website? A couple of bears who think Frank and Mikey are hilarious? Who knows! If you are one of the above and are new to The Panda Chronicles, hop on into the comments and introduce yourself.

And if you haven’t already voted, GET OUT THERE AND VOTE BEFORE YOUR POLLS CLOSE!

More Fun With Bears!

Oh my…I know I’ve left Frank and Mikey on the road with no direction, but I got distracted with a fun project, namely hand drawn and color Starter Kits!

What the heck is that, you might very well ask. If your fezbook feed is anything like mine, a lot of A.I. images are popping up all over the place, including some boxed set depictions of various things/people. So, a bunch of artists have done their own, starting with self portrait like “kits” all hand drawn and painted by the artists.

This was my first:

Then I did one for my friend in cyber space and real life, Terpie cat and her feline companions Ziggy and Marley

And finally, it seemed like it was just the time of year for this:

Don’t worry! I’m going to do one for Pinky, as well as Frank and Mikey, along with a whole bunch of other subjects. The more I do, the more ideas that pop into my head.

And, of course since these are so much fun, I thought it would be a lot of fun to put them on some stuff at RedBubble so you could collect your own! I know everyone hates getting so many marketing emails, but Redbiubble posts frequent sales, so it might be worth signing up to get their emails for a bit. I’ll let you know here when new designs are being released.

I’ll try to get back to Frank and Mikey’s Big Adventure this week or next!

Till then,

Bears of the Traveling Kind

Fat Bear Season is upon us, as the Katmai bears scoop up salmon to get ready for another wild Russian Alaskan winter, and more importantly, compete in the annual Fat Bear Contest! Will this be the year Frank or Mikey takes the prize? Is there a residency requirement or can any bear just barge in? I guess we’ll find out!

In the meantime, Frank and Mikey are almost ready to hit the road!

Uh oh, indeed!

Be the Bear!

It’s Time For a Road Trip!

Where to?
Brooks Falls, of course!
I’m sure this has nothing to do with the wrath of Josie because of Frank and Mikey eating the entire linzertorte!

I wonder if Otis will make an appearance.

Bob T I prefer pizza Panda

Bears Will Be Bears: an epilogue of sorts

It has been suggested that Frank and Mikey *might* have done more to fend off the ICE Maiden.

Fortunately, They are picking up the slack on the back end, as it were!

I really haven’t looked at the NooZ today. Has anything happened out in the world?

A busy Weekend…

kept me from finishing today’s ‘toon…I promise it’s in progress, but a painting took my attention this morning, a long nap yesterday afternoon, and tending to my mobile tomato garden also kept me from my appointed tasks.

Enjoy today’s offerings from the archives. I will say that nothing scary is happening to Ping this week as our story contuses to develop.

Nobody could resist Frank or Mikey!
This is an even worse assault on bears than that bumper sticker was!
I just love Mei’s little chats with her sister Lun Lun.

It seems like Six and Sebben need to make an appearance in our current story, don’t you think? Mittens and his evil minions wouldn’t stand a chance against them.

I promise I’ll have the next installment by Thursday!

Till then,

More Bears Behaving Badly at Lake Tahoe

I wasn’t sure if I’d get this done for today, but here we are!

Bears are continuing to behave badly in the Lake Tahoe area (Henrietta says it wasn’t her!) Alert reader Linda L spotted this NooZ story about a bear named Cinnamon (allegedly) who (allegedly) stole a 3 gallon tub of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream from a local shop (allegedly).

“I don’t know what the fuss is all about,” said former Tahoe resident Henrietta the Tank from her new address in Colorado at a luxury “residential facility”. “It’s not like they can’t make more ice cream. Honestly! Nobody wants to share any more!.”

We all scream for democracy…um…I mean ice cream

It’s Earth Day!

and nothing says “Earth Day” like being an endangered species!

Please enjoy these ‘toons about being endangered, or as Frank and Mikey say, “be dangerous, not endangered!”

No nonsense to be found here!
This isn’t Nam, man! There are rules here!
Don’t be endangered, be dangerous
Second verse, same as the first…

Hoping to finish a new ‘toon for Thursday!

Did you hear the nooz? Princess Pinky Junior is going to live in Vienna! Look out Austria! There is a Princess coming and she has a magical wand!

Penguins Were Only Doing What They Were Supposed To

Hey! Guess what today is? It’s the Ides of April, of course. The day you might be paying your taxes or filing an extension. Of course, since E-loon and his goons have fired a few thousand of the people who work at the IRS, who knows what will happen with your return.

And then there is the whole “yes there are tariffs, no, there are no tariffs…oh wait…just kidding! Let’s make penguins pay tariffs.”

Did someone say Penguins?

Frank and Mikey get in on the action!

And a little tribute to tax days past…

The only sure things are Pandas and taxes.

The nooz is so bad I can’t make fun of it right now…well, other than the penguin thing. I hope you are doing okay and hanging in there.
