Day 14: 31 Days of Pandas

All I want for Christmas…

On with our encore presentations of Panda-extravaganzas! But first, I have another new post on the Whidbey Island Arts Council Website and you can read it here! I even snuck in a few pandas. Hee Hee!

But now, a few holiday memories with some of your favorite pandas!

Nooooo! Not the PINK crayon!

May we say that The Panda Chronicles Coloring Book would make an excellent present?

You better watch out….

Once again proving the intransigence of Pinky, and the omnipotence of Mommy Mei

Who didn’t have a sibling like Pinky?

Fa-la-la-la-la deck the halls with lots of pandas,

Day 13: 31 days of Pandas & Episode 7 101 Bebe Pandas

14 Replies

As I compile this post, Alabama voters are going to the polls to decide whether they want to elect the #Trumple candidate or...GASP!!!! a DEMOCRAT!!!!! All I can say, is that with the moves toward voter suppression in black and Democratic districts, it is unclear if this will be a free and fair election. I only have one thing to say about this: If you have to cheat to win, it’s not really winning, is it?

But meanwhile, baby pandas are in peril! Let’s go to the next episode of…

101 Bebe Panda-Nations!

Inspector Panda has arrived! He’ll…um…solve everything!

And yes, we have used this joke before!

Be the Bear!

Pinky has called in reinforcements, knowing that she will be in big trouble if she doesn’t get her brother and all the rest of the baby pandas left in her charge, back from the evil Babette!

You shouldn’t have opened the door, Pinky!!!!!!!

This may be a job for...Inspector Panda!!!!

I hope everyone is enjoying their 31 Days of Pandas! I know that it’s helping to distract me from…um…stuff. Like the fall of civilization. I think I need a cuppycake.

Panda On!

Oh, this is getting so so SO scary! Almost flying monkey scary; almost Congress voting to take away our healthcare scary! Okay, nothing could be THAT scary, but still….

Things are getting real here!

When trouble arrives, it’s time to call for some MEIHEM!!!!!

Panda On!

Part 4: 101 Bebe Panda-Nations and day 3 of 31 Days of Pandas

7 Replies

The Internet may become the playground of the wealthy and the republicans may have already passed their most inhumane tax “reform” bill, so all I can do is keep drawing pandas until they drag me off to whatever subversive artist’s prisons they can devise.

But meanwhile, trouble is afoot, because where Babette steps her fashionable paws, chaos and infamy are sure to follow.

It’s time for the next episode of 101 Bebe Panda-Nations!!!

Uh oh.

Panda on T(till our last breath)

101 Bebe Panda-Nation part 3

Uh oh. The villain of the piece has arrived. Babette de Panda: international panda of mystery! (She may be French!) Fortunately, she was able to fit us into her busy schedule, because when there is evil that needs to be done, no one does it better than Babette! Get ready for the next episode of 101 Bebe Panda-Nation part 3!

Wait, Pinky! Don’t answer that door!

Babette can talk anyone into anything.

And in other news…the 2018 Pandamonium Convention of panda lovers is happening! If you think maybe you need to take a trip to Pan-Diego next spring, why not make it in the company of 59 other panda fans? The plans are made, the dates are set…if you are thinking that this might be fun, check out the Convention Facebook page here.

If this tickles your panda fancy, email the address listed on the image or contact me via the contact form and I’ll send you to the right place.

In honor of the upcoming convention festivities, all of my 31 days of pandas extra posts will be from the collected ‘toons about the Wu Self, famed resident of the San Diego Zoo!

Or you could, you know, get your own copy of Book 4 of The Panda Chronicles: The Book of Wu.

101 Bebe Panda-Nation Episode 2

I loved that classic 101 Dalmatians, but the lead villain, Cruella deVille was just way too scary. I hope you agree that Babette is a much more cuddly and adorable villain. She has taken a little time off from her very important role in The Pandyland Mysteries series (still waiting for it’s forever home!) to join in for this holiday fun!

And now, on with the show!

How many times do we have to tell you, DON’T ANSWER THE DOOR!!!!!

A New Feature Story for 31 Days of Pandas

8 Replies

Yes, that’s right! We are approaching 31 Days of Pandas, a Panda Chronicles tradition since…um..well, I can’t remember when I started it. As with recent years past, I have a bit too much on my plate to bring you a new ‘toon every day, but just think of it as Fabulous Furry Friday EVERYDAY!!!!

I’ll still be posting new ‘toons on Sunday and Wednesday, as per usual, but on other days, I will share some of my favorites from the archives, and I think many of them are appropriate to the season. And who knows. I may be able to pop out an extra new ‘toon to two here and there.

There are so many new readers who haven’t yet become ~~inundated~~ acquainted with all the characters and story lines, so this is a good chance for you to catch up! It’s also a good time to remind you that Panda Chronicles books make the best Holiday presents!

But without further ado, here is the introduction and first installment of our newest feature presentation, the worldwide intergalactic third house from the corner premiere of: 101 BeBe Panda-Nation!

Wait…who did you say is the star?

Panda On!

BTW, you may have been hearing all this stuff about Net Neutrality and how it might go away. WTF is that, you might ask? Net Neutrality helps to ensure that little guys (like me) have as much access to the cyber waves as folks like…say…Facebook. If you think a level playing field is a GOOD thing, consider dropping your representative in Congress and the chairman of the FCC a line and tell them so.

Echoes of Comics History

5 Replies

As I was working on the last couple of installments of The Panda Chronicles, I had a little bit of a revelation. I’ve talked before about being influenced by several of the great well known, as well as the not so well known, cartoonists who have come before me. One of my favorites growing up was definitely Peanuts. The Sunday comics were the first thing I would read when the paper arrived, and I loved nothing better than Peanuts.

So, today’s ‘toon is a tribute: to Linus and Lucy Van Pelt, and their relationship, which gave me so much inspiration as I developed Pinky and Bubba’s personalities and interaction.

Maybe some day The Panda Chronicles will make comics history

Maybe Bubba is having a Halloween SEASON! Did you ever think of THAT, Pinky?

Panda On!
Thanks, Sparky!

The NSA Has Nothing on Pinky!

4 Replies

Remember when we were all freaked out about the news that the NSA was monitoring our phone calls and internet communications? Yeah…those seem like the good times now! Sad! But as Bubba is soon to find out, that the NSA is a piker when compared to the surveillance capabilities of Princess Pinky! And now she has gone ~~undercover~~ off camera as she has her crew of decorators comes in to give her quarters in Dujiangyan a little updating and sprucing up.

So she says!

There is no telling what Pinky is getting up to and no one knows that better than her adorable and easily manipulated little brother, Bubba. As I was drawing the next ‘toon, I realized that they are inspired, in large part, by none other than Lucy and Linus Van pelt, of Peanuts fame! Am I wrong? But in the meantime, remember….

Pinky knows where you live!!!!

Did you want to rephrase that last statement?

BTW, I have been given permission to post this notice about next years Panda Convention in PanDiego California! Final details are still be worked out as to pricing, but we wanted you to have the opportunity to save the date just in case you might could be in the vicinity of the Pandiego Zoo in early March of 2018!

See Mr. Wu!
Talk about pandas!
Hang out with other panda loving folks!
Rumor has it, Bob T Will be there!
