I’ll admit I’ve never read any of the Twilight books. Would Nerd be a fan? It seems like it’s really just a romance with some supernatural elements, something I don’t think he’d be into. Harry Potter on the other hand as all kinds of fun ways to geek out. Though I did find the last movie pretty disappointing: where was the big fight scene at the end where Bill got mauled and the kids used the lucky juice?? I was waiting through the whole movie for it since the fight at the end of the previous movie was great!
The books are always better.
Today’s vote incentive is more practice with turn arounds: Katrina (an old character I’ve done nothing else with unfortunately)
SITE UPDATE: I’m slowly getting around to adding some new stuff to the site, first up is a page with details on our commission rates and options. If you’d like an original Bear Nuts sketch, or a custom bear of your own, or some other art done you can go here for more info. I’m also working on a fan art page next. I’ve collected a few awesome pieces already and I hope to have that up for next Monday’s update

Credit card fraud! I knew it!
December 7th, 2009 at 12:10 am
I don’t think Nerd would be into Twilight. Gay on the other hand…=D
No offense to Twilight fans…
December 7th, 2009 at 12:14 am
2nd.
December 7th, 2009 at 12:15 am
makes you wonder why death is even with these guys
December 7th, 2009 at 12:23 am
Srsly, srsly, no. Nerd would not like Twilight, at aaaaaall. There are NO geek-out availabilities in that fandom, unless you were an anti-fan. Actually…xD I can see him ranting about the sparkly vampires way more then him being nuetral in the ‘great debate.’
December 7th, 2009 at 12:30 am
Greatings from Cape Town, South Africa!
I love the comic. I alwase read it every monday morning at 7:00 (I guess its midnight in Canada)
Yay credit card fraud! The Nigerians are prety good at it too!
December 7th, 2009 at 12:38 am
please, i beg of you, Nerd doesn’t need Twilight in his life. Let him be carefree in his ignorance.
December 7th, 2009 at 12:43 am
No, nerd is male, he wouldn’t really enjoy twilight. Gay could however… that would be funny.
December 7th, 2009 at 1:10 am
Oops, typo. I think you meant to have him say “ordered it”
December 7th, 2009 at 1:16 am
AH! My friends and I were wondering what happened to that fight as well! Yea I can totally see Nerd being a HP fan
December 7th, 2009 at 1:24 am
The zoo pen cleaners have a crazy credit bill.
December 7th, 2009 at 1:48 am
hahaha, fraud
Oh, and I have regretably read part of twilight and even more regretably seen the movie. So self respecting Nerd Bear would read or watch it lol trust me. It’s not good. Looking forward to seeing the new updates, yay fanart page!
December 7th, 2009 at 2:01 am
Nooo, Nerd would not be a Twilight fan. While also mainstream, Harry Potter has an intellectual basis with complexities and real-world allegories that strongly appeal to the world of geekdom. Not only does Twilight have no legitimate research behind it, it actively numbs functioning brain cells. No nerd wants to lower their intellect.
December 7th, 2009 at 2:16 am
Groovy comic, as always. And um, just what I personally was told about the latest HP movie? They apparently left out that fight scene because it would detract from the REALLY HUGE END-IT-ALL fight in the last one. **Shrugs** I thought it was important enough to leave in, but what do I know? Lol. And the Twilight books are..a bit cheesy, yeah. But the second ((New Moon)) and third ((Eclipse)) have some wicked fight scenes and some intense love-triangle drama stuff goin on. Mmkay, Sin’s shutting up now! ^.^
December 7th, 2009 at 2:24 am
i do not believe geek bear would have anything to do with twilight but on the other hand what if geek bear had a lord of the rings party with some other animals that he invited in the the cave whith out prozac knowing haha
December 7th, 2009 at 2:36 am
Twilight is just drivel for pre-teens, no self-respecting nerd would be a fan >:P especially not a male one.
December 7th, 2009 at 3:00 am
It’s true; Nerd would be shaming his very name if he called himself a Twilight fan. It’s horrible writing, cliche plot and blank, personality-dead characters- and I like to think that since he likes Harry Potter, he has better standards than that.
He’d probably be a rabid anti-fan like the rest of us. 8D
December 7th, 2009 at 3:39 am
That’s him! Officer! He’s the one that stole my money order and “white washed” it!
December 7th, 2009 at 3:49 am
Probably got his scar online too
December 7th, 2009 at 3:58 am
Hi, I hope everything is OK for the child and the happy parents !
I love this page, it gives to Nerd some thickness. And that’s quite an introduction to some pages about Death.
December 7th, 2009 at 4:18 am
Stumbled coincidentally over those yesterday:

December 7th, 2009 at 5:07 am
The Twilight series was alright… Excellent if you like romance novels but not something I think Nerd would be into at all, just not really a nerdy series…
December 7th, 2009 at 7:37 am
Hehee… “Credit card… fraud.” Nerd is so cute.
And no, Twilight is poorly written “drivel” as someone above stated. Weak, boring characters, a mockery of real vampires and werewolves, and one creepy emotionally abusive relationship. ._. Definitely not nerd worthy.
December 7th, 2009 at 7:52 am
But it’s not stealing if someone’s paying for it.
December 7th, 2009 at 9:16 am
I rant a lot about Twilight, and Nerd and I connect in a few ways.
If you bring up Twilight with Nerd, let gay introduce him to it, and have him rant about how she completely ignored all folklore about vampires and/or the psychology of a man who served under Napoleon and was granted immortality.
Nerd would be outraged over it, Gay would be protective of it.
It’d be a good debate.
December 7th, 2009 at 10:00 am
If anything, I think Nerd would be very vocal about how awful Twilight is, but I agree that Gay would probably enjoy it.
What I think would be funny, is if Nerd were a Buffy fan and Gay were a Twilight fan. That would spark some interesting debates ^^
December 7th, 2009 at 10:01 am
I don’t think this comic needs the 3vil of twilight introduced into it; and I also don’t think Geek would like it, for all the reasons previously posted. Gay having a crush on Eddy on the other hand… would be frakkin hillarious
December 7th, 2009 at 10:08 am
*twitch* I’m a girl nerd who has read the book. I shudder at Twilight, and not in the good shuddering way. It is poorly written with characters I really cannot connect with or even like. I can’t see Nerd liking it.
December 7th, 2009 at 10:18 am
Books are ALWAYS better than the movie, cause they don’t leave out the juicey bits. Its why I don’t watch many movies that aren’t an original and based off a book, game or tv (if you’ve seen Dragonball Evolution, then you KNOW what I’m talking about!).
Very rare for a book to become a good movie. I’m still waiting for Twilight to fade before I read. I hate being part of a crowd
December 7th, 2009 at 10:25 am
Okay so no Twilight!! lol
I am a huge Buffy/Angel fan though, I can’t really see anything vampiric topping that (though Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt AND Antoinio Banderas all as vampires in the same movie was the best thing ever when I was a teenager… ah memories…pre-Scientology.)
I’d love to have a Nerd on Gay debate about the merits of the two fandoms but then I’d have to research Twilight a little and I just don’t have the time, or the will.
@ Dan: greetings from Canada! I love the confusion of time zones.
@ Greensleeves: I was trying to convey ordering plural items, my grammar skills are escaping me on which is correct!
@ Faolnagael: I know! It’s like the cut a chunk of the action (adding in that weird corn field scene) for more teen romance… yay.
@ Mickel: lol
@ Johnny: nice, though I’m sure Evil would give him a real one if he asked!
@ Saddust: thanks! we’re all still alive
@ bastardo: those are cool! I want Bear Nuts figurines!!
@ Rawrimaducky: my husband’s visa just got re-issued because apparently we went shopping in Spain and didn’t know it!
December 7th, 2009 at 10:37 am
aww.. let him do that.. <:B any fraud that is produced of bears deserves to go on. xD
December 7th, 2009 at 11:25 am
I just love Prozac’s faces in this one. And Nerd… so cute.
December 7th, 2009 at 1:05 pm
Love all of the unspoken panels! Telling the story with expressions is something you really excel at Alison.
Love Nerd’s face in panel 9.
December 7th, 2009 at 1:11 pm
@Greensleeves: actually the grammar in panel 4 is correct. Basically, Prozac was asking, “Where do you [get this kind of stuff]?” so a response of “I order it online” is appropriate.
December 7th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
o_o I can’t see Nerd liking Twilight. At all.
God no.
It’s 95% romance with a little bit of action.
Harry Potter on the other hand, totally works.
And I agree with some of the other posters- I can SO see Gay liking Twilight XD
December 7th, 2009 at 4:58 pm
Gay LIKES almost anything and true Nerd wouldn’t like Twilight I do though
December 7th, 2009 at 6:09 pm
OMG NO!!!! Please don’t put twilight in this comic
that would be soooooo sad they’re such horrible books and pretty damn terrible movies! Please please please please please please please please please no tiwlight =(
December 7th, 2009 at 6:12 pm
Sooo… if the zoo officials come in and catch a bear with Harry Potter merch–that’s a bigger deal than catching a bear sitting on a couch watching TV?
Then again, accepting the premise of brightly-coloured anthropomorphic bears…
December 7th, 2009 at 6:24 pm
Nicole is right…He didn’t ask “where did you get it?” but “where do you get it? …… it’s a matter of making the verb tenses match up…
December 7th, 2009 at 8:46 pm
Is death a male bear? Just wondering because its obvious who is male in the bunch but Death doesn’t show much that he is actually a male. It’d be quite a shock if it turned out he was actually a she.
December 8th, 2009 at 8:15 am
Until very recently I worked in collections, and you want to know the strange thing about Credit Card Fraud? If Geek set up a card under a false name, and then somehow made sure it got paid off every month, or at least on a regular basis. Then the credit card companies mostly don’t care, and the government considers it ‘victimless crime’. However if he did NOT pay it off its a serious felony, usually handled by F.B.I. or N.S.A. special investigators.
Your tax Dollars at work…
December 8th, 2009 at 8:19 am
Er sorry, I meant Nerd. Geek and Nerd are fairly interchangeable words to me.
December 8th, 2009 at 12:10 pm
Twilight was awful, I agree with the person who said Gay Bear might be more likely to be a fan. Though even Gay might think it’s too stupid.
December 8th, 2009 at 12:16 pm
Oh and I could see Gay bear being all “Angel <3″
I’m a Buffy fan too, I’d see Nerd liking stuff more along the lines of Harry Potter and Dragon stuff over Vampires.
December 8th, 2009 at 1:27 pm
Oh w/e Bear Nuts pwns and Delakando do you play bvs?
December 8th, 2009 at 2:09 pm
Yay Nerd!!! My favorite character.
December 8th, 2009 at 3:38 pm
Hmm…aren’t all the bears male?
December 9th, 2009 at 3:50 am
the creditcard fraud was one of the things i don’t expect from nerd.
but it sure is kinda stupid to do.
December 9th, 2009 at 12:37 pm
Well how else is Nerd supposed to get his cool contraband?
December 9th, 2009 at 1:00 pm
i though he brought it on the zoo’s name
December 9th, 2009 at 1:13 pm
@GAH O_o - Yes I do play BvS and that would be me under Delakando. It’d also be me under WoW.
I wonder if Geek/Nerd Bear would play WoW.. That’d be interesting! I’d be stalking him to piss him off >:)
December 9th, 2009 at 1:14 pm
Delakando the new violent stalker bear!
December 9th, 2009 at 1:48 pm
I think Nerd should play Warhammer fantasy. Its a table top game with little figurines that you paint up and move strategically around and is way geekier then playing anything else, some will argue that magic is awesome but its there for people who wish they were hardcore. to learn more… http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/globalLanding.jsp?gotoGWSPage=http%3A//www.games-workshop.com/gws//home.jsp%3F_requestid%3D72115
December 9th, 2009 at 2:44 pm
Actually, since Prozac asked Nerd “Where do you… GET this…” Nerd was correct in answering with “I ORDER…” if he had used ordered, it would have been a tense disagreement and then been prescriptivly and descriptivly wrong gammar-wise
December 9th, 2009 at 8:32 pm
Gay should be a fan of Twilight. It’s so right up his alley. Oooh! Sparkly, perfect vampire boys!!
December 10th, 2009 at 11:51 am
I can see Gay enjoying Twilight, but not Nerd. Myself, I found the books entertaining, though I had to learn to tune out the constant references to how beautiful Edward was. Over and over and over and over again. Other than that, t’was a good tale to follow.
December 10th, 2009 at 2:30 pm
i totally see gay getting into twilight! that would be hilarious!
December 10th, 2009 at 5:34 pm
Gay would love Twilight, definitely.
And Nerd would just as definitely hate Twilight.
December 10th, 2009 at 7:55 pm
Bad Nerd! No fandoms for you!
December 12th, 2009 at 1:03 pm
Lol! That would be interesting to see; a fandom duel between Nerd and Gay. And I must agree with you, the latest movie kinda sucked D8 It made me cry inside XD
December 14th, 2009 at 11:51 am
Delakando I think you mean new bear stalker… and I play under White Wing and Jet Li in BVS so I know you know me!!!! so hows the village? I use school internet so bvs blocked now -.-
