Everyone looks at me funny when I say this but I can’t stand coffee: the smell, the taste, not even the sugary cafe drinks. But I do like Coffee Crisp…
If you missed last week here’s the vote incentive aftermath to the Christmas card:

I had so much fun with these sketches I drew a part 3: today’s vote incentive is the aftermath of the aftermath ![]()

Death… and coffee. Bad combination? I believe so.
I can only wait excitedly for what you have in store… XDDD
January 4th, 2010 at 12:31 am
Oh god, is Death Bear on caffeine rush?
January 4th, 2010 at 12:40 am
I’d feel like that too after, from what I can tell, 10 cups of coffee.
January 4th, 2010 at 12:44 am
OMG. My 2 favorite things: Death Bear and Coffee! This one is great. Happy 2KX
January 4th, 2010 at 1:15 am
Don’t worry, I won’t look at you funny. I’m from a coffee addicted family and I REALLY have to be in the mood for coffee to even bring myself to order a frappuccino (or other coffee house equivalent) and even then I only ever finish maybe half of it. I’m more of a coke/pepsi/dr. pepper girl myself when it comes to my caffeine cravings.
January 4th, 2010 at 1:33 am
HAHAHA XDD I Loved the two comics x3! nice nice nice (Y)
January 4th, 2010 at 2:01 am
yay… this episode… DEATH BEAR GOES ON A RAMPAAAGE >:D
January 4th, 2010 at 2:06 am
I love the smell of coffee only, never drink it. But oh boy, the only thing worse than Death on caffeine is Evil on caffeine
January 4th, 2010 at 2:07 am
Yes, you are my fave totally twisted cartoonist. The mere element of your reaction to coffee marks you. Hee, hee, hee.
January 4th, 2010 at 2:09 am
I also hate coffee and everything about it, but love coffee crisp. glad i’m not alone in this anymore
January 4th, 2010 at 3:35 am
Omg, the incentives are too cute! I love it especially when Prozac goes all crazy like that. xD
Hrm… wonder what Death Bear will do next? Become the next Tanked or Cracked? J/K xP
January 4th, 2010 at 5:40 am
Yeah, 7th!!! It’s my lucky number.
I was a little bit like Death: I couldn’t stand the coffee, but I had to drink it because I couldn’t sleep normally for 3 years, and I always felt sleepy at morning.
But I like it now.
January 4th, 2010 at 5:49 am
I’m with you on the Coffee bit, can’t stand either the smell or taste of it. I find myself to be more a chai type of guy.
January 4th, 2010 at 6:56 am
Hello, I hope I’m not late to wish a good 2010 (better than 2009 if possible) to the li’l family and all the readers (^v^) Greetings from France.
@D4rkLigh7 : Death drank at least 8 coffee cups, it seems
January 4th, 2010 at 7:04 am
After read this, the less that I can think is…
? All night long! (All night) ? 8D
Happy New Year :B
January 4th, 2010 at 8:08 am
This will not end well, for anyone. But Sammy’s looking pretty cute ( though based off th epic a few pages back)
January 4th, 2010 at 8:13 am
I HATE coffee as well, the smell itselfs makes me sick.
“Death on caffeine”, huh. Has an interesting ring to it, certainly didn’t see that one coming.
January 4th, 2010 at 9:09 am
The only thing for certain in life is Death and Taxes–now with extra foam! XD
January 4th, 2010 at 9:59 am
oh dear god its the freaking apocalypse! Death thats been caffeinated will likely go around slaughtering everyone or get hooked like a drug.
January 4th, 2010 at 10:39 am
!!!Love panels 7-9!!!
Why does coffee smell so good but taste so bitter!
January 4th, 2010 at 11:21 am
It looks like death is missing a toe in the las panel. I just wanted to point that out =D
January 4th, 2010 at 12:47 pm
I think his foot is just angled away from us, Ch1pM0nkey.
Oh, Death, where is thy caffeine buzz? I love the smell of coffee, but rarely drink it. Just not my thing. Lordy, what will happen to Death?
And the vote incentive…*snarf*…perfect. I thought Tanked was given poo.
January 4th, 2010 at 1:43 pm
Uh-oh, this can’t be good. Death highped up on coffee…..*meep* I’m scared, lol
January 4th, 2010 at 3:11 pm
“Death of a Caffeine Rush” is sort of the opposite of “Death Takes a Holiday,” right? Of course, the only downside of this leading to the Apocalypse would be the strip would come to an end - and I don’t think any of us want THAT to happen.
January 4th, 2010 at 4:45 pm
Keith sort of beat me to the parody of “Death Takes a Holiday” - I just thought of “Death Takes a Coffee Break” was all
January 4th, 2010 at 7:27 pm
@Keith…end of the strip! BLASPHEMEH!!!! SHUN TEH BLASPHEMER!!!
January 4th, 2010 at 8:23 pm
I can totally understand you. I hate coffee as well
January 4th, 2010 at 10:00 pm
I actually can’t stand coffee. I tried some in sixth grade. Those DD commercials made iced coffee sound so good. I had no idea you had to add sugar! I never touched the stuff again. I do like coffee flavored chocolate and desserts oddly enough…
January 4th, 2010 at 10:05 pm
And so it begins… “The Night Of The Living Dead”
January 4th, 2010 at 10:25 pm
Coffee Enemas!
They’re for those who really hate the taste of coffee, but still want the jittery feelings!
January 4th, 2010 at 10:36 pm
I love coffee…. both drinking it and the way Jay suggested….
January 5th, 2010 at 1:39 am
Heh heh heh…I remember my first gourmet coffee…
January 5th, 2010 at 3:32 am
Is it just me or on the bottom 4th panel he has 4 toe’s?
January 5th, 2010 at 7:16 am
yay! Coffee is my favorite drug.
January 5th, 2010 at 4:08 pm
@Rook: I believe the three toes of his left foot are pushing up against the three toes of his right foot. So the right foot big toe gives the illusion that it is actually part of the left foot. But good visual catch! I had to really look at it.
January 5th, 2010 at 7:49 pm
Yeah…coffee will do that to you.
January 6th, 2010 at 7:50 am
I don’t mind coffee, but I always crash 5 minutes after drinking one freaking cup. NO THANKS!
January 6th, 2010 at 4:05 pm
I love your comic so much!! I hope I might become as good as you some day!
I have my own stash of characters myself!
January 6th, 2010 at 10:36 pm
Finally someone who understand my complete and total dislike of coffee. I don’t want it, it’s smell or favor anywhere near my food and drinks. Moreover people get more confused when I tell them I don’t like tea either. Once my friend forced me to try a tea that tasted like coffee had been pored into it- it’s safe to say it was the grossest thing I’ve ever drank.
As for the coffee and Death combo that I look forward to it completely. This will probably be very interesting indeed.
January 6th, 2010 at 10:52 pm
That looks like me after 1/2 a cup…
January 6th, 2010 at 10:54 pm
I <3 Coffee Crisp too! They’re a bear to find in the states, though…
January 7th, 2010 at 7:58 am
I love this comic, and i can’t stand the smell of coffee either. It’s sad to say, i even hate the smell of tea and the taste. The only thing i like about Coffee is the foam on some. I can’t wait for the next page!!
January 7th, 2010 at 11:17 am
hehehe im just like you with coffee, can’t stand the smell of it and the taste is even worse, and i even can’t kiss my boyfriend after he’s had a coffee so he’s given it up. But i have to try this coffee crisp
January 7th, 2010 at 3:16 pm
Eureka! FINALY someONE that understands! I’ve never had those Crisps but I can stomach copico candies when I’m craving sugar
as for caffeine pepsi is fine substitute for coffe
January 7th, 2010 at 4:23 pm
Why is it that nobody likes coffee?
January 7th, 2010 at 10:46 pm
Hi, this is my first visit to your webcomic and i read the whole she-bang in one long session!! It is 4:31 a.m. now O.O
I love it! And the funny thing is: i got here through a wikipedia-link on the wikipage of..the Carebears! hehehe. (
Noticed that Lech bear has hearts on his feetpaws too <3 )
I got all the names exept Gimp and Lech :i had to look them up in urban dictionary!!(not a native speaker hehe)
I would really like it if you would introduce a female character in their cave -even if just for a while- to see how the bears react.
PS Evil really looked so much like a kittycat in the origins of Evil. he always does a lil…^^
PPS You are VERY open about your own life online, pretty intimate stuff sometimes and the combination of pregnancy stories and cute baby-pictures combined with some of th evilness in the stories riiight above is sometimes.. pretty.. ” O.O “
January 8th, 2010 at 1:07 am
I work at a zoo in Australia; if our bears actually acted like this, there would be much hilarity– and not a few customer complaints.
Loving this, Death dominates!
January 8th, 2010 at 6:30 am
I don’t mind the smell so much - but it always tastes *burnt* to me. Not to mention that the caffeine would KO me in 5 minutes….
But my cause is a past Life memory. I got some bad news while having my (then usual) morning cup.
January 8th, 2010 at 4:08 pm
ah coffee, the blessed nectar of life… how i love you so (please note i can drink up to 20 a day)
January 8th, 2010 at 4:47 pm
@Saddust: Thanks for the New Year wishes, same to you!
But poo would be good too…

@Nicole: A rock
@Keith: I imagine the Apocalypse would have a few more downsides
@Jay: gross man
@Porst: ditto
@LOD: Thanks! It just takes practice… lots and lots and lots of practice.
@VeeVee: Wow, that must of taken awhile! Welcome to BN
@Bohemia: I’d love to work in a zoo!
@coffeeislikecrack: That sounds mighty healthy… How’s you heart?
January 8th, 2010 at 7:43 pm
to the boss:
i am mighty healthy, no heart complications for me, no way…
thank you for the concern though
January 9th, 2010 at 11:23 am
No good will come from this. Hilarious high jinks, though, I’m sure.
January 9th, 2010 at 4:48 pm
Don’t Drink Coffe ‘Neither, So, Your not Alone. :p
August 4th, 2010 at 11:21 pm
Coffee is for work and not for when you get up or to drink at home but that is just me
August 11th, 2010 at 12:06 am
Oh sh*t… Here we go again! I don’t drink coffee, but I’ve seen the effects of that much, and for a first timer? Hoo boy…
September 17th, 2010 at 1:10 am
My First time having coffee was like that, too….but I drank more…..now i can’t start thinking untill i at least smell it, even thou i’m more of a tea guy myself.
Just a thought, for those of you who do like coffee, what do you put in it. I hate the cream (I was brought up on 1% and skim milk), so I add in enough sugar to kill a horse….
September 20th, 2010 at 7:30 pm
As the image was loading and I saw the first three panels, I started thinking of that song by OK GO: “Aw, here it goes, here it goes, here it goes again…” This can only end hilareously. XD
As for the Christmas Aftermath image, I can’t help but think Prozac is making that face because of Evil’s lack of creativity. “Seriously, Evil. A goose? We’ve already done that phobia of his to death! And Nerd’s just explodes? Lame. At least the Peanuts reference was nice, but that seems more like last-minute creativity to me.” >:P
November 5th, 2010 at 3:30 pm
I don’t like Coffee either!
December 5th, 2010 at 2:16 pm
OH CRAP OH CRAP OH CRAP
December 5th, 2010 at 2:16 pm
‘Gourmet’ also implies ESPRESSO
December 14th, 2010 at 8:46 pm
Lol @ panels 6 thru 9. Those panels remind me of a scene in Open Season. Elliot (the buck) finds some coffee, and even though it tastes disgusting, he still likes it cuz somehow it’s addictive. XD Same thing with Death I suppose. I adore Death’s face. <3
December 14th, 2010 at 8:48 pm
I’m also the same way with coffee.
I can’t stand the smell or taste. I use to like the smell, but not anymore :/
December 11th, 2011 at 6:25 am
This obviously isn’t going to bode well…
