Today, AIPT can share an exclusive preview for That Sexy Bear!, a new Kickstarter now live and available to back. It’s a new campy graphic novel filled to the brim with metatextual humor.
The book, which will be crowdfunded on Kickstarter by Spike Trotman’s Iron Circus Comics, is a satirical graphic novel about two bears in Cascadia Falls National Park who become the unwitting faces of an advertising campaign for a product polluting their home.
Check out the preview and synopsis below!
Welcome to beautiful and scenic Cascadia Falls National Park! Commodified, gentrified, consumerized, and digitized, the Elysian environs of 21st-century Cascadia is now just more Content©™… and so are its hopelessly-acclimatized-to-tourists bears, Ginger and Yaya. Involuntary beer mascots and social media stars, they’ve forgotten how to bear entirely, much to the frustration and chagrin of their park ranger caretakers, Eggs and Ricardo. But things are getting weird now, even for Cascadia. The exploitation’s been kicked up a notch, with a mysterious SUV and colonizing copycat among the new crop of troubles threatening the park! Can bear and ranger, hand-in-paw, push back against the invasion? Or are they as doomed to digestion for digital gain as the rest of us?
