It’s Time for a Holiday Classic!

I’m afraid once again, I have failed to finish the ‘toon planned for today on time (where DOES the time go?) so instead, we will have a re-broadcast, an Encore Presentation, if you will, of one of my favorite Holiday Classics!

It’s a WUnderful Life!

Starring the one, the only, the magnificent, Mr. Wu!

Thank goodness Bee the Bear still has her magical wand from the last adventure.
Wu is a good bear at heart….
Bee the bear tells it like it is
What part of “you don’t exist” didn’t you get? Ha ha! I love that line!
You won’t like this, Mr Wu!
Those darn cats!
Repeat after me, “It’s a story” ‘kay?
Everytime a bell rings, a panda gets a cuppycake.
Yay! The heartwarming schmoopy ending!
A bear and his mom…together forever?

I hope you enjoyed this Encore Presentation of It’s a WUnderful Life as much as I did! Stay ‘tooned next week for our regularly scheduled ‘toon plus more holiday classics!

Day 10 ~ 31 Days of Pandas

It’s a WUnderful Life: the finale!

We hope you are enjoying this encore presentation of It’s a WUnderful Life! This story (and many other stories about Mr. Wu) can be found in Book 4 of the panda Chronicles: The Book of Wu!

I’m pretty sure something is coming up next, I have to find my list where I actually figured out what I had planned. Good thong I posted yesterday and today’s ‘toons ahead, since we had (yet another) power outage that lasted all day. Weather can be so tedious!

But now, on with the show!

Day 6 ~ 31 Days of Pandas

It’s a WUnderful Life!

Today starts our Holiday Encore Presentation of It’s a WUnderful Life, which explores the existential question, pondered by Jimmy Stewart’s character in a complete rip-off of this version: what would the world be like if there were no more baby pandas?

Or something like that!

To Bee or Not to Bee

Recently I’ve begun to invite friends of the Panda Chronicles to request specific encore presentations for my regular Sunday offering. This week, by request, I’m highlighting Bee the Bear!

I had to think for a minute about how Bee (the Bear) came into bee-ing! It all came rushing back, when I remembered that when I did my 2nd Kickstarter campaign to publish my first collection of ‘toons in printed form, a friendly bee-keeper here on Whidbey offered some local honey as an extra incentive to contribute to my campaign.

Of course I had to design a label!

Bee, the Bear; my original drawing.

Later I revised her a little bit:

Beeeeeeeee!

and also…

cheerful
Bee-lieve!

When Mr. Wu came along, Bee (the Bear) appeared in many of Mr. Wu’s adventures, including the story when he ran off with the panda kindergarten and joined the circus, The Wizard of Wu, and It’s a Wunderful Life!

Okay, now it’s getting exciting! Scary parts dead ahead!

What part of “you don’t exist” didn’t you get? Ha ha! I love that line!

And while we’re on the subject, (what subject was that?) It’s almost birthday month for Mr. Wu, and the Meihem twins, so the Sundays of July will be filled with encore presentations with Mr. Wu and the Meihems! (Pinky Junior shares [NOT DAT WORDS!!!!] her birthday [July 29th] with The Wu Self!) The wizard of Wu always has an encore presentation in October and it’s a Wonderful Life, during the Christmas holiday season. I’ll reprise Mr. Wu’s entire circus adventure during his birthday month!

August, of course, will be full of the House of the Xiang-Tian clan! Definitely something to look forward to!

I hope you enjoyed this visit with Bee (the Bear)!

Be(e) the Bear!
