This hipster pear is from a new mini-comic:

New Stationpeary!
I’ve recently added some new cards in the Angry Pear shop (and they aren’t even pears). I just got them from the printer last week, and I am so happy with how they turned out.
A cute owl Valentine, featuring “Claude,” who has only made one appearance in Angry Pear so far:

Looking Back: Halloween 2
In past years, I’ve really enjoyed making Halloween-themed pear illustrations and comics. Here are some more:
An Appearition!
Bad costume choice.
Pear Semetary
The Exorpear: “The power of pear compels you!”
Mummy Pear
Doctor Frankenpear and his Monster
Looking Back: Halloween! 1
I’m starting to get into the Halloween spirit. Here are some of my favorite Halloween pears from past years:
“What kind of trick is this!?”
Pear dressed as an apple. Not much scarier than that!
“There’s no such thing as Vampears. They don’t exist.”
I made some special Halloween themed pins– ghosts and vampears! You can get them at the Angry Pear Etsy Shop.

Last Days of the Balcony
It’s getting just a bit too cold to sit out on the balcony and enjoy oneself. I did, however, get a lot of use and enjoyment out of it this summer (most of the time).
Some pictures of the pears (and owls) on my balcony:
Pear-shaped owl.
Capton Contest – finalists!
Last week, I posted a pear picture and asked readers to caption it. All of the captions were hilarious, but there can only be one winner! It was hard for me to pick, but I’ve narrowed it down to four, now it’s up to you to pick the favorite!
Use this poll (I’ve add the option to add a completely different choice, in case you completely disagree with my finalists):
Thanks for playing everyone! I’ll announce the winner this weekend!
Caption Contest! (with prizes!)
Over the last few months, the comments on Angry Pear have been really funny– full of great puns and cleverness. I have enjoyed reading them and found them to be a great source of inspearation for new drawings. So I’m putting it to you, readers of Angry Pear, to caption this:
How it works:
Leave your caption in the comments. I’ll give you until Sunday night to think about it. I’ll post my favorite three or four and then let you all decide who wins.
And what will they win??? Well, the winner will receive the choice of either a set of pear pins, a chapbook / mini-comic book, or two cards!
Please pearticipate!
I hope to have this every month or so, if you don’t win this time, there will be another chance in the future.

Returning from Vacation
The Beach: Morning vs. Afternoon
Looking Back: Vacation (Part 2)
My vacation is almost over, but before I return to the real world, I thought I would share a few more of my favorite vacation comics from years past. Click on the links to see the full posts.
Sand pear!
I’ll be posting new vacation comics next week!
(This happened to me last summer. Not one of my happier memories of that vacation!)
Looking Back: Vacation (Part 1)
This pear is going on vacation for the next two weeks! Finally! I won’t be posting much while I’m gone, so I thought I’d leave you with a compilation of some of my favorite past comics about vacation. This is part one. Part two will come later. Maybe next week sometime.
Click on the links to see the full comic. Some are single panel and others are multiple images.
(That will be me with the beach ball in a few days.)
(I hope the second part of this one doesn’t happen to me this time!)
