Bedtime Bear

Bedtime Bear is one of the Care Bears, a pastel-colored bear whose special role is helping children relax and fall asleep. Debuting in Marvel's Star Comics imprint, Bedtime Bear uses warmth and comfort to chase away nighttime worries alongside fellow Care Bears.

Few characters embody pure, cozy comfort quite like Bedtime Bear, who made their debut in the very first issue of Marvel's Care Bears in 1985, brought to life by the talented Howard Post during the final stretch of the Bronze Age. Published under Marvel's charming Star Comics imprint, this sleepy little bear spent the late '80s sharing pages with beloved companions like Grumpy Bear, Funshine Bear, and Tenderheart Bear, making Care Bears and Star Comics Magazine essential reading for a generation of young fans. With 13 catalog appearances across a run that lasted through 1989, Bedtime Bear may be a compact presence in comics history, but for collectors with a soft spot for the warmth and whimsy that defined Marvel's all-ages output of the era, that's a treasure worth tucking in with.
