Playbear

Playbear, a three-issue series from Fantagraphics begun in 1995, is a compact, offbeat entry in the publisher's celebrated alternative-comics catalog. Created by an artist known for a distinctly surreal and deadpan style, the series follows a silent, bear-headed protagonist through a series of quietly absurd, wordless vignettes. Its brief run is a cult touchstone for fans of the era's more experimental, atmospheric storytelling.
