Shirtless Bear Fighter

A 2018 one-shot from Bragelonne, Shirtless Bear Fighter is a gleefully absurd action-comedy in which a man raised by bears—and who fights them, shirtless, with his bare hands—defends a forest from a sinister lumber corporation. Artist Paolo Rivera brings a dynamic, detailed clarity to the over-the-top brawls and deadpan humor. It matters as a perfect, self-contained dose of pure, unpretentious fun that leans hard into its ridiculous premise.
