Crankshaft by Tom Batiuk and Dan Davis for April 02, 2023

Well that’s new. I wasn’t expecting the story to continue into the Sunday strip

Mitch sure had a growth spurt.

Matrix Mummy?

?

Well, there it is. The first Sunday cover featured in Crankshaft. It only took three months. At least it’s not sideways.

Looks like Rob Ro et al. have been replaced by three-year-old Mitch Murdoch. What a prodigy!

Are we supposed to be impressed?

It is a nice drawing.

Thank GOD! The legacy continues!

Well, we’ve been asking for art that wasn’t traced or copy-pasted from old “Crankshaft” and “Funky” strips…

“The comics market is really hot right now! Some of these issues are worth several hundred dollars! I’ll give you… $50 for the whole lot!”

You can tell he’s a natural-born artist by the way he pokes out his tongue and holds the paper at a 30 degree angle off the table as he draws!

Don’t call it Crankshaft if he isn’t in it?

Could someone please explain the cover for me? Thank you.

im starting to like sydney and his hat better then crankshaft

“Unfortunately, what you have here is all junk that nobody’s going to want and it’s water and smoke damaged. Here’s your six bucks.”

The comics market is hot right now, but is it hot for slightly damp comics with an aroma of smoke to them? I’m guessing his collection could bring in upwards of single digits.

Slenderman??

Derp.
