CBH at the helm for this one. And FIRST OF ALL.
We’ve reached the maximum busy season for farm work here in CBHville. Where we are trying to simultaneously finish planting beans, chop rye hay, spray weeds, apply fertilizer, care for cows, AND (most daunting of all) clean my parent’s basement for my sister’s family to arrive for Memorial Day.
I was feeling overwhelmed.

THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL POST.
PLEASE DO NOT TAKE THIS BIT OF NONSENSE AS CBH MAKING ANY KIND OF POLITICAL STATEMENT.
THE BRAIN WORMS MADE ME DO IT.
BATIUK SET THIS IN MOTION.
I ONLY GAVE LIFE TO WHAT HE SPIRITUALLY CONCIEVED.
DO NOT ARGUE ABOUT POLITICS HERE.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ARGUE ABOUT WHAT DID OR DIDN’T OR SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED ON JANUARY 6, 2021, PLEASE GO TO GO COMICS. THERE IS A HOT SPICY THREAD JUST WAITING FOR YOU.
(If you would like to discuss how tone deaf, baffling, and awkward Friday’s Crankshaft was, you can stay.)

Thought I’d give you guys a little bonus treat between John posts.
When I got The Complete Funky Winkerbean Volume 8, I took the time to read the lengthy introduction by Batiuk. Most of these have been reprinted in the form of the ‘Match to Flame’ blog posts over at Tom’s site. Included in the introductions were these cute little Christmas cards.
Last but not least, sometime after moving Crankshaft to Universal Press Syndicate we started sending out Christmas cards to all of the Crankshaft and Funky Winkerbean features editors at our client papers. I thought you might like to see what only editors have seen before, so we’re including the cards for the years included in this volume—I think. I never put any dates on the cards, thinking that they would come in handy if they were ever included in a collection such as this (again, who does that?). I’ve tried to order them to the best of my recollection, and, unless you’re a newspaper editor who got one, you’ll never know anyway.
Introduction to The Complete Funky Winkerbean Volume 8.
But I saw something in those cards that just had me hysterically laughing. I cannot believe this is printed in The Complete Funky Winkerbean volumes, the books that are supposed to be the background, true, inside scoop on all things Funkyverse.
So…a fun group activity!
What is wrong with this picture?
(I swear on my 25th Anniversarry Funky Winkerbean T-Shirt. I have not altered these in any way. Check here if you don’t believe me.)
How about this one?
Unless you’re a newspaper editor…you’ll never know anyway.
