Hmmmm….
Continue reading “Birds of a Feather”I’m busy with family right now, literally burning money in the most beautiful and sparkly way ever. And I hope all of you also have fun things planned for Independence Day.
Due to the two weeks of recycled Lisa’s Story regurgitation we were subjected to the last week, I wanted to remind myself why I sometimes found Crankshaft good. I decided to pull up a quick vertical slice of 20 years of Crankshaft’s 4th of July strips. Some are festive, some are fun, some are nonsensical, and some are just dumb. But seen as a whole, the downward trajectory is clear. Let me know which of these, if any you find funny/infuriating.
Love you all!
(Sundays for the first several years weren’t available, so that’s why some years are skipped. )

And the winner of the Crankshaft punchline contest is….
Duck of Death with “God damn that bitch! I ordered stones!”
Ducky! Please come up to accept your prize! I know it’s half-assed and terrible looking. But so is Crankshaft these days.

I had a different goal on these parodies. Instead of recontextualizing the entire strip I just changed one word bubble to write a new punchline.
Can you come up with more interesting and funny punchlines to these setups? The winner will get awful photoshop art in their honor!

SO, (heh heh,) CBH is tagging in, and we’re back in Crankshaft, back in the McKenzie’s attic, and back in the glorious year of 2007, (for now.)
Eric ‘Mooch’ Myers is gushing about some 60-year-old comic books with more passion and devotion than we could ever expect him to show a lover.
And, for whatever reason, yes we are STILL in the attic.
