Crankshaft by Tom Batiuk and Dan Davis for October 13, 2023

Hey, look, Rocky found his own shirt! Good for you, Rocky!

In the meantime, how nice to learn that, along with being a lousy coffee maker, a lousy baker, a lousy bowler, and someone who never listens to others about her shortcomings and extorts employees so she can continue to be a drag on the bowling team, Lena is also a cheapskate who can’t spring for four beers.

Also, it should be “little boys’ room,” unless Ed is referring to one little boy in particular. I hope not.

Chinbeard smiles like some good is about to come of this.

Why does the fifth day of this arc feel like the fifth month?

HIS Eagle Will Soon Soar Again! One Nation Under GOD! GOD Bless America!

Cheap…. Skate…

Timing is everything.

I was going to ask “where’s the joke”, but it’s supposed to be that she only has to buy one beer if they’re in the bathroom? That’s not how it works. That’s not how any of this works.

Seriously, what adult man calls it the little boys room? Once again Bathack tries for clever and ends up with sad.

Lena: Bottoms up!

(one beer later)

(Andy looks like he’s gonna faint, Rocky vomits on himself, Lena is still sober, Crankshaft tries to start a fistfight with Max Alerod but gets thrown to the ground and skull smashed by multiple bowling balls)

Smart gal….

margo lanes doesn’t have a happy hour

But who won the match? WHO WON THE MATCH? We must know!

Also, did Lena break double digits today?

There seems to be a contradiction in today’s c̶o̶m̶i̶c̶ strip. Lena has a long history of spending her own time and money on her drivers. So, why is it such a big deal to buy four beers now? ¯\(ツ)/¯

Wouldn’t today’s strip have been funnier if Ed hid in “The Little Boy’s Room” for half an hour because he was too cheap to buy a round of beers?

She can’t really bowl and she is cheap!

Hey, when opportunity knocks……

Haha! (＾▽＾)
