Crankshaft by Tom Batiuk and Dan Davis for February 08, 2025

Pan really got his goat with that one!

Okay, last week we were sore afraid that the “Skip Interviews Batton” arc was going to extend into a second week, and instead we were dropped into “Dinkelberg Does Evan Almighty.”

Now it looks as though this band room borefest in going to keep going come Monday, but I’m still Batiuk will surprise us yet again.

Maybe for Valentine’s Day Lillian will go for a walk in the park and find Eugene still rowing in the lake. Then she can finally finish stealing her late sister’s boyfriend.

W.h.e.r.e.’.s C.r.a.n.k.y…

Hairy needs to throw away his mattress and all his bedding… There are bedbugs crawling all over his face…

Well Boys and Girls. Another week without our faithful and beloved Ed Crankshaft. Should we start a ball board and see if he will get to at least make a Super Bowl Sunday cameo or will Batty have another stupid FW flashback where they were supposedly going to get to play in the “Big Game,” but were denied because of some inane reason?

Place your bets now!

godawful

So that was “God’s” anti-pan ultimate commandment?

Update:

54-28-11

Encourages the lower chairs to challenge for a seat by a window, so have enough light to read the music.

You know what I dream about…?

An America where a foreign-born, unelected oligarch doesn’t control the mechanisms of government operations and where racists aren’t proudly supported and protected a POTUS that is a convicted felon.

The fact that God hasn’t smited Dinkle this week shows one of two things: either God isn’t real in Funky Winkerbean or Batty hates Fan Service (possible third option: no smiting clip art exits so Davis can’t make a comic with it)

Zamfir would disagree! If he’s still alive…

SPOILER ALERT!VVVVVWhen he steps in and finds out it’s the football coach on the P.A. system, he wakes up screaming!

But then…we’d have no Zamfir!

meanwhile cranky cant decide what fight to watch dirk and jared or augie and too much colonge man

A day without Crank is like a day without………………….

I bet Gheorghe Zamfir would disagree with the last statement

Why is Crankshaft dreaming about band directors and banned instruments? :)
