Crankshaft, by Tom Bakiuk and Dan Davis, North America Syndicate, March 27, 2019

Yesterday’s single-panel Crankshaft comic strip reminded me of something I drew over 20 years ago, after reading about the introduction of the DVD format and the first widescreen, flat panel TV’s. I’ll explain the premise behind my comic strip when I post some more examples.

I really admire the artwork in Crankshaft. Until a couple of years ago it was drawn by Chuck Ayers. Since ending his run on Crankshaft, the art has been handled by Dan Davis, working very closely to Ayers’ style. As you can see in this picture, Davis uses a computer drawing tablet. If I ever get my drawing arm and brain warmed up again, I will remain a pencil and ink guy.
