Crankshaft strip left to right: The girl's drawing but the woman thinks about the caretaker driving through the funeral. The young man walks past the phone as the caretaker disposes of a purple bouquet. The old man stands in road behind the caretaker's cart, the couple's gravestone in golden hour light. #art #artsky #comics #collage #Crankshaft #historietas #漫画

Watch The Party Die (6/6)

The Canadian New Democrat leader, Jagmeet Singh, is on the phone when CLICK... his mind fills with crosswords, sharp teeth gnaw at his heart, people stare at him like abstract and they can't get, and the famous orange cat just stares and contemplates, You Are Not Here. #CdnPoli

triptych of 3 comic panels. Centre, a young blonde woman with arched eyebrows and a t-shirt that says B.S. looks at an older woman with white hair and a grin. Left and right are variations on the same picture of a child child hiding behind their mother, scared to enter a pre-school classroom. The left version has heavy, vibrant colours. The right is muted and squeezed into a sharper, skinnier shape.

memory

triptych the centre of which is the word BLURF exploding with a viscous brown liquid. Left, mom sips her coffee walking by her son slouched in a chair; right, the peeks around the corner at the rathole.

viking leap from the ship, NOO, AAARGH, YAAAH as their captain watches dumbfounded... "Probably this," thinks a mind beneath the white foam. #art #artsky #collage #comics

Probably this.

The dog is having deja vu at the bar, thinking about Prez the Cat. A bottle of Jack Daniel's American whisky foregrounds, as the dog tongues the exterior vent. The dog imagines itself reading in a meadow as it sits by the washing machine, bleaching his whites.

I am Canadian

a pig. best friends, one standing calmly behind one who is a pastiche of panicked expressions. The pig has a thought. Two single celled parameciums, all dressed with mushrooms and pepperoni. Two best friends.
