Behind another terrific cover by Chuck Ayers, Andrews McMeel continued their collection of the Crankshaft strips in order. For completists, the first four books with Andrews McMeel provide a nice snapshot of the early work on the strip. Most of the early tropes have been established by this point, and Chuck’s art only continues to improve.
A move of the strip to King Features Syndicate was responsible for the untimely end of this collection, although, down the road, there would be a couple of collections of significant story arcs still to come from the Kent State University Press.
