“My chance of destroying Chrusher is NOW!” | Chris’ Crusher Comics #1 (1988)
Posted on September 13, 1988 by Christopher Galletta Stevens
Ronald "Cool" Foule begins utterly dominating his friend(?)/foe Chrusher with some devastating kicks and punches to the head and throat after Ron's woman flees to ingest more high caloric food. Will Chrusher die and make this the shortest comic book in history? The legend begins. It is the year 1988, and a fourteen-year-old high school freshman starts doodling a sketchbook with a storyline to amuse himself and his classmates. Little did anyone know that it was the beginning of a comic that would go on for decades. The art may be crude, as is the humor, but... everything has a beginning. It features a young lad named Chrusher, and his friends Ron Foule and Mike Butski, who had an almost Pro-Wrestling type rivalry going on, having battles of one-upmanship in the halls of the Oswegonian high school. And it seemed as if every few pages, new characters come out of the background and add more hilarity, violence, and entertainment. Enjoy.

In addition to the crude pencil-on-lined-paper art first created in 1988, this page is essentially unchanged from the original pencil-on-paper from 9/1988. In 2012, while prepping the page on Photoshop, it got a quickie coloring upgrade in 2012 for the new Chrusher.com website. © 1988-2012 - Written & Illustrated (1988) and colored (2012) by Christopher Galletta Stevens
