''[[Crowbar Benson]]'' is a [[Web Comic]] about a hockey-crazed Canadian and his two troublesome sons, Benny and Eddie. Set in Manitoba, it follows the life of Crowbar, and his wacky antics.
 
The comic was created by Sandy Debreuil in 2009, and is updated at least thrice weekly.
 
Despite being a relatively new{{when}} comic, ''Crowbar Benson'' has cossed over with other webcomics, such as ''[[Taking The Bypass]]'', and Crowbar has featured in such webcomics as ''[[Thatd Be Sweet]]''.
