    I don’t know which is more funny, LGDs plan or Dinky’s expression. It’s a tossup

    Well, at least it’s cost-effective. You save on the expensive rocket missiles, and you save on food expenses.

    Man, before I read this strip I thought Guard Duck mistook Dinky for a grenade. That was actually funnier. But this is still pretty good.

    When you throw him, you’re supposed to yell “Duck!”Truth in advertising, or something.

    I suppose in most armies dinkies would naturally be privates.

    Love Guard Duck and loved the “toss” sound effect, to make sure we know what was happening. Very funny.

    Punting instead of tossing would get you more hang time.

    If it’s against the Geneva Conventions to bomb livestock, it’s probably also illegal to bomb with livestock.

    You’ve almost got the right idea, LGD; what you should do is attach a rubber band to Dinky’s leg. That way you can toss him in the direction of whatever you want observed, then bring him back quickly.

    “Here’s a man with a very interesting cat. This is Tiddles, is it not?” “Ah, yes, this is Tiddles.” “And what does she do?” “She flies across the stage and lands in a bucket of water.” “By herself?” “Ah, no, I fling her.” “Oh…how interesting.”

    Hey Guard Duck, maybe you could have a partnership with Peter Sripol.
