Dinky Duck #7

Dinky Duck swaps his usual antics for a Wild West fantasy, teaming up with Popalong Pig—his favorite cowboy movie star—to turn Farmer Gray’s farm into a makeshift frontier. Amidst staged shootouts and exaggerated showdowns, Dinky’s over-the-top performance accidentally thwarts a real burglar, leaving him to wonder if movie heroes are as heroic in real life.

In "Chow Time," Dinky Duck is thrilled when his uncle Hinky surprises him with a new pet—only to realize the "Chow Hound" is actually a lion, much to the confusion of Dinky and his friend Rudy, who insist it’s just a big, unusual dog.

In "Over Exposed," Percy attempts his classic cartoon ruse—posing a shotgun as a camera—only to be outsmarted by Little Roquefort, who’s seen enough slapstick to know a trap when he sees one. With a quick wit and a knowing smirk, Roquefort turns the trick back on Percy, setting up a moment of perfectly timed, silent comedy.

In "Bandit Blues," Dinky Duck, left in charge during the stationmaster’s lunch break, grows convinced a bandit is about to raid the Podunk Corners railway express station. With the farm gang dismissing his warnings, Dinky launches a solo, three-page slapstick crusade to protect the cargo—full of wild antics and classic physical comedy.
