Dinky Duck #3

Mar 1952 · St. John · 0.10 USD
“Flatfoot Fledgling”

In "Flatfoot Fledgling," Dinky Duck finds himself in a whirlwind of absurd danger when a hobo, mistaking a farm for a buffet, loads up a sack with a comically oversized menagerie—including Dinky, two goslings, a hen, a turkey, and a full-grown jackass—after hopping off a freight train. With a tongue-in-cheek twist on dental dreams, Rudy’s new "profession" adds a layer of comedic irony to the chaos. The story unfolds in Jim Tyer’s distinctive, energetic style, with crisp, expressive art that brings the zany premise to life. The cover, by Tom Morrison, captures the frenetic energy of the scene with bold, dynamic lines.

As Rudy declares himself a dentist after reading a discarded book on "How To Pull Teeth", a hungry hobo hops off a freight train and stuffs a sack with an impossibly large volume of farm animals he intends to eat - including Dinky, two goslings, a hen, a turkey, and a full-grown jackass. ...Only from Jim Tyer.
