Red and Rover by Brian Basset for July 02, 2023

Old tech versus new….

Possibly in anticipation of Fourth of July.

Just love this! Red has designed his own surface to air missile. Hey, just look how serious looking Rover is.

Let the fireworks begin!

Note the rocket colors.

I guess that’s one way to retrieve your rocket, Red!

Sorry Red, not even Legolas can hit that with a bow and arrow.

NICE !!!

Bada bing bada bang!

I can totally imagine this happening.

Good luck, Red.

Considering the target and the weapon, lucky shot if he hits it.

Red’s ‘anti-missile system’ . Good one.

Rover, are you Red’s retriever when he shoots down the bird (rocket) ….. :)

I cannot imagine, you can hit it, Red!

PULL !!

Tribute to Ukraine?

Red-dy…Aim… Fire!!

Reminds me of an arthouse short in which one man throws a hammer (like in the Olympics) and a rifleman shoots it. As the latter starts to pick up the pieces, the two men get in an argument.

Red shot an arrow in the air. Rocket fell to earth in Berkeley Square.

Just LOVE Brian’s artwork. It’s so easy to look at know immediately know the jist of the toon (compared to Little Dog Lost, Citizen Dog and others). His work is precise, non-cluttered; it’s beautifully drawn, with lovely coloring, etc., etc. He also has outstanding ways to depict the expressions and feelings of Rover and Red. Kudos, Brian!

That’s an “old school” kid thing to do!

Anti-intercontinental missile arrow.

“Pull!”

Great art work, as usual.
