Another Jack King cartoon starring Beans, but this time Porky’s along for the ride too, in King’s first use of the character. Though the characterization of both of them falls pretty flat, overall it’s my favorite Jack King Beans cartoon so far. There’s some genuinely amusing and inventive gags, a fairly focused WWI-era war plot, and some decent animation. It takes almost three minutes for a recognizable character (Porky) to show up, but those first few minutes are fairly enjoyable anyway. There’s some light fat shaming of Porky in the middle of the cartoon, and possible ableism in the first part (I’m not totally sure what’s going on with the guy hitting himself in the face with a toy gun). It’s not a great cartoon, but it’s certainly not an awful one.
