Rob D. Punarinta: Duffo the Duck

DUFFO: "Hello, readers, I'm Duffo the Duck! Today I'm trapped on some weird little island!" DUFFO: "Ho-ho! Watch this!" ROB: "Oh, hellAAARGH!" DUFFO: "HAW!" DUFFO: "Talk about a THROBBIN' ROBIN, eh, readers?" ROB: "Who are you talking to? There's nobody there!" RODENT BLOKE: "Just how do I get back at those damned robins..." DUFFO: "Uh-oh, it's Fatty! Surely he'll want revenge for last time..." DUFFO: "YAR-BOO! SUCKS!" DUFFO: "That ought to keep him out of my feathers, eh?" RODENT BLOKE: "I... what?! Who the hell's this guy?" DUFFO: "Cripes, I'm already feeling quite homesick. What's a duck to do?" HUGO THE NINJA DUCK: "That's a duck, dude?" MARCEL THE NINJA DUCK: "Hey, where's my nunchucks?" ROB: "Nattie, you're British, ain't ya? Tell us, how do we get rid of this guy?" NATTIE: "Well, if I remember all those hand-me-down comics my parents gave me correctly..." ROB: "Oh, my, this freshly-baked pie is much too hot to eat. I better place it on this windowsill and hope absolutely nobody steals it." DUFFO: "Titter! Now's my chance!" RACH: "Got the little freak!" DUFFO: "SWINDLED!" ROB: "See you in hell, you little colonizer!" DUFFO: "OOYAH! I think I just landed on a burglar!" MAYOR: "Well done, young Duffo! Please accept this £5 note as a token of my gratitude!" DUFFO: "Cor! Time for a feed!" ROB AND RACH: "@#!?!"

Looks like Rob and Rach have gotten themselves into a hairy - or should I say, FEATHERY - situation with this one, readers! Ho-ho! Chortle!
