I don’t remember where I saw it, possibly Loony Toons, but there was some old skit where the sidekick got shot in the first five seconds and the hero walks over to a huge gumball machine filled with people and gets a spare sidekick for the remainder of the show.

The expression on the little guy in the red check shirt is amazing

Sliiiiightly racist by today’s standards.

I'm not sure I'd classify this comic as slightly racist, since the tonto-like character is being treated the same as the other two white sidekicks.

It reflects the racism of the Tonto character, since that's obviously who the Native American is inspired by.
