This is not going to end well for the bad guy.

For some reason I am reminded of one D&D game I played in which featured the dreaded Dire Chicken as a typical opponent. They looked like normal chickens but acted like velociraptors in a bad mood. And fought about that hard, too.

Doesn't take a dire chicken.  A fully grown chicken can be hard to deal with.  And if it's a fighting cock can be dangerous even to a human.

True. For some reason I suspect that that priest is not nearly as skilled at handling chickens as, say, a regular farmwife.

No.

The low hanging fruit from this comic is almost all beyond the line.

Pardon me whilst I think about Baseball...

Not unless the cleric in question sacrifices a lot of chickens as part of their day to day worship, like say voodoo, to use a more or less modern example.

That would be Cardinal Sanders.

Some people are just plain bad at handling angry birds.

Obviously we need more green pigs with construction supplies.

That was my first thought. The symbolic American bird knows!

He's fortunate it did not take a finger off, and that it is tied to the perch. When did this nugget of gold happen?

Back in December 2015.

Clearly it was on to him.

Ah, before he became POTUS. I was wondering how I missed this. Yes, it is prescient.
