Confusions of a Nutzy Spy

In this encore from 2010, Looney Tunes joins the war effort as Porky Pig and Egbert the dog hunt down Missing Lynx, a Nutzy Spy.  I especially like the visual pun on the song "Hallelujah, I'm A Bum."  From the Internet Archive, the 1942 animated short, Confusions of a Nutzy Spy
