Cigar Fuse-Lighting

So Sgt. McKickass has a cigar in his mouth, and brings a stick of dynamite; lighting the fuse off his cigar. A puff of smoke from his mouth, a sly grin, and he's off walking forward, tossing the dynamite behind him. This may be a Discredited Trope, at least in modern settings. Usually includes McKickass preforming an Unflinching Walk.

Can also be done with a cigarette or (conceivably) a pipe, but cigars just look cooler.

Not to be confused with Explosive Cigar. Couldn't Find a Lighter is the inverse.
