The Remakable Journey of Higgins Von Higgings is a Web Video short by Duncan Bros..

In a remote desert setting, two rivals, the titular protagonist and his arch-nemesis Corporal Tyrannis, meet and decide to settle their differences for the last time.

Despite being only 19 seconds long, it manages squeeze in lots of tropes, especially ones belonging to Rule of Cool department.
