Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for October 14, 2012

Bookie is toast!

Someone predicted this yesterday.

Fast moving story. No surprises considering Measles’ history.

i called this one DAYS ago! lol! how long til the MCU investigates the homicide?

This is why they say crime doesn’t pay.

ATTENTION YANKEES FANS! Jeter is done for theseason. He broke his ankle.

First, Measles smoked a cigar. Then he smoked Bookie. The dope-trailer is rocking tonight! Measles is, however, off his rocker….

I knew it!

“Nothin’ personal, Bookie. It’s just business.”

Good morning all…

Bye Bookie.

Wonder if Bookie figured the odds on this happening?

Gahhh! Not in the vintage Airstream!

Voter suppression is a terrible thing.

Too bad Bookie couldn’t see this coming like the rest of us could. Great artwork and coloring, as per usual.

It has nothing to do with you personally. You are probably a really neat, nice guy (with maybe just a litle too much ego). My beef is just with all the straying off center from the point of this being comments on the strip.And yes, I do think the Jeter announcement was out of place. But that’s just MY idea and I don’t run this site. I just get to commnet now and then.

Ahem….. I think the Jeter news is of more interest than a dancing squirrel or a monkey in a sitting position doing-who-knows-what!

Crimestoppers has really evolved from the Gould era.

Gould used this as a soapbox toward youth culture.

Comment on Jim’s Crimestoppers of the week – Bank Deposits.

We have all seen those stories in the news when bank deposits being hidden in camouflage bags were given away accidentally to customers. I remember one story about a deposit being given to a customer via the drive-thru window of a fast food restaurant.

Check out this story.

I myself have taken over $100,000 to the bank’s night depository in the days when customers paid in stores in hard cold cash and checks. Being in a smaller community we were able to have a police escort.

Could be an old Avalon, they sort a looked like Air Streams.

I will complain, what does that have to do with anything, why do you do this nonsense? nobody likes it and you know it.

Very nice installment today. Team Tracy just keeps on giving.

Sdm, you are a bully

A leopard can’t change his spots…. neither can Measles!

I have already done so.

Measles has been eating too many greasy meals. .She has broken out all over her forehead, again..What’s in the bag? My guess is more C-H-O-C-O-L-A-T-E !.Not a fair gun fight. She shot ED ASNER under the table..Who does she thinks she is? GREEDO?...

Listen LADY, I know GREEDO, YOU ARE NO GREEDO! . SIDE-NOTE: >>>>>>( If you are not watching or listening to the debates…. Shame on you! )

..And don’t change your shorts, but COME ON -———- Let’s QUIT ALL THE SMOKING!.And Measles, that’s not very lady-like, gal. Let’s not forget your lunch tomorrow and ED ASNER won’t have to bring you his.

Thanks JOHN RUSSOI and APersonOfInterest, for your painstakingly, but nicely worded assessments of Mattie. Those of us who have endured several other boards that he dominated know him well. My good friend Sydney knows him better than most. Others like Sparkydog77, BB, and Ludwig Von Drake all know him. One thing that you can set your watches on – and that’s whenever you think you have seen the lowest in class, just wait him out a few more minutes and you wll see a new low. Impersonating Dick Locher was just a “teaser” for you all.

Since you no longer read Dick Tracy, it’s a good thing you heard about this so you could contact your lawyer on Sunday evening.

You may wish to give a heads up to your friend Dick Locher. Still Da Man’s impersonation of him made Locher sound like a cranky old man. I’m sure Locher would not be pleased at someone impersonating him.

That last panel is nicely Gould-esque.

Wow!

Love today’s strip! Great work again from Team Tracy.

this new crew still amazes me. the sunday colonists are the best around. cut the garnish monday-saturday color! go back to goulds traditionalist black&white!! longer and more complex stories with new gould-ish like characters would make this new crew just about rivals to the great gould. bravo, team tracy! does “dick tracy” appear in any newspapers? wondering?

yeah right?

u r a bully. Bully! Bully! Bully. first class stinker. Stop being so childish.
