Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for February 07, 2013

Careful Dick, you may be skating on thin ice.

Good morning all…

The Baux family goes beyond Sweatbox, I see.

Here is another thought. It seems that Simon hasn’t visited his brother’s crypt in years. Someone knowing this could put their victims there with the knowledge that the chances of them being discovered would be slim. These would include his servants and/or his friends.

If there are only skeletal remains in the crypt. This would seem to indicate that there has been no new activity for possibly 10 or 20 years. Possibly the perpetrator(s) is/are now also deceased.

Another thing, I believe we are seeing Lee Ebony as lead detective on this case. Is a part of Mike and Joe’s homage to Black History Month.

Sigh, always some political connections…

Hi Gweedo!

It looks like he’s sweating from more than just his workout.

Just wondering, how would an umpire handle having Sweatbox on the mound? Talk about a spitter.

Rather than bring that one out, we just threw ours in. Are you saying the serial killer is named Arlo?

the mystery deepens! GREAT story so far and its all tying nicely into george’s appearance as well. oh, and i dont care if lee taking center stage is homage to black history month or not, ANYTIME i get to see the lovely ms ebony is fine by me!

Sweatbox is gushing big time! Has Lee tapped a vein? Will Tracy be able to overcome political interference with the case , or will this be even more like Chicago than it has already been?

Chief Patton got the Chicago mayor’s name wrong. It’s STRONG ARM, not Armstrong. And, it hasn’t changed to this day.

Look’s like she wants some answers too.

You can get any bones they gotAt the Stephen Baux family plot

Otto, did you blow the troll call? tsull?

With all due respect to the artists, for once I must agree with SDM, in that the pace of this episode has really slowed to a snail’s pace with talk, talk, talk. And today’s chapter seems terribly repetitive and slow.

Using a crypt to store bodies? What a novel idea!

A good example of 1960’s kids shows with DT as the main feature http://www.birminghamrewound.com/features/kidvid_sgtjack.htm

I hope Sweatbox is planning to take a shower soon…. I also hope Lee has a stuffed up nose, for her own sake

and MAYBE we can replace YOU wiht a talking monkey… tho th emonkey would PROBABLY make more sense and complain a whole lot LESS! silence is golden, so how bout ya zip it and give us about 24karats worth? :)

Simon seems shocked…shocked! at what Lee is telling him.

…..ummm….we’re not supposed to buy that someone who killed 70 years ago could be the SAME person that’s killing now, are we? It’s one thing to take liberties with characters from the past and catapult them into today, but doing it with actual time sequences is another matter; makes everything non-sensical and confusing. Actually, at this point, with Mike and Joe having shown they can make up great characters on their own anyways, maybe it’s time to go the Chester Gould route, only Tracy and Co remaining ageless. Oh, and Belle says hi to all from the hospital, ha ha!

…….as for things dragging though, SDM, maybe we should hyperspace you back to Mordred-land and before, lol. M & J are doing just fine…..don’t forget they decided to delete that pedo story which might have made things seem to go faster, too (and thank you for doing that, guys!)
