Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for October 02, 2013

yeah, like they would know how to pilot it, or Diet would leave it operable knowing full well outsiders lurked….

Don’t celebrate yet, guys. Diet Smith can shut it down via remote.

Good morning all…

“Fly Me to the Moon”.

I seem to remember Diet disabling the Space Coupe not too long ago.

And possibly seal the doors to prevent their escape until back up arrives.

Space-coupejacking in progress, Diet must have left the keys in the ignition when he left. That’s a crime-stopper’s no no.

…..as far as the chances of Moon Maid being the real deal…..it’s obvious there’s no way, using simple logic……if someone discovered a process that actually COULD bring anyone back to life, why on earth would they BOTHER trying to steal the space coupe? The worth of that discovery would allow them to buy a fleet of them, and have billions to spare….

….plot holes beginning to show here…..I mean, first the space coupe landing and then unlanding, and now Sputnik safe and back with Melies and company…..um, what happened with the big confrontation between him and his cohorts, and BB’s gang? I find it hard to believe they would shake hands and walk away from each other, lol.

…….and in a stunning, never guessed ending, Nellie comes in, shoots everyone, and steals the space coupe for herself……

One last question…how you gonna top THIS story, Mike and Joe? You’ve set the bar impossibly high for yourselves NOW!

I’ve got an idea. How about Diet Smith change the trajectory to a direct course to the Sun!

What happened to Notta Chin Chiller?

Could the Space coupe use fingerprint or retinal scan for security?

I am relieved that Moon Maid isn’t going to be in the Space Coupe after all. I am thinking everyone in it is going to meet their demise. I was worried she would be part of that. She is safely in the Wheaton home with Junior and Sparkle. I hope she stays there.

Very careless of Diet to leave the Space Coupe unsecured when he left it! Now look what’s happened. Sail has his trained pilot, Flash Munro, and the wounded Ghote aboard and is about to pull off a Coupejacking!But there are a lot of foes still near to hand, and Diet Smith presumably has his override-remote controller handy (I hope). Sail most likely will not be sailing far.

When did Diet LEAVE the Space Coupe? I saw Ghote leave but not Smith. So how did Melies and Co wrest control of the coupe from Diet.

(And on a side note—since we’re into October now, I think the “arc will end in the middle of September” mark has been surpassed….)

the way this story has jumped from scene to scene the last few days, i’m beginning to think that THE JUMBLER has been writing it.

we havent seen the end result of doubleup and hy pressure’s confrontation, somehow the shootout between mumbles, bb eyes and the sputniks has ended, nellie has pulled a vanishing act, along with lizz and pops wheaton, the sniper stationed outside the wheaton house with his sights set on nellie hasnt been seen since his introduction, we’ve got the space coupe playing leapfrog all over the farm, mumbles shoots ghote then just walks away with bb eyes…its enough to make you dizzy!

As far as new story lines go, what if whatever brought Mysta back to life could be used for other past characters. It’s not good business to kill off good villains. Bring back Flattop!

Getting good now! Will Sail and company escape safely with the Coupe? Somehow I think not……

Aha ! Your duplicate posting has blown your cover: Night-Gaunt49 is actually Doubleup! Doubleup!

So much is happening at once! I keep going back and re-reading just to make sure of whats going on. What is taking us a week to read through, id taking seconds in the Tracyverse. Meanwhile, back at the Claus Haus…

Clearly, Sail has never been a Marine, since he’s willing to leave some of his men behind to fend for themselves. Clear villain behavior!

SDM, that wasn’t a very nice thing to say to Sydney. I thought he treated you quite well yesterday! And, as far as the usual “LOL” wisecrack about moving to Texas, at least they wouldn’t be paying state income taxes. They had best stay in Woodstock, though.

It seems that someone lost their sense of humor yesterday over our “tongue in cheek” comments about a certain boy and his cat.

I just don’t know…

I haven’t read all the comments so someone may have already said this. My guess is Diet set the space coupe on auto pilot for outer space. These guys will take off and never return doing away with the space coupe and the bad guys in one swell foop er.. fell swoop.

There, there, SDM. Don’t get your DT frillies up in a wad. We don’t need a temper tantrum so close to Med Time. Just get in line at the nurse’s station, open wide, and chase it with the juice.

Given Nellie’s unhealthy, Lolita-esque attraction to much older men, Lizz decided to make lemonade out of Nellie and recruit Nellie for their “To Catch A Predator” sting department.

I never trusted that Nellie. She’s a very “Bad Seed” if you ask me. I could totally see her turning to the dark side and becoming a nemesis of Tracy in the future, perhaps pulling a FATAL ATTRACTION twist by going after Tess?
