Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for January 10, 2015

Good morning guys!

ANOTHER happy ending!!! (Okay, even I don’t believe that…)

Is Vitamin going to quit his life and the theatre to go with Kandi?

am not buying this

From last night:tsull2121 said, “… having been a“GOULD/FLETCHER/COLLINS” reader to begin with to me, that is the watermark for stories/artwork.I’ve read, of course, gould’s original stuff and it was good, but for me I LOVED the era of fletcher/collins.. Torcher being one of my favorite villains… along with art dekko and astral plane and haf-and-haf.”My only comment, tsull2121, is that Haf and Haf was a created by Gould (1966 – pretty much right after the Mr. Bribery story). He did make a return appearance, after Gould.

Good morning my friends. I don’t think Vitamin will quit the stage and screen. Maybe. Sunday will tell which path he will actually choose. Y’all have an adventurous weekend.

Hope for a reasonably happy ending …

Emoting like a true professional!

Vitamin is a true gentleman

It won’t be long before she finds out Vitamin’s wierd fetishes, and get the heck outta Dodge. The guy gives me the creeps!

Love that third panel.

Cue the violins…

A happy ending for Vitamin? Would be nice. On Sunday, hopefully we will see Dick meet up with Tess at the hospital and find out if new grandchild is a boy or a girl.

The old ham has a way with words. Great art, as always. The final panel is especially strong, as we move from close up to long shot. In the wake of a murder and bombing, the lovebirds stand united. Bravo.

d’aww…

Vitamin’s too much of a ham to give up the center stage spotlight

“I swear by the bard and all who have come after him, I shall NEVER let such monsters MENACE you!”

Famous last words…he just set Kandi up for a load of trouble. IMHO.

He never seems to have such problems in L.A., if he can get a movie gig for a while….

Woo Hoo! Does this mean we won’t have to endure any further appearances of hurl inducing Flintstone Vitamin? One can only hope! LOL!

Love the character of Kandikane, and Joe’s depiction of her, and Vitamin is one of my favorite characters, but sparks shoot out of my ears when I try to wrap my brain around the two of them together.Him falling for her, yes; her falling for him, I don’t think so (unless she’s got some secret we have yet to learn).

Ba deep, Ba deep ,Ba deep The Thu Thu That’s all Nightshade.LOl.

Welcome back, Stilldamatt!

The whole point of daily/weekly cliffhanger type strips is to keep us in suspense, in suspended animation, so to speak…Joe & Mike are doing well at this…anything can happen here..and usually does..

I always felt that Dr. Mordred acted like such a Moron! LOL!

Vitamin’s mouth is writing check reality might not cash!

I find nothing unusual about Kandikane and Vitamin falling in love. Vitamin’s first wife, Snowflake Falls looked to be about as younger to Vitamin as Kandikane looks here. Clearly, the old gent has charm and charisma that transcends his age.^Could somebody provide an image of Snowflake Falls here? Vitamin looked exactly the same then that he does now.

It appears to me that the dust and/or smoke has subsided considerably since the long shots in yesterday’s strip. That indicates to me that this scene is taking place moments after the explosion, probably just after Tracy and Sam left the theatre. I wouldn’t expect fire and ambulance people to be there yet, but I imagine that they soon will be.

In MY world, Kandy then calls another, unknown to be until now, sister…..Rikki….and they ride off in the coach to meet Abner……

Seriously, though, people seem to forget Vitamin is in the ENTERTAINMENT biz……where lots and lots of aging male actors hook up with girls young enough to be their daughters…as well as insist on being cast with that age group in their movies….want a list?

Harking back to yesterday’s comments, hey Vista Bill….would you REALLY ask Abner Kadavers live-in girlfriend for a date behind his back, lol?

@Pequod77: thanks for the flash back. Can we get another good poem tomorrow? Have a prosperous weekend my friend.

How can Vitamin being the actor he is, can attract so many young chicks? (Women, that is. Please I am not sexist!) His first girl died and this one seems like she wants no part of Vitamin’s life hanging around with people that capture criminals. Still, this story is fun to read and I can’t wait to see what happens next.

Yup. “Dear, can we stop by a drugstore? "

Vitamin, Vista Bill and Rikki will meet you in front of the playhouse. We’ll be on the death coach. Hop in (for the ride of your life)!

Vitamin: “You’re every bit as safe as every other friend or love interest in this comic!”

Kandikane: “…Yeah. Don’t call or try to find me, okay?”
