Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for July 01, 2017

Happy Saturday All!

Wow…..wonder what Blackjack’s gang thinks of this?

Autograph time!

Sparkle will be very busy today? I do not think she will have time to go to the grocery.

State of the World of DT

I finally got my website updated, at least with the current story so far. I gave the story a name that I invented because I don’t care for calling it “Blackjack III” or however many stories Blackjack has been in.

Where are we now?

This story seems to have “episodes” though they are related. The first episode concerned B.O. Plenty and Gravel Gertie. We are now in the middle of a second episode, about Sparkle Plenty.

Get out the Sharpie.

@Morrow I tried to answer your question at the end of yesterday’s comments, but then I realized I wasn’t sure what your question was.

January 2, 2014, was Tracy’s comment about Blackjack. “I didn’t fire my gun. It took an expert to shoot that sword out of Kadaver’s hand… Show yourself, Blackjack.”

About how exasperating B.O. can be, I’ll get back to you. I really have to get to bed now.

Wow, it must be worth thousands of dollars all of his collections. His “boys” probably don’t say much about them if they know what is good for them.

Told ya she went to review his museum!

Do people hate StillDaDog ?

Watch it, Detective Tracy… you’ve got competition.

I’m guessing Junior will be slightly less than enthused about Sparkle’s decision to willingly go with Black Jack like this.

Red flagg right about….now

Happy One Five O’Canada! EBay has a lot of Sparkle Plenty things.

So many single-panel strips this week.

I assume that Sparkle was blindfolded before she was brought to Blackjack’s place?

Good morning, Gweedo! Has anyone heard from Av?

So, Morrow, the other question I thought you were asking is when did Tracy say that dealing with B.O. was something he’d rather not do.

Right after B.O. paid cash for his house (February, 1984), Tracy said to him, “B.O., you can’t go around paying for houses in cash — keeping money in bureau drawers and closets — You simply must keep your winnings in a safer place.”

B.O. promptly put the rest of his $3,000,000 in a jar and buried it in the backyard.

Back at home, Tracy was asked by Tess, “Are you feeling all right, dear?”

Tracy: “Sorry I’m such bad company tonight — but being B.O.’s friend can really take it out of you…”

Here’s a bank that should attract Blackjack’s interest: https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-northkorea-china-sanctions-idUSKBN19K2OB

What’s the building model near Sparkle’s hand about?

Happy July everyone. Thanks to Morrow, Gweedo and cpalmer for donating to Fiddlers medical needs. What a trio! Here’s the link if anyone else (please? ) wants to help. https://www.gofundme.com/fiddlersfight

I wonder if Blackjack would auction something from his collection to help raise funds? LOL!

Sparkle Plenty dolls real collectible items late 40s early 50s.

Thanks Chris and welcome to club Fiddler!

Fiddler welcomes RONNIE A THOMPSON as the newest member of his crew! Thanks Ronnie for helping, it’s greatly appreciated!

Wow! I think these Sparkle Plenty Tracy and Blackjack all-in-one single panel strips are great! And what a vast assortment of Sparkle-collectibles Our Favorite Bank-Robber has! If Sparkle really does autograph them all (which will take considerable time to do), they will be even more valuable to Blackjack both sentimentally and monetarily. But meanwhile Junior sits or paces back home, fretting over the groceries, dinner, and foremost of all his wife, Sparkle.

With all the tension that is building, something is going to snap!

Junior is especially worried about his dinner, not necessarily Sparkle.

If the MCU can find his hide out they can seal it tight.

Thanks all for the Canada Day greetings and an early Fourth of July greetings to all the Americans. I’ll repeat that when the day actually arrives.
