    Holy Moly. Mr. Ringmaster is also a Psychic! Let him read your palms Tracy.

    Hey, she’s not dead! Her arm must have moved because it’s in a different position from yesterday! We may NOT have a crime…

    What exactly is that Elephant attempting to do?

    Consistency is still tops since Mr. Ringmaster looks different from when he was originally introduced.

    The elephants are still performing while Louise Trapeze bleeds out on the circus floor. (A pool of sawdust no doubt),

    Bonnie is out re-filling her popcorn that Dick had to eat instead of the pizza.

    Should have gone to Pizza Hut Dick.

    ridenslide65, but then we’d have no exciting, riveting, action packed so called story.

    BTW, the elephant looks curiously like a stuffed toy.

    And looks like it’s packing away the circus props now that the show’s over.

    That’s true but Dick could be stuffing his face with a P-Zone right about now!!

    A question if I may? She shows no signs of trauma in this ventral view, but we see what appears to be blood pooling around her. If there is no trauma to be observed, how can one make the assertion that she has been shot and that the blood is not from the effects of the fall?

    These new bullets appear not to leave entry wounds!

    Stop criticize. It’s the moment to follow this story. Probably the ringmaster know something because behind this murder there’s a blackmail against the circus.

    As the artwork and dialog gets sillier, the comments become far more entertaining. This strip could be applauded, only if done by a 6th grader.

    How’d Macy know she was shot? Has he flipped her over to see where the blood originated?

    Maybe it and was an “Honor Killing” and she disobeyed her husband. Islamic thing, you know.

    morrow said : “How’d Macy know she was shot? Has he flipped her over to see where the blood originated?

    He hasn’t even bent down to examine the body or take a “pulse”. But as the holder of a Matrix pack he can stand at a distance and tell or change all things

    Locher has really “empowered” Dick Tracy ! And for years we thought the old Two-Way had done it !

    No problem, Carlo. I’m also familiar with the difficulty of having to speak a second language. (Spanish, in my case.)

    Forget the ambulance, what about the Naperville CSI team? Maybe Lt. Teevo could head that group up…

    Ringo in Panel 2 looks like something from a Jack Chick tract…

    And Grok, Ringo’s head IS wider than his hat–the bottom part of his head, that is…you see, Ringo has double-duty as the Conehead in the sideshow every other Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday when Dan Aykroyd is chasing UFOs or hawking Crystal Head vodka…

    Let’s hope it is a three-ring circus, and that the killer is not a monkey!

    The elephant is obviously pointing to a clue! He has spotted something which Dick has overlooked. Some trivial piece of evidence whose importance will be revealed later on in the spinning of this spine-numbing, I mean tingling tale!

    I predict that the elephant will actually be the key to Dick’s unraveling this knotted mystery!

    Doesnt the curtain behind Dick in the 1st panel look like a big giant mouth with pointy teeth? The same mouth looks like it was about to eat Dick yesterday as well.

    No problem, Carlo. I just respectfully disagree with you. The strip jumped the shark years ago.

    Ciao.

    channce said, “… I suspect that we may actually have some small amount of influence, considered that the ludicrous huge black shadow under the deceased was replaced today by a much more detailed blood pool drawing after the original huge shadow was lampooned yesterday.”

    Uh, channce, you do realize that the strips are drawn weeks in advance, right? :)
