   It looks like Shirl(ey) may be saved…

   This has definitely been a less than stellar storyline. Every time I thought a twist was coming the most obvious thing happened. And whatever happened to “Big Al”?

   Oh yes, this makes a lot of sense. Kill one villian (Mr. B) to save another (Shirl). Guess good old DT did not figure out yet that Shirl is a mole. Anyone else notice DT seems to have unusually small hands? Here, DickTracy, have a lunchable as a sandwich today, your hands can’t seem to handle anything else. Put a pickle and a piece of cheese on a cracker and call it a meal for this cop!!!

   The hand looks small but it appears that he,s holding it to the left, as in farther back from the front of the panel. In the last panel his hand is commensurate in size to Shirl’s. They’re both in close proximity to her face. If she got killed or crippled DickTracy wouldn’t be able to put her in jail, a cop’s worst nightmare. Sandwich guy you found a way to “bleeep” the rap. Thanks.

   Tracy’s hand size was discussed at length on the TMS board. Too bad they don’t take criticism very well! They don’t take it at all!

   This whole story has been ludicrous! What happened to Big Al? As was said before, why doesn’t the SWAT team tranquilize these dogs! Why must bleeep Locher continually show close-ups? I’ve been a Tracy fan for over 40 years, and I really just read it nowadays just to see what lunacy is coming up next!!!

   Big Al Lergy is probably enjoying a game of cards with our old friend Parc in the Forgotten Henchmen Lounge.

   Notice how Mr. Tracy can swiftly walk up to armed men and take their whistles, and all they can do is scream “Hey! No!” They don’t seem to be able to take the whistles back from him, or shoot him. This is too bad since we all know Lochner could write months of storyline where everyone exchanges whistles every day until they all die of an STD. Maybe Tracy’s small hands are his “secret” weapon…a secret that everyone can see. Mr. Tracy’s hands are the perfect size for sneakiness and picking up slices of sandwiches. Grabs the whistle with his left hand, puts it in Shirl’s mouth with the right hand… ew, where has that whistle been and why the bad odor of lunchables and pickle? If I were Shirl, I would not eat that whistle…take my chances with the dogs.

   You know what they say about small hands… :)

    You guys (and gals) sure they are whistles? That little hole in the end is burnt! Maybe it’s a dual purpose mini-bong! Not to worry, DT fans; they’ll be back on the street in 24 hrs (the mini-bongs, that is). The way the courts are, the crooks will be right behind them.

    Just my opinion, but if this the best Locher can do, he either needs to retire the strip or turn it over to someone with some talent and someone who has at least a little sense of what the classic bleeep Tracy strip is supposed to be all about. This stuff is just pathetic.
