   It’s the elephant’s trunk! That’s what Fee Fi wants Tracy to grab.

   Poor kitty looks so unhappy!

   Look at the negative white space between Mr. Pops and Ringo: It’s almost like one of those optical illusion drawings where another face becomes apparent if you stare at it long enough. In this case, it appears to be an ugnaught seen in profile.

   Good heavens, I hope it isn’t Dumbo flying up above Tracy. If he should let one go….

   Is that a cell phone or a pair of sunglasses? And why is whatever it is smoking?

   Locher,

   Will you PLEASE end this thing? You have been dragging this on for about three weeks now!

   …

   …

   THIS MAKES NO SENSE!

   If the tiger fails to kill them, yes, it’s attempted murder… AND THE VICTIMS WILL BE ALIVE TO TESTIFY AGAINST YOU, IDIOT!

   If the tiger kills them, it’s MURDER, not ATTEMPTED murder. MORON!

   Meanwhile, Fee Fi tells Tracy what we’ve been saying for weeks… The cage is open on the top. Because Tracy never noticed the complete lack of ceiling.

   And the clown’s talking on Maxwell Smart’s shoephone.

   The ultimate words: Dick Tracy is, actually, the most stupid and worst comic strip in the universe.

   This is so bad it does not warrant a comment… DOH!

    It must be Louise’s Trapeze’s partner, Chucky.

    There appears to be a top of the cage where yesterday there wasn’t one.

    Sheesh, I’m surprised everybody doesn’t have a 2-way wrist phone by now! Are you saying Diet Smith only outfits the cops? Well, that explains the moon coupe fiasco!

    “Top of the cage that wasn’t here yesterday “?

    Add it to the list.. Yesterday, there was a Police Squad to guard Circus personel and the Crime scene. They’re gone today (no explanation) and now, are called in again !

    If Brozman had enough “cajones” to say he’s not drawing that silly yellow rubber duckie on Sundays.he should point out these (laughable), JUVENILE inconsistencies to old man Locher !

    But I guess all he’d hear is “Oh ! It’s just a comic strip” - - - Dicky’s well practised “excuse”, that he uses to confound his acolytes (like M and J) ;-) when he’s caught out writing nonsense and insulting the intelligence of DT readers.

    But then, anyone that could put a Duck (that resembles a woman’s teat) in a comic strip must fantasize that he’s writing a strip like Winnie the Poo

    The only suspense here is wondering how many pointless, out-of-the-blue “plot” twists there are going to be before this nonsense wraps up.

    Locher: write in the blackboard a hundred times “I must not repeat myself”, “I must not repeat myself”…

    In comparison, is not as dumb as it looks…

    Strong was he when in his prime
    We watch in horror his sad decline
    How could he fall from the pinnacle of success
    To the dismal depths of this muddied mess
    Once the champion of law and order
    He now exudes such a frightful odor
    That many fans are prone to say
    He should just up and go away
    The artwork might have been forgiven
    But the stories were so badly written
    With holes in continuity and plausibility
    They proved to be his greatest liability
    The plots were insipid and just plain lame
    The dialog unfortunately was much the same
    Once a Detective we could respect
    He has been laid low from neglect
    Can he resurrect his former glory
    Or is this the end of the story
    Of that great comic strip detective
    Who has sadly become defective.

    Sydney, Margueritem, Jumbobrain, thank you very much.

    wndrwrthg,

    Your’re getting better every day.

    Mattie should do Dicky a favor and send him “transcripts”, since I don’t believe he even dares to read this board.

    Yesterday “Tracy, grab ahold.”

    Today “Tracy! Look above you!’

    Tomorrow “Tracy! Drop on the deck and flop like a fish!”

    “Hello, Comics Outsourcers? Yes, this is Mr Locher again. I’d like to put in November’s order. I’d like ten grimacing Ringos, fifteen Tracys in profile (three with sweat), and twenty clowns holding phones. Oh, and eight tigers. The deluxe well-drawn ones? Those cost extra, right? No, just the budget tigers will be fine. Good, now I’ve emailed you six lines of dialog. Just mix them up and put them where you think they’ll fit, and send the whole lot to my syndicate as usual. And don’t forget the signatures!”

    idarke, I think you may be right!

    “Dick Tracy Writer Arrested, Charged With Attempted Boredom” – news headline I’d like to see.

    Now, back to my pet project: raising Chet Gould from the dead. There can only be an upside to it.

    You told Ringo it was time to turn him in on Saturday. Now it’s past time – you’re two days too late!

    Here’s the upside; I haven’t seen the strip in a week, and MISSED NOTHING. There’s suspense and then there’s ennui. DL obviously doesn’t know the difference.

    Couldn’t fee fi have bent some bars to get them out, or bashed the lock in? And why isn’t the tiger trying to attack fee fi for holding on to his tail? Does anyone really care anymore?

    I thought the hero was suppose to save the day. Tracy just stands around like a useless lump of .

    Araldite, it’s so much fun to see Smokey Stover again.

    wndrwrthg, I agree w/ Sydney, you are getting better every day.

    Let’s see, where are we? Oh, yes. Ringo is his own worst enemy, surrounding himself with people who have something to hide and threatening to reveal what that is, Tracy proves once again that he should be fired at once, since even the Keystone Kops could do a better job, the clown manages to put together a scheme that absolutely should not work but stands a chance in this case because of the aformentioned detective, and the strongman has to point out something to DT that’s been painfully obvious to everybody else reading this (Hey, Mr Tracy! The cage has no top! Climb out and save your sorry life!)

    In the story of Daniel in the lions den, it’s important to remember what happened to Daniel’s enemies after Daniel was set free by the king. Pops, I’d stay away from wild animal exhibits if I were you.

    Secondary note: Ringo, there’s a difference between a whistleblower and a common fink. Learn that difference if you expect to live long.

    Hey Everybody,

    I am a victim of cyber-harassment! Enjoy all the gory details in my latest blog entry:

    http://kraptastrophe.blogspot.com/

    Other than the crime and law-enforcement themes, this has absolutely nothing to do with DT, but check my previous blog entries, and you will, of course, find numerous DT alterations and parodies.
