   I’m glad that things are still going well for Mole.

   The Mole! But how does he have anything to do with Moon Maid? I read that this week’s story is supposed to tie into it. Maybe she and Retik are hiding out in Mole’s community?

   Don’t you read the words in the panels? Or do you just look at the pretty pictures?

   Here’s what Mike Curtis posted Saturday on the Dick Tracy Yahoo group:
   
   “Tomorrow a brief return of a favorite villian, but most of next week will be devoted to the side MM story.”
   
   The “favorite villain” in the Sunday strip had to have been Blackjack. And now the rest of this week, or at least most of it, is to be “devoted” to the Moon Maid story. It’s not clear yet if Mole will be involved in that story, but I guess we’ll find out as the week unfolds.

   “Hey Mommy, I’m off to study with an old man, who used to live in prison and now lives alone in an armoured hole in the ground!”
   “OK Dear, wear your gloves!”

   Now now there Mikeyj, that’s a tad harsh/unfair to Mole. If you haven’t read the earlier storyline with him, you need to. He’s one of the good guys now, working to help the homeless. If you didn’t know that, then I can understand your pun.

   Even Mole’s using a CFL…..then again, it’s getting hard to get the old tungsten bulbs these days….

   Yes, Mole strikes me as a true picture of a reformed human being. He shows compassion and takes an interest in the welfare of children.

    Although this is technically correct, Mole has been out of prison for some time and has proven himself to Tracy as a reformed felon. He even went to Tracy to tell him about his daughter Molene in an effort to make her go straight.
    The hole in the ground is Mole’s old lair, so to speak. The homeless, have been living in it for some time, Christmas 2011 showed Tracy and the rest of the MCU bringing them food and clothing. Mole has sort of become the Superintendent for the whole place.
    Toad actually lives there with her mother, it is Mole who is visiting. It is unclear if Mole is living with the homeless, or if he still lives on a farm on the outskirts of the city. Toad has been shown teaching Mole how to read.

    I know it, I’m just pointing out that a real life parent might have a little problem with this idea

    Did Mole abandon his farm? Wasn’t he living in Iowa prior to his re-introduction in the wrestling storyline last year?

    That’s the prettiest little Toad ever, isn’t she?
    I think she needs a new nickname.

    Badger, maybe? Mole and Toad are a reference to Wind in the Willows. She may be reading on that level but I doubt he is yet.
