Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for May 29, 2018

Reposting the upgraded YouTube link to the ‘Tracy’-inspired song and dance number that appeared on “General Hospital,” as that link was kinda buried within another post …

Thinking about it, “General Hospital” is owned by ABC …

Which is owned by Disney …

… which produced the Warren Beatty “Tracy” film.

Not sure what rights they retain, but as Neil pointed out no names were invoked.

Still …

… that was definitely Tracy. ✨

Good morning™, punsters!

$25,000 is not bad price! If I were him, I’d bite, too, for such a payday.

Oh, he’ll bite all right. ✨

These days he could pay off bills, and have a little spending money.

Reminds me of the James Bond character Jaws…

Good morning™, ready to roll, killers !

Was the client actually Bribery or Matty posing as him since no one would take him seriously as his pixelated self. If it actually is the “Bribe”, who did he have to get word out ?

I’ll bite! Love it!

I knew it! I knew that Bribery would be involved! I said so yesterday!

By the way, Mike’s use of “Topper” during the Green Hornet story has a deeper connection to Tracy – and to “General Hospital” – than I would have suspected …

I’ll bite… so to speak.

25k these days MIGHT get your car a full tank of gas!

Anybody remember “Iron Jaw” from Crimebuster " comic books?(Originally “BOY” comics) Saw tooth reminds me of him.

Wasn’t going to comment today, but…

WHY BRIBERY AGAIN?

For all its shortcomings, Ghost Pepper did have this: A NEW VILLAIN!

Sawtooth reminds me a little of Flash Thompson.

How does Bribery show up when he got dropped via the ejection chute of a Space Coupe in 1967 by the Chin Chillars through the roof of the prison workshop? In the words of Ricky Ricardo, Joe and Mike got some ‘splaining to do. 52 years is a long time to try to get payback for the death of one’s sister. But Ugly Christine made a choice of her free will to bail out of the magnetic aircar in October 1966 and end up incineratered down a smokestack.

Hey guys, I was just wondering about the resemblance of Sawtooth to a certain former weight lifter/movie star/California governor? I looked back over all the posts and couldn’t find anyone else who posted about this. But given his history, this seems to allude to him particularly! Am I wrong?

25K? Nowadays; CHOMP Change, hold out for 50K

JPUZZLEWHIZ ABOUT 8 HOURS AGOI knew it! I knew that Bribery would be involved! I said so yesterday!

Whoop Dee Doo!!!

As I think about this, I realize I can’t remember Bribery being arrested. When did that happen? I thought he escaped during all the commotion.

Can’t wait to see Sawtooth take a bite out of Ygor Glitch! Able to employ his own means, big, bad, self-confidant Sawtooth ought to be an effective “operator” and earn his keep and then some (I do think $25K is small change for a top West Coast hitman these days—of course, that assumes that the story is set in “these days”). Those Hot Tub Girls don’t come cheap, either, I’d be willing to bet….

Smart! Talk trade in front of the women. That’ll be kept in confidence!

Look at Sawtooth Living Large with two women hugging him in a pool. He must make a good living as a Human. By the way, I think $25,000 is too low. You’re putting your own life and freedom on the line.

And did anyone think that the Green Hornet storyline end too soon ? He could have done a lot more with it.
