Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for September 02, 2019

Good morning™, agency staffers!

Clara is modeling no more. Don’t tamper with the evidence!

Reading the comics while taking a break from following Dorian. It scares me when I am in the red area.

Good morning™, kill site commanders !

A take charge woman. My kinda gal !!! ;-)

She just took the “shoot” part the wrong way.

Why do I get a 90’s indy comic feel with this?

Well my only guess its a famous Detective named Tracy!!!

Well, of course, the butler did it.

This looks like a job for Sherlock Holmes. But because this isn’t Victorian London, call Dick Tracy!

So the woman that found Clara is a physician? PA? RN? Paramedic? After all, she pronounced Clara as dead LOL j/k

The first rule of finding a dead body is never assume they are dead. Call 911.

Nice touch of irony, having the female lead in this story named Friday… as in Joe Friday. (Yes, I’m that old.)

She can’t be calling Dick Tracy, she doesn’t have a wrist wizard

As Don Bagert and atomicdog mentioned, we are rushing to conclusions here – she could just have fallen or fainted. But because this is a MM, we have to hurry through certain details so we can get Tracy on the job. I hope he’s on the scene tomorrow, and this is written with some actual, good old fashioned detecting. I do like this art – I’m interested how Tracy will be rendered.

“I’m making a call!”

[ring ring]

“Hello, temp agency? I need a fill-in for a bikini shoot, stat!”

Friday Foster is a pleasant change from a fly-faced character, but I admit Sally was very attractive!

Who ya gonna call? (Yeah, I know; that was all handled in the first Comment and its gaggle of Replies.)

Friday and her studio may be overacting a bit (the Orson Welles-like odd angles and starkness of the shots), but this is very promising so far: no wasted elements!

She just fainted from living on the model’s diet of Reds, Vitamin C and Cocaine. All her friends can say is…(you know)

Car 54, where are you?
