Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for January 08, 2020

Oh, my …

Good morning™, elaborators!

I think she looks more than okay!

(I did some looking around about the age of Helm and it’s complicated, but interesting to me. I will try to report what I found later today.)

Now she can go to a cosplay convention.

Wow! Yes, Mysta, very okay! It’s going to be love at first sight for Roboto, no doubt.

Good morning™, opening scene starlets !

Bracing for the complaints storm… !

Oh good lord! I thought I didn’t have to see a sideways strip again ever since I quit Funky Winkerbean.

Oh yes….

And the Peanut Gallery goes WILD!!!

Good Morning™, Golden Girl (and a hot one at that!)

Can you move?

Wow. Just…wow.

In the first panel she looks like an Awards statue!!!

Couldn’t they’ve done a side by side panel?

Talk about bolt ons.

Is this a two panel strip, or just one? Is Mysta in a costume standing in front of a statue on a pedestal?

Okay is an understatement! Take me to YOUR leader!

Sorry, ahem. You are a bit…off putting. That hair, and the antennae? Try the Persis Khambatta look. I think it’ll help.

If you want to see tomorrow’s Dick Tracy, The Comics Curmudgeon has accidently posted it on his web site:

Hurry before he corrects the mistake and takes it down.

Gorgeous.

Honey, you could be in a sack dress, barefoot, and still make men break their necks!

Us females of course is another matter ;)

I like it better off.

You always look ok.

HANDLES: Voulez vou coucher avec moi, ce soir? I’m not sure how inserting Lady Marmalade into the Metropolis play will help sell tickets but I suppose every producer wants to put his stamp on stuff…

Reminds me of what Lizz said about The Painted Lady, “They say most of her clothes are painted on!” Or in this case, her costume.

Took me over an hour, but i managed to rewrite (mostly from memory) chapter 11 of Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend. I incorporated chapter 12 into it so its a bit longer than normal… but it is up!

theres TWO surprise appearances, the debut of a new character who will more than likely be sticking around..and the mother of all cliffhangers!

here’s the link to the message board site… chapter 11 is posted under the entry for chapter 10

Not sure. Stand up so I can judge better.

I think the play “Metropolis” will draw a large audience!

Secretary: Mr Staton? There’s a Tom Batiuk on line 3…. something about copyright infringement on his sideways-comic shtick.

:O

Man I’m glad the new IDW edition is out. It’ll be a change up to read Dick Tracy

The strip rotated using Don’s technique :)

Hmmm…maybe Roboto steals the costume and tries to Frankenstein his girlfriend, Edison, into an automaton.

I’m new here, what the heck is that creature?

A stage musical production of “Metropolis”? Sounds like the biggest show biz can’t miss-hit concept since a movie version of “Cats”.

Fantastic art, Joe ! It’s the best panel that I have seen and I really like the concept of showing the original robot from “Metropolis” in more definition and then having Mysta in costume asking Vitamin if she looked “OK”…

I can’t wait to see her “full look” !

Again, congratulations on the panel. Joe !

Okay? You look great!

Does this outfit make me look mechanical?

BTW – in the movie, I thought Rotwang was gong to name her Hel, after the wife who left him for Joh Frederson…

Looking good, kiddo!

Hard to say if the full costume above is “with Mysta” inside the helmet-part, or if it is a mock-up and Mysta will have her face uncovered as we see it below. —Hoping for clarification from Joe….

I said it before and I say agin…I think we are in for some costumed heroine action!

You look hot AF, Mysta.
