Lots of action going on at the aquarium. A murder, a phishing operation, a cop in danger, and now Honeymoon, Jewel, and Joe in the middle of it all. I likey!
I thought our bartender was sending a signal yesterday, but with our heroes outside now, it must have been just another salute to The Great One. I for one am certainly happy to see that, but now it’s time to get down to business. Ditto Chief Patton, you said it!
What I’m getting from Panel 1: the Wrist Wizard can be updated automatically, like the apps on an iPad or similar device. I’m really loving the Wrist Wizard, leaps and bounds over the Wrist Geenee (that hurt just to type those last two words)
What a coincidence—-a field trip at the same time all this is going down…I wonder if Honeymoon will extract her own vengeance for the $300 stolen from her account
A huge coincidence but its nice to see the kids together. It’s amazing how close in age they are considering how far apart they were born but that’s comics for you!
Am I the only one with a sense of foreboding here? All the little Tracies, at the scene of a vicious murderer’s lair; will they be taken hostage by Phishface and Chum? Or, will “Moon Maid” swoop in to the rescue? C’mon, MCU, doubletime it!
WOO HOO!!! JOE TRACY!!!!! lol! i didnt know sparkle jr’s name was jewel.. thats kinda neat! ok, hang on while i read the rest of the comments before i continue…(ok, comments are all read, now to double check the strip….ok.. done, now to continue smile) why would honeymoon need to remind tracy who her sister is, unless this is hte first time its been mentioned in the strip since i always have heard her referred to as parkle jr, and the creative team want us to know she’s now got a name? either way, jewel seems to fit perfectly. in order its honeymoon, joe, then jewel in oldest to youngest right? and funny enough, joe is their UNCLE lol! what i like about todays strip i what everyone else has been saying, that panel three is better than two.. but theres more… panel one shows the MCU at work, then panel two goes one better showing that honeymoon has an active wrist wizard and tracy can keep in touch with her at any time (you’d think that joe and jewel would have one too, just for safety’s sake) and then panel three with the shot of pop pop and his son and granddaughters.. very VERY nicely done! team tracy continues to impress each and every day. at first i thought tracy would have told her to stay away from the aquarium, but knowing those three kids, it would have made them stick around. i guess the murder at the aquarium the previous day (?) hadnthit the news yet otherwise the school would have cancelled or at LEAST postponed the field trip. either way i am very pleased with todays offering.. just as i have been since i “moved back into tracyville” last october. i’m gonna have to do some digging to find out exactly WHEN my “anniversary date” is lol! one last note.. i’m gonna go back thru yesterday and the day before’s postings to see how many votes SDM got to stay and how many he got to leave.. offhand i know it’s at LEAST 6-0 in favor of him going away. when i get to work i will find out and let the board know for sure. (according to his rules voting was from tuesday til wednesday, no matter WHAT he said afterwards to try and extend it)
Wrist wizards must not be that hard to come by if even the children have them. One wonders why Phish bothered to take Sam’s wizard since, apparently, they’re floating around all over the city.Having been reminded of how bad it used to be, it’s good to see the force doing real police work and not depending on us, the commenters, to do it for them like in the old days.
Will the kids beat the MCU to the Sam under the sea exhibit? While I’m looking forward to a face-to-face between “Moon Maid” (please let it be Her) and Honeymoon, it won’t be here and it won’t be now.
If memory serves, Diet Smith gave Honeymoon a Wrist Wizard because she’d helped the police before – and because she’s his god-daughter.Love this strip – and enjoying the comments!
i’ve got a question here.. two days ago when dick, lizz and lee went in search of sam, they said that his wrist wizard had been disabled but they could locate the LAST place he had been. if it is disabled, woudl the wrist wizard upgrade still be able to find it? just curious. oh, one last thing. i went back two days to the beginning of "STILDAMAN"s “challenge” where he offered to leave depending on the outcome of a vote which carried very SPECIFIC instructions… and i have tallied the votes. i will post them, and mattie’s original post so we can all see it as he wrote it.. right after this one… and remember my little “add on” was that IF he should lose then he has to admit PUBLICLY what we all kow.. that he is INDEED matt hansel and he has to never return to the board under ANY name at all… since in HIS terms i had to apologise to him if i lost. some of you may find the end results SHOCKING! ;)
ok, direct copy of STILLDAMAN’s post from two days ago when he issued his “challenge” to me…..
Still Da Man! said, 2 days ago@tsull2121 WOW tsull2121, your post leaves me speechless! It’s astonishing to say the least. It really goes on & on & on & on!Annoying comments? Sure, my comments are bound to be annoying to some posters, maybe many posters.Angry, hate filled, obnoxious, hate filled (repeated twice YIKES) venomous posts?Tell you what – let’s give it today & tomorrow. We’ll let our fellow distinguished posters decide. If the majority agrees with you then I’ll submit a farewell post and disappear forever. If however the majority agrees with me that you’re off your rocker then all you have to do is apologize to Da Man!Deal? Or are you chicken?
aftre going thru EVERY post for the last TWO days, the count is as follows.. and i will go day by day…
FIRST day alone there were FOUR “unofficial votes” for him to leave (because they didnt use “mattie’s magical phrase”)
the SECOND day there was ONE “unofficial vote” for him to stay because Jim didnt use “mattie’s magical phrase”
the SECOND day there were FICE “unofficial votes” for him to leave (again, “mattie’s magical phrase” wasnt used) BUT there were NINE OFFICIAL VOTES for him to leave! yeh that’s right.. in total EIGHTEEN VOTES to ONE
Now, bound by your OWN rules, and my special add on STILLDAMAN has a few things left to do here today. Dip his quill in the poison ink he so deftly uses to craft his vitriol, admit to EVERYONE that he is indeed Matt Hansel, and then bid adieu forever in ANY way shape or form to everyone on this board.
feel free to take ALL DAY if you want to matt, i know it’s difficult for you to accept defeat or even admit that there was EVER the slightest chance that you were wrong in any way, but the numbers dont lie and by, yes i WOULD refer to it as a LANDSLIDE.. “the tribe has spoken”.. pack up and get out.
one final thing.. i want to thank everyone who, for one reason or another, agreed with me and voted in my favor.. and i would hope you’ll ALL join me in a rousing rendition of that classic musical endeavor….“NA NA NA NA… NA NA NA NA… HEY HEY HEY.. GOODBYE!”
@KeninOhio, For children, the people who surround them and love them are family. Terms like “step, half or adopted” aren’t important to them and that’s good.
last salvo here and then i am done with the childlike matthew hansel. mattie mattie mattie, regardless of whether or not i agreed to your silly little terms an OVERWHELMING MAJORITY of the posters here just plain old dont like you. post what you want, it doesnt matter to me. the moral victory was loud and clear, the ONE person who spoke up for you was jim doherty.. SEVENTEEN others spoke up and agreed with me (with the exception of tarry who hates trolls, lol) by the way.. i JUST discovered this wonderful little thing on the posts called the “FLAG”.. i think i will try it out on various posts of yours from this week to see how it works :)
Love all this discussion about Moon Maid. Can’t wait to see her again, and wondering now if she’s a relative of Mysta who’s been sent to Earth to make contact with Honeymoon?? Makes sense that Moon Governor and his wife would want to see their beloved granddaughter again.
Sir, I personally never “attacked” you for your comments. All I ever did was respond to your posts when I honestly thought you were interested in having an intelligent discussion about certain aspects of the strip. You responded with nasty comments about people from Ohio. I thought you were trying to be funny, but others here have suggested that you are just a trouble maker, trying to stir up controversy. If that is not the case, then prove them wrong by posting thoughtful comments. Most of us are just wanting to have a little fun, here. There is no need to be mean-spirited.
All of this talk about “Pig on wheels” has made me hungry for somePork Rolls!(Badumm Dum Ching)Get it? Pig = pork, wheels = rolls.(You can all groan now)
I used to enjoy the comments section. Parts of it are still fun and interesting, but there are too many inappropriate comments now. I’m gonna start skipping the whole comment section and just read the wonderful (though not perfect) comic strip at the top. Be seeing you.
Ever since Joe and Mike have taken over this strip.. it’s like I can’t wait for the next day. This much anticipation takes me back to my childhood days. It’s great to see the children in the mix. I have wanted to see more Joe Tracy. Could the woman who resembles MOON MAID be far behind? I hope so. These guys leave me wanting MORE!
re: the last 2 comments so far…Captain Kiddeo, Get over it, if you haven’t already. Don’t expect to see you again, anyway..BORING! Bye.Per Dennis Sisneros, I couldn’t agree more, “It’s like I can’t wait for the next day. This much anticipation takes me back to my childhood days”.Same here. Love This Strip! Said before, “Chester Gould is on this team’s shoulders” (and smiling)!Finally, Tsull & Still the whatever…Give it up. Sull, I ‘ll look at your comments & not be that bothered (except for the CONSTANT "LOL’‘s (what’s up with that???)Still the…Your most annoying thing is the “live action” videos. For both Still Duh.& Tsull,: Are you 2 in kindergarten?Not that irked by either one of you. But, there are lives out there… Get one for yourselves!
Still-da- man, Please DO NOT leave. I hope that you realize that this is just a comic. I feel bad that you were hurt. Just say and be sorry and come on back. I’m sorry if anybody got hurt. Walk a mile in my shoes before you criticize, hurt and choose. Is NOT this all about fun anyway?
SO glad to see that “Sparkle Plenty Junior Tracy” was given a less-insane name. Also, thanks to long periods where I wasn’t reading the strip, this may be the first time I’ve ever actually seen Joe Tracy!
