Iâm not too worried about Mystaâs short fuse. She might have a bit of a temper but she held back as best she could when it came to Sparkle. She only left Sparkle a bit dazed but Sparkle may be inadvertently getting herself into more trouble now.
More interesting is that MM doesnât quite remember Smith Industries. There seem to be a flaw in her âmemory restorationâ there.
Sparkle is in a truck that she thinks belongs to Pappy but it isnât Pappyâs truck. Sheâs confused after awakening from the jolt MM/Mysta gave her. Who knows the destination of the truck. This could be the beginning of a whole new story.
MM/Mysta ⌠it just fits real good. I have a hunch that she will be killed off soon. I could be wrong now; but I donât think so.Sheâs a diabolical somebody Iâm telling you.
this story wouldâve been 100 times better suspense-wise for me had somebody not said something they shouldnât have days earlierâŚâŚâŚIâll leave it at thatâŚ.
All that fertilizer in the back of the truck does NOT bode well for mrs junior tracy⌠everyone knows that all that fertilizer can be used to create explosive devicesâŚ. plus its OBVIOUSLY not gertie or b.o.âs truck so wherever sparkle is headed **CANâT** be good!
All the talk about memories being implanted, I donât believe any of it. Sail and Ghote are phonies and liars. The cloning claim is a crock. So I wonât accept any part of that scenario, memory implants or whatever, until there is more to base it on than the claims of con artists. I tend to think Mysta, Stellaluna, and Retik are pawns in a much bigger scheme yet to be revealed. Stealing the Space Coupe andâŚ? I donât know who Mysta is or how Sail got possession of her or where this story is going. I do know Iâm loving this story and the art.
Sparkle, dazed and confused (and possibly amnesiac from Mystaâs stun gun fingers), crawls into a truck of fertilizer, which drives off. Mystaâs threatening note appears to blow away. In the meantime, Mysta says she has a hard time remembering Smith Industries â sparking the next charge in the battle over whether she is a âcloneâ or some other kind of fake. Never mind that we already know that her pair of docs are the biggest fakes so far!
But I tire of the melodrama or, as some have called it, the soap opera.
I want to see a story about a woman and her return to her family, only to find that her husband has remarried, albeit in good faith, not knowing that her death certificate was a mistake.
But Dick Tracy is a grizzly crime drama. Clearly, this story will not be told without someone getting hurt, killed, or both. And the death of either Sparkle or Mysta will unnaturally and prematurely kill the question before it can be addressed.
Mike and Joe have given more than enough obfuscation as to who this Mysta is and whether she will be a hero or villain. Moreover, they have made it less than clear which of the two women, Sparkle or Mysta, is going to come out on top again. But then, I suppose that is what good story telling is supposed to do.
This much I want to go on record as saying: To kill off Sparkle, either with a fertilizer IED or some other kind of âaccidentâ related to being in the back of that pickup truck, would be as cruel and heartless as the Fletcher-Collinsâ murder of Mysta!
I think the best landing spot for everyone would be the Blonde in Boots reunited with Junior, and the Hillbilly Supermodel hooking up with someone else. Maybe Vera? Perhaps the jolt scrambled her memories and she doesnât remember why sheâs mad at her first husband anymore^^The reason Sparkle was divorced from Vera Aldid had nothing to DO with HER⌠He took off in the night and sent divorce papers in the mail! He broke her heart, she would be nuts to ever reunite with him.
SOâŚâŚ..my question is this; Iâm comment # 28âŚâŚwhy only this many about the supposedly greatest Dick Tracy story in decadesâŚ.and over 100 concerning the earlier stuff? Were we THAT infested with trolls before?

Well, itâs not looking good for Sparkle.

It looks like the truck is moving now. The Sparkle story thread is getting more and more complicated. I like!

Panel 3 suggests that âMystaâsâ memory implants are incomplete or imperfect. But at this point, my concern is more for SparkleâŚ.

Sparkle shouldnât worry about the fertilizer until she catches a whiff of diesel.
