Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for February 24, 2010

Gurgle?

This is definitely a

CLAP OFF!!!!!

I see London

I see France

I see Tess’ underpants!!!

”gurgle” is dick’s new catchphrase

GURGLE, I like it! Gurgle Tracy!

He must be wearing a Timex. it takes a licking but keeps on ticking.

“Gurgle” Translation: “Good Morning Ms. Leakysqueaky & Ms. Margueritem.”

GM yourself LordDogmore!!!!

I think for a while I’ll be a Mr Leakysqueaky.

In panel two, Dick’s hand appears to be pantomiming a certain activity, if you know what I mean. Perhaps that’s his commentary on this whole, laborious ordeal.

I understand what that looks like Flight Suit, so I’ll just

CLAP OFF!!!!!!!!!

‘Morning, LordD.

Watch what you say or think, “Joe” is out there waiting!!!!This strip is inane, but thank goodness for the witty comments.

Who is “Gurgle”???

OK, how powerful was that bomb anyway? It blew all the water out of the pool, and that’s quite a trick.

Today’s thought: How does the squad get in when it gets there? They’re still on embassy grounds, are they not? OK, DT got in with a gun and that should have been impossible too. Maybe I shouldn’t ask, because the answer would make no sense.

LOL @ Flight Suit’s first comment. Fits Macy’s pea-sized brain.

The posters were being a unruly bunch He wanted to give them such a punch They just had no respect for the rules He thought they were being smart-alecky fools He looked on their words with growing dread “When will you kids grow up” he said They sounded like Magpies with their chattering And like negative nabobs they were nattering But now let us turn to our dear Richard Flopping on the ground like a pilchard Tess knelt and screamed in his ear “.…! Can you hear” But his hearing was not a loss His timing though was a beat off Raising his “Genii” to his lips He sought to come to grips Gurgling he made the call “Send a squad, send them all” And as the crowd gathered round Looking at the …. who almost drowned They heard him say between coughing fits These embassy galas are just the …..

For yesterday, I thank you all

Now let’s see how long it takes for the backup to show up…if it does at all.

Ah I think I know what’s happening, Sam Catchem has been replaced by a new character named “Gurgle”.

My word Joe, you sure seem to lead a, er, er, “interesting” life.

What set off the bomb?

How did Tracy, facing the explosion, land on his face, not his back?

Oh, NOW Tracy uses his wrist gizmo. Sigh.

If this were “Piranha Club” he’d be going, “urk, urk, urk.”

Tess looks likes she’s auditioning for a live version of “the scream”

I got it! When Dick-fist-pump-gurgle Tracy threw the violin in to the pool, the violin, sensing water, thought it was on the high seas and blew up….Get it? High seas/high C’s….heheheh…um….uh, oh heck, forget it….makes as much sense as anything else in this storyline….

Absolutely the worst art since the strip originated, and even Gould wasn’t that good. But Gould’s drawing had a distinctive style that set the strip apart from all the others. This is just krep.

DatBig Guy - your remark created a laugh out loud moment.

Nuts! Now that the evidence has been destroyed, how will they ever find the guy who armed it? Much less they guy who told him to?

The gurgle you hear is Macy realizing this.

I kind of miss the FLOOM that appeared for three days…

poor Dick!– the big flooooom caused a malformation on his hands! how will he ever manipulate the 2-way tv set strapped to his stubby little wrist?

Look out Tess! Frankenstein’s monster is behind you! Or is it Barack Obama?

I never realized that it was Tess in the famous painting “The Scream”.

D a r n, WW, you’re just too good!

rshive Tracy knows that the maestro’s son stole the Strad, so he will get at the culprit through the guitarist. Or else maybe Virgil, in a fit of rage, will rush to the embassy and try to kill the ambassador with a French horn loaded with anthrax. Tracy will jump into the pool in terror, but the pig on wheels, now doing double duty as a bomb squad robot, will save the day. One of those, I’m sure.

Is Gurgle a first name or a last name? Is Gurgle a gentleman or a lady?

It could be Tiger Woods.

Notice the wings? It’s Tess’s guardian angel!

I love how everyone is just standing around. A moment ago they were panicking like six year olds.

First and last panels look AWESOME

Today’s strip has been worth the suffering of this arc!

Here I come to save the day!

We can always depend on the pig on wheels!

BTW, neat avatar, margueritem!

margueritem and channce, thank you.

That was one lethal fiddle!!!
