Stilldamatt, the reason you are going to sleep is twofold. First, you stayed up way to long waiting to be first (to post), and only made #5. The second reason is that you were counting trucks overhead in place of sheep. It works the same. Good action going on in the strip. PQ will explain it to you when you wake up.
The Dr. Magpie ChroniclesPrevious chapters can be found on these dates; 6/25, 6/27, 6/30, 7/8, 7/11, 7/22, 8/1, 8/14 & 9/19
Chapter 10.
âTracy, where the blazes are you and have you been able to track down my Annieâ? Dick forced himself to suppress laughing over the phone. He felt it strange to hear someone as powerful and wealthy as Oliver Warbucks lose his cool like he just did. Tracy figured it was all his years of training and of being in extremely dangerous situations that prepared him to always expect the unexpected and to never get rattled. He assumed it was Warbucks concern for Annie that was causing him to express such emotions âIâm at my hotel room Warbucks and yes Iâve been able to track down Annieâ. Tracy quickly brought Warbucks up to date on everything that happened since the planes emergency landing, including his feeling that the engines explosion was no accident. He did however leave out the part about how he and Annie were teaming up. âNo sense causing Warbucks anymore agitationâ. Tracy figured. âWeâre investigating this possibility of sabotage right now.â Warbucks informed him. âMy people believe we can prove a link to this incident and to the act of sabotage on the Red Raven last yearâ! .Were you able to get the information I texted you forâ? âYesâ. Warbucks said over the phone. âThis Dr. Magpie of yours has done a very good job of hiding his pastâ. âWhy do you say thatâ? Tracy asked. âThe only thing we were able to determine is that his real name apparently is Martin D. Hudson.â âWhat else can you tell me about this Hudson guyâ? âThatâs the problem Tracy. Thereâs nothing about him in any records anywhere. Itâs as if he doesnât existâ. Tracy knew his feelings about Dr. Magpie were just confirmed. âNo one can just wipe out their entire past without some very important people helping themâ. He told Warbucks who quickly agreed with him. âIâll call you tomorrow to update you on how Annieâs doingâ. Tracy told Warbucks before disconnecting the call. âSeems like Iâll have to pay a visit to Dr. Magpieâ. Tracy said out loud while feeling a sudden adrenaline rush come over him..Meanwhile;.âAnnie, are you alrightâ? âWhere are youâ? Annie assured Amelia that she was fine and that there was nothing to worry about.. âIâm having a ball over here! This little vacation away from everything was the best idea youâve ever hadâ! Annie figured there was no need to let Amelia know about the little âincidentâ that happed yesterday. Annie knew that Amelia would ignore her promise not to interfere and would come and try to find her. âHey, itâs not like Iâve never had someone want to kill me beforeâ. She thought as she suppressed a grin. âAmelia, were you able to get that information I texted you about yesterdayâ?. âAs much as I could. This Dr. Magpie of yours really is a mysterious person. The only thing I could find out is that his real name is apparently Martin D. Hudson. His whole history is a blankâ. Annie was disappointed but not surprised to hear this. âOK, thanks Amelia. You didnât tell âDaddyâ about any of this, did youâ?. âNo, certainly not. You know Iâd never break a promise to youâ! Annie was satisfied that Amelia was telling the truth and after promising Amelia that she would call her in a few days Annie went back to the task of reviewing all the information she could find over the web regarding Dick Tracy. âVery impressive resume, thatâs for sureâ! She thought as she waited for his call. Meanwhile Amelia Santiago, wondering just what it meant that her source told her Warbucks had also requested information on Dr. Magpie began making preparations to get her plane ready for flight..To be continuedâŚâŚâŚâŚ.
Hmm. A bit of a dust-up on the Kenyon Farm Road. Gotta love seeing two experienced, competent experts take out an ad hoc squad of sentries/mercenaries/gunsels with sublime certitude. PC censorship precludes any sight of blood, but I suspect Punjabâs blade has cut through more than just that rifle, and even the Aspâs gun-butt has probably broken skin. Those who havenât been done in directly have instead been scared to death, like the guy holding that severed rifle; his facial expression sums it up.
Those craving blood take note: the colorist got mixed up with all the action, and reversed the colors in Wilhelmâs knife in the upper right corner of panel 3. The result is that it looks like his knife is impaling his hand, when it should be flying from it.
NG, in all my life iâve never read alley oop, so why would i start now?
i dont ignore you, sometimes i just choose not to comment lol :)
i will go on record (and i think i have before) that the LAST story that i read in tracy that was EXTREMELY WELL DONE was the mr crime saga, and i only came back to tracy (after finding it actually still existed) at the end of the abner kadaver arc where he had tracy tied to the razor sharp pendulum.. so i dont think i even got to read the BEGINNING of the mr crime story.
A problem for that poster is what happens when he has to count beyond 20, because by then heâs gone beyond the number of his fingers and toes. You know, if todayâs strip is putting him to sleep, Iâd advise him never to watch âSaving Private Ryanâ, because I have no doubt the lack of excitement heâd find in that film might put him in a coma.
.
How very sad that an epic time in history such as WW2 with its massive amount of grief, horror and agony that affected millions upon millions of innocent people and a movie that realistically and effectively gave us a glimpse of the events that took place would be used as folder by some in an attempt to insult others. That is the very definition of disrespect to all those that suffered.
Leapinâ Lizards and Gee Whiskers NightShade, sorry if I offended you in any way! Golly, please dont be mad at me mister, I PROMISE Iâll listen to Belinda EVERY DAY like clockwork AND Iâll even get a prescription pair of those neat-o rose colored glasses you wear too! Anâ heck, while Iâm at it, I might as well just whip up a big olâ pitcher of that cool and refreshing Kool-Aid you seem ta enjoy so much too!

The Asp may be taking the no blood rule a little to far. Notice that he is only using the butt of his gun for attacking.

I recall a strip long long ago when Asp bent a rifle barrel into a lovely arc with his open hands.
NOT people you want angry with you.
