Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for October 15, 2014

Oh, oh! Coffee taking it a bit too far!

Good morning guys!

Thanks for all of the nice comments yesterday. You made an old man feel very happy! Thanks Mike and Joe for making Vista Bill a household name! I’m famous!

Good morning Gweedo. Yep! I’m still living… I haven’t finished what I set out to do in life!

Nice tribute to Mike Kilian (writer of Dick Tracy from 1993 to 2005) in the name of the hospital. Looks like there might be a security camera outside the hospital door they just exited.

Yay, great strip today!Flintheart is one of my favourites.

yes

I don’t think you can take actual firearms into a hospital (maybe in Texas), but then again things can be different sometimes in Tracytown.

Is Coffee’s given name “Too Much”?

See what happens! Give Coffee the outfit, and he thinks he’s Vista Bill!

“Nice tribute to Mike Kilian (writer of Dick Tracy from 1993 to 2005) in the name of the hospital.”Good spotting, Neil Wick!

> Is Coffee’s first name “Too Much”?Maybe it’s “Nuclear”, though it’s been a while since I’ve seen Nuclear Coffee mentioned in comments here.

Hmm… We have Locher Auditorium and now Kilian General Hospital, I wonder what Mike has planned for the creator of Tracy. Maybe Gould’s Gym? Oh, I know The Chest ’r Gould Pirate Boutique!

Oh, and there was this.

Who was that cowboy with the (regrettably) fake gun? He sure slaps some fine leather! (‘Course, with them thar spectacles, his aim mightn’t be too good, pard.)Why, mister, that was Vista Bill!

Hi, Vista Bill, nice to see you!

Hope for Coffee’s sake there’s Open Carry laws in Tracy’s city…

Coffee is kind trigger happy, yes? Didn’t he blast some intruders at the radio station a while back?

Good morning DT fans. Keep on going, VistaBill.

NightGaunt, just ask Jon-Erik Hexum or Brandon Lee how blanks “sure sound and look real”

Yaaaay. Dick Tracy is back and not an adjunct to Little Orphan Orville!

It would have been nice to see Vitamin with the “Make a Wish” kid, but this is still rather sweet. Question for the more experienced readers, was Vitamin always portrayed this cool? In his last story he saw through the con artist’s game and now this current story showing a caring, clever and, so far, rather competent character. My experience with Vitamin for the most part is from the old radio show and movies where he was more of the comic relief.

All the politics being tossed back and forth today you’d think the Tracyville elections were being held today and not next month!
