Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for June 29, 2015

Cunning plan!

That’s a tricky plan that Mr. Bigg has. He seems to have a new inner circle to rival Venus and company.

Good morning all!Does this mean that BB Eyes, Double Up, and Blaze will have to go down in the mines?

Note that the first two panels form a single image, bisected by the panel gutter to simulate a camera pan.

It will draw attention though, if too much gold is mined too quickly, and ownership of the rejuvenated mines can be traced back to a single entity.

Interesting way to “launder” the money (i.e. the gold). Should prove entertaining to see if the Blackhearts get away with it.

Uh, oh! I just got word from Mr. Bigg. Vista Bill and Gweedo have been ordered to report to the mines! We seem to have impressed him with out ability to “dig up the dirt”!

what a gangster !

Assuming that “Mr. Bigg” is indeed “Mr. Bribery” – And that Bribery suffered significant injuries from his Space Coupe plunge – He might end up looking a bit like this …

singing working in a gold mine. Going down down down. Get up at 5 o’clock in the morning. I don’t know how long this will go on

Hi Ho Hi Ho it’s off to work THEY go, just keep on singing all day long, Hi Ho Hi Ho Hi Ho…

Morning, Tracyville!

Well, we’re back to the Blackhearts, while the Honeymoon arc is put on hold! This is one of the things that makes for good story telling!

It can be a bit trickier, if the assay office is on its toes—they can tell where gold came from based on the impurities.

What yours is mine, what’s mine is mine. Mine Mine, all Mine!!!

That’s just daffy, duck! ;)

Sounds like you’ve gone Looney Tunes.

Good morning everyone.-——-@AnyFace: Love the Dalek photo. I am a Dr. who fan. The photo reminds me of the Dr. Who movies.-——-Have a sunny day my friends.

It’s an intriguing plan to launder the gold, but my question is how the gold got from Jimmy Choo Shooz’s hiding place to the Blackhearts’ HQ with only Mr. Bigg and his three lieutenants knowing about it. It’s hard to imagine any of these four loading and driving trucks. ???Did Mr. Bigg hire some people to move the gold and then bump them off like Jimmy did? Given the gold heist is such a high profile crime and Mr. Bigg is so concerned about secrecy, it’s hard to imagine him allowing loose cannons who know the whereabouts of the gold to roam around, especially since he and his inner circle are supposedly “the only ones” in the know. Even if he used a helicopter or a more exotic means of transport like a Space Coupe, other people must have gotten involved in the move — for security concerns if nothing else.My guess at this point is that Mr. Bigg hired a bunch of men to transport the bullion and then immediately bumped them off. Unless I’m missing something?

I like it!.Get down and dirty to launder the money!

I don’t think the Honeymoon-bullying storyline is over. Even after getting caught in a lie, characters like TJ and Bev usually don’t quit. I expect we’ll see them again, with revenge on their minds.

Avenger09My condolences to you and your family.I know all too well what it feels like..

Ouch!

Sound like a lot of work for a billion dollars.

@Willy007

I also wonder how they expect to melt down the gold and transport it to the “lost” mines without anyone else knowing -unless Mr. Bigg also plans to have all them killed as well.

It’s gonna be hard to simulate gold nuggets out of what he is starting with – bars. I’m thinking he will “find” the gold and then sell the mine. He read PT Barnum’s book!

The Big Bullies are Back..

Many are saying that “Mr. Bigg” may be a crossover villainfrom a certain dark and moody burg.

Tellum may know more than he’s tellin’ …

… Or even knows he knows.

Wouldn’t it be interesting if the gold were tested and it turned out to be Moon Gold?

By the way, that’s Purdy Fallar in panel 2.

It’s nice being back to “Dick Tracy”, but the whole idea of one person’s mines suddenly “discovering” unmined the exact amount of gold stolen…..c’mon! Also find it hard to believe hardened killers like BB Eyes and Doubleup would just hand over a billion dollars worth of gold to someone else, and be happy with a little bonus and some praise, lol……c’mon again!

Listen up, Gweedo! Mr. Bigg just sent an email and wants the two of use to work the midnight shift tonight. Get your pick, shovel, and a large pan ready. Me and Ricky will pick you up in the death coach. Ready?

Gweedo asked,Hey, Bill, can you bring a date for me too ?-——————————————————————————-

We’ll bring Rikki’s twin sister, Riga. Our work in the mine comes first, though.

@AnyFace: Love the Dalek photo. I am a Dr. who fan. The photo reminds me of the Dr. Who movies.

Started watching one from ’66 once, as a YouBoob reprint and when they kept calling him “Dr. Who”, that did it for me !!

(not in a good way)____________________

There’s also this “Doctor Who” (… “Dr. Hu?) from Toho Studios’ *”King Kong Escapes"* …

Should’ve added this to the end of the “Dr. Who” Post …

@AnyFace

Does Dr. Hu’s transport look anything like this ?____________________

Could be, rabbit.

Could be.

Bonus Points for anyone who can tell who provided ‘Dr. Hu’s’ voice for the English language dub of King Kong Escapes.
