    Oh, what a tangled web they weave! Is Melies getting closer to having that rocket in his eye?

    In panel one, Melies is a “full moon”. In panels two and three, he appears as a “quarter moon”! Wow!

    Good morning everyone and especially Gweedo ‘the Plutonian’ and Vista Bill ‘the Romantic’.-——I sense that there will be a show down but not at the OK Corral. Melies may get turned into Swiss Cheese.-——Be happy and healthy my friends.

    So, they’re going to steal the gold? I wonder how they’ll steal it and what they are going to do with it when they have it. And what about the kidnapping? How is that going to work into it?

    My…..such an ambitious group of felons…..my guess is having too many complicated high-risk ventures at the same time will bring them a LOT of grief.

    Move not so blithely, sphere-headed friend. Do you really think you can just unload Mr. Bigg’s penthouse without his knowing it? Do you not foresee resistance? It’s not as though the gold were still sitting in some lakeside tunnel….

    A coup d’etat is in the offing…. just like in real life. A segment of the army becomes disgruntled and plots to unseat the dictator. It is now time to convince others to join the cause without raising the suspicion of the dictator. I wonder who will come out on top on DDay.

    If you steal from a thief, is it a crime? :-)

    Now, let’s see – what would “Dutch” Holland and The Lavender Hill Mob do? (BTW, I can’t wait to see the “singularity” produced when all of these story lines merge…)

    Got to admire Joe’s art today, and his shading Melies, to make him a crescent moon, and that ominous shadow over his features in the final panel.All that’s missing is Melies making an evil, “Mwa-ha-ha,” laugh.

    Also noted that Joe’s got Apollo with the same hair over the right eye look as Venus. I wonder why…

    @ Fhofmann from yesterday

    “Sydney Phillips, your comment got me thinking! I checked some of the Chin Chillar story scenes Willy posted and the same $30 million figure was mentioned again. You guys are so good at remembering details like that! I just blip over them most of the time”-————————————————————————————

    Thanks for the ‘compliment’, but must confess it’s not really deserved . . .

    Our advantage is, that we have Dick Tracy comic strip Collections or have easy access to them, When a story comes up with (say) a Space Coupe, with a little effort we can ‘flip back’ and read detail of sections on which we may have only “vague” recall, to get confirmation.

    Can’t speak for Willy, but on ‘occasion’ - the “detail” I find, does come as an unwelcome Surprise ! ;-)

John (my name as well) March is the 3rd month, the 27th the day I got saved.Christians please do yourself a favor and read John 3:27which kinda lines up with where it says; … you cannot even believe on Him unless He gives you permission ! My, oh my, man, oh man how cool is that?.

    Hiya, Gweedo. Just wanted to say that I hope you have a lovely time on your trip!

    I done some Health & Safety stuff on Thursday at my Work Placement. I had no idea how easy it is. I have my test on Tuesday, I already know what the questions are because we did a little practice. It’s a “True or False” kind of test.

    Before you go, I have a song for you. Every time I listen to it, I feel like I can “Live Forever”

    Bold plotting by Melies, but will Apollo and Venus be onboard? This is a critical move for Melies’ power play/coup, for if he doesn’t line up his supporters, he will be, as Venus is wont to say, “DEAD FISH DEAD!”

    …and so will Venus and Apollo if they do join up and they all fail in their endeavor.

    “Old Crew” vs. “New Crew.” Melies vs. Mr. Bigg. Who will win?

    Stay tuned!

    As I give Melies credit for being a pretty accomplished baddie, I can’t say that his two hand-picked accomplices are the sharpest knives in the drawer. Possibly, all three might be in for a rough ride on a gravel road.

    John Russell: Thank you for sharing your needs with us. I do remember Paul’s prayer about his thorn in the flesh. You and your wife (and your farm) are in my prayers. May God Bless You Both and Supply Your Need. Have a peaceful night my friend.

    I don’t know if Mr. Bigg is in the head shrinking business. Remember, Bribery got rid of Nah Tay, his head shrinking expert. He lost his collection when police raided his office also. I think Melies is heading down a dangerous direction in more ways than one. I don’t think he can afford a fight with the police and the Blackhearts simultaneously. Venus and Apollo better think twice before they sign on to this.

    I enjoyed the strips posted today regarding the Space Coupe. This confirmed what I had thought all along that someone has access to blueprints for building and flying a Space Coupe. It’s even possible that there may be an operational vehicle that got overlooked during the time they were flying regularly to Diet Smith’s Moon Base. I don’t remember any mention of what was done with the Moon Base either. Was it dismantled or abandoned? Diet Smith is a fool to think the Moon technology is gone forever. It’s like trying to dis-invent the atomic bomb. Someday someone will re-discover it.

    “Diet Smith is a fool to think the Moon technology is gone forever. It’s like trying to dis-invent the atomic bomb. Someday someone will re-discover it.”^^This.I agree completely. Moon technology has been “out there” for fourteen years in Tracy time. (Honeymoon is approximately 12 years old, and the Space Coupe was invented about two years before she was born.) Erasing all reference to such technology from Diet Smith’s computers doesn’t mean it’s all forgotten. Diet needs to wake up from his dream state.
