I’m still hoping that the explosion wasn’t Bribery accidentally pushing the wrong button. And, I’m wondering just how anxious Mumbles & the remaining Munro brothers would have been to reach the sixth floor if they knew that Punjab, Honeymoon Tracy, and (if she’s recovered) Mysta Chimera waiting for them! Talk about a big OOPS on their part!
What could have opened the door? There is probably a booby trap in the door for someone who will try to force it open. Shooting at the door could have triggered the booby trap resulting to the explosion. So the ones left standing are Mumbles, Satellite and Sputnik. If that is Rocket with Mumbles, who is the man sprawled on the chair? It couldn’t be Melies as he is on the floor and Apollo is the one holding the gun.
My assessment yesterday that the Munro Brothers were breaking into the 6th floor penthouse suites, and that it was indeed Mr. Bribery who blew out that exterior wall panel, seems to hold true.
A bountiful weekend to all. -————————Good morning, Billy Boy. Are you keeping Gweedo ‘the Insomniac’s coffin warm? You know winter is just around the corner.-————————Be well my friends.
Looks like Punjab is going to be greeting the remaining Munro brothers and Mumbles.I hope Mysta is recovered enough to join in the fray.-I’m wondering about Diet Smith. He doesn’t look too well. Since he was abducted, it’s possible he missed some medication. Or maybe all this is too much for his heart…
All those bodies we’ve seen are probably the Blackhearts’ footsoldiers that Melies said he’d summoned for his planned take-over. You’ve got to have that cannon fodder for a big shoot-out! (Just like in the old song: “Hello, Mother, Hello fodder…”)
Has anyone else noticed how the new Team Tracy stories always turn into a shoutout, usually with an It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad World cast of villains from past and present running about?Think of the way this story is ending and the very similar Mr Crime arc. Lots of bang bang.I miss Gould’s sense of the chase. And the focus on one villain in this chase. And detection.
Gweedo said,My new glow seems to be covering some sins goodnesses, Bill.-———————————————————————.Abner’s taken a liking to you, Gweedo. He has arranged for you to ride in the death coach to witness the upcoming “moonglow” with us!
Gweedo remarked,My reply to you yesterday about a trip to the “southlands” was supposed to be to The Space Cowboy who made the original post to me that you copied. I have a friend in Annapolis who I expect to see again at some point. I thought you were in that direction…-————————————————————————————-.My mind has been overworked this week plus I have been very tired so I missed what you said, Gweedo. I’m about 36 miles southwest of Annapolis. Annapolis is absolutely beautiful!
I really hope that Punjab doesn’t disappear anyone. he can deal with criminals in conventional ways without making himself judge and executioner too. This is supposed to be the police’s job to take them down or into custody. I just want to see more action from police who’s job it is to protect citizens. Pretty soon we won’t even need Tracy and Sam with all these other characters popping up to do their job.
As Venus lay, bleeding away, with time slipping quickly byShe could’nt help, curse the hand that was dealtAnd wonder the purpose or reason whyIt all seemed so good, like a perfect plan shouldHow did it all go so wrongOne moment it’s clear but then clouds soon appearAnd we’re left with an out of tune songAnd the most infuriating insult, is that Dick Tracy has felta need to fawn and hover and gloatLet’s see how he feels when he tastes this steelThat I’ll gleefully ram into his police coat.

I’d far rather have Dick Tracy capture me than Punjab or The Asp. Yeesh.
At least Tracy has rules he’s supposed to follow. Until he gets an update to current policed tactics of course where unarmed, on the ground face down and cuffed is “resisting arrest” and gets you shot anyway.

So this happened just prior and during the massive blast on the 6th floor….pretty soon we will see Tracy and his crew come on the scene.

Will Punjab “Disappear someone up their own existence” …?!

Translating from Mumbles-Speak …
“What was that explosion?”
That, good sir, was Mr. Bribery “Blowing The Scene.”

What could have happened to T-Bolt as she met Mysta around that area.

It seems that “Poppa” Smith is standing in as Punjab’s boss today where “Daddy” Warbucks would have in the Annie strip.

Be careful, Punjab!Don’t make too much of a mess!

Mumbles won’t meet Punjab, or will be the first person ever to return from the Land of the Magi.

Yeah, Gweedo! You hit the nail on the head! Mike ought to hire Mattie so he can find out how to do a really professional job. (NOT!)

Uh oh, Mumbles and the Munro brothers are in trouble now. They’re about to run into Big Punjab!
