Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for November 21, 2015

“Dragnet: The documented story of an actual crime.”

Mr. Newman sure doesn’t seem cooperative, but I suppose maybe he’s off the hook so far. I expect that the questioning of Newman will end here and something will happen tomorrow, not that it’s out of the way.

Thinking back to yesterday’s strip …

Both Orlock and Byrd have a at least a vague resemblance to Tracy, but Orlock and Byrd don’t resemble each other at all.

This is a phenomenon one occasionally notices among soap opera recasts.

Hmmmm…..why do I think Newman’s lying and it’s gonna be found out REAL quick by Tracy’s crack crew of detectives?

Still picking up a definite “Phantom of The Paradise” vibe here.

Is there any possibility that reports of Orlock’s demise might be greatly exaggerated …?

Good day to everyone.

I think Mr. Newman is not telling the truth. He is probably a principal on these cases. The first incident came up during a time when he is looking for a financier. This time it happened when the film, I believe, is wrapping up. He needed some publicity in both cases and he seems not to mind the kind of pulicity he gets.

Lloyd Newman is antsy and verging on belligerent with Tracy. Not smart, and suggestive of something being hidden. Tracy will ferret it out, or Newman will live (or die) to regret his stonewalling….

.Good morning guys!.I’m here Gweedo! Good Morning! Gooe morning 22ph!

Newman gave Sam 3 threatening letters on 11/9

A sunny day to everyone.-————-Vista Bill must be sleeping in this morning. I hope that he is ok.-————-Have a fun filled day my friends.

I can understand Newman’s not mentioning Orlock’s death if it was ruled a suicide and there were no threats made before then. It is possible the two deaths aren’t related, and he may well believe that, and not be trying to conceal anything. Tracy knows any information may prove to be important, but Newman doesn’t.

Thanks for your comments to my post on George Takei’s response to that Roanoke mayor. Growing up as a Japanese Canadian, internment was a sensitive topic that took some time to learn about.

Tomas Texino: I don’t comment here often, but as you can tell, the board is full of friendly intelligent participants with a fair sense of justice which fits for a strip like this. I hope you can feel free and welcome to contribute to the conversation, even when the odd controversial topic comes along!

Hmmmm, i am certain Tracy’s BS detection system is starting to kick in…Newman’s attitude is not helping him. Bluff, bluster and bravado might get you by in Hollyweird, but not in Tracytown!

And got the results back….not what was hoped for. Cancer has returned to the colon and liver, so ‘cure’ is by the boards….now the goal is life extension and quality…

- Note: This was from the 11th, sorry for the delay, week has been a trip though Dante’s Inferno :(-

Your welcome, William. I’ve heard that so many times and thank you for your service.

Thank you Kantuck for supporting us veterans. I am grateful none of my friends names are carved in granite, but I am still proud of my service, it took me places I probably will travel to again & made friends that are closer to me than my own family.

Tracy’s gonna show Newman the Joker’s Pencil Trick with that pencil he’s holding !!

These thing happen ! On the nose !

Unless Team Tracy decides to resurrect him !

I suppose they have the power to do it, but I don’t know why they would.

Night-Gaunty49 stated,Gooe…afternoon to you to sir. Top of the Day.-————————————————————————-.Good afternoon to you also, Night-Gaunt49.

It’s Dick Tracy and Dick Tracy Vs. Flattop!

Actually Mike and Joe with a local cosplayer at Comic-Conway last weekend… ;-)

Neil Wick, Gweedo said,….. It’s the interaction among all of the people who comment here that makes it so great.-——————————————————————-.I agree.

Well, Joe’s coat and hat are new, while Mike’s have seen some service… ;-)

@John K, I’m sorry to hear about your prognosis, I know what it feels like to get bad news like that. I had a cancer diagnosis 12 years ago but it was early so my treatments worked and it was cured. Still have some effects from it and health problems but I keep trudging along. Hope they can do something for it and prevent pain so to keep you going as long as possible.

To give people something to gripe and groan about ? To see who’s paying attention ? Just to be contrary ?

Yeah, that could happen. Who knows sometimes?

<p<

@JOHN K - Truly sorry to hear . . .

As someone who has actually died a few times, my wish for you is to FOCUS on the POSITIVES. Like the Good YOU’VE done for others, and what little MORE you can still able *do !

Go Out - as a “CHAMPION” JOHN - when the time comes !
