Besides the morphing mansion, Mrs. D’B’s earrings also keep changing from panel to panel. Today they’re long and straight. Organic? Some form of mutant tape worm?
Oh my little aching head
To read anymore I truly dread
You would think I would be inured
For bad puns we are assured
So once more into the breach
To see how far they have to reach
Will Ms. Doko be a villain
And make the story much more thrillin’?
Or will she soon be here and gone
Just another character poorly drawn?
What can be next on tap
Will we played for a sap
Can a miracle be in store
And it not be just another bore?
This strip needs to die because NOTHING happens except people standing around having a conversation. TMS needs to end this and reprint Gould’s classics.
I agree LudwigVonDrake…….this is NOT the Tracy comic I grew up with, and I know personally that Gould and Fletcher would be turning over in their graves if they could see it now.
Yes!!! Reprint the classics with the great art and storylines!!!!!

I can’t wait to see if she’s Asian, and if so, I can’t wait to see how Locher draws an Asian character.

Sue Doko? Let me guess. She has a head for numbers and has quite the figure.
The previous secretary, So Doku, died from rat-bite fever.

Glad to see you’re back, doing poetic justice to this strip. Have any good DT limericks?

Maybe they should just re-run the old “classic” Dick Tracy but that’s just me.

I suspect Sue Doko will be a bit of a puzzle.

Never saw a comic strip where a commenter put more energy into a comment than the strip writer did into the strip!

IF this is a murder investigation, and I still don’t think D’Bozo is dead, is not the spouse automatically a suspect until determined otherwise?

With apologies to Bill Amend, I’m thinking the proper name might actually be Miss Sue DORKU…

Count on it, Sue Doko will be a total cipher whose testimony won’t add much to the proceedings.

Sue Doku… Whose grandfather is Cakoo Ru… Whose mathematical son is Ken Doku… Whose pathfinding friend is Hida Tow…

Great again, WW Interviewing the secretary, Sue Doku, is at least getting to square one.

Actually, Shakespeare’s line was “Once more unto the breach.” One of the more common literary misconceptions.

Sue Doko, best name I recall in this strip since Art Deco and Sue Reel, thirty years ago.

now, if she’s covered with numbers and square and looks like an old fashioned villain, yay if she looks like a customer service person, boo
