Same here, Gweedo Murray, especially after the hat trick Locher pulled off today. Scancarelli’s stories have been goofy and flawed, but are still better than Bizarro Tracy. And Scancarelli’s artwork never disappoints.

True.
I’ve noticed that he draws hands quite well, and isn’t afraid to draw them often.
His characters seem to always gesture with their hands when talking.
Must be an Italian influence.
Most likely Boog is lying. But if there were one photo left in that phone, it would have been smarter to take one of Miss Chris going over Rover than of the bus going over the cliff.
axe-grinder, Boog doesn’t come across as the sort of kid who’d lie. I think Scancarelli just made a slip here. Maybe Rover will realize the picture shows him in the clinches with Kris, and he’ll wonder how his soon-to-be-widow will react.
Rockyracoun, Rover should be thinking that Hoogie will be a widow as soon as she sees that picture of him and the bus driver necking. The park ranger will be loaded for bear but not forbearing.

I went back reading Dick Tracy two weeks ago and it follows this strip in my GoComics line-up.

The heat from Rover & Chris genenrated right into the phone and put a flash of energy into the phone for one more photo.

If Mayor Melba had been as forward as Miss Chris, then Rufus wouldn’t be spending all his time strolling through the junkyard with Joel.
