Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for October 13, 2016

Selfie-centered.

Tracy knew this Selfy was no fool

He would not easily break

He had no choice but in a calm easy voice

Strategically begin to bake

Slowly raising the oven heat

Tracy located where Selfy was weak

The years had trained him to play the game

He knew that villains were ultimately the same

Prunface Flattop 88 keys

Shaky Mumbles Sketch Paree

The names might be different but the results never changed

Good would prevail their evil plans were rearranged

This Selfy already revealed his main flaw

His pride would result in his arrest by the law.

Good morning, Vista Bill ! (smiling sun face)

Did a password reset to get to Neil’s D.T.

I love seeing Tracy in tough guy mode.

The flinty-eye, the wisecrack, and the half-smile are pure vintage Hollywood tough guy. (I need to watch “The Maltese Falcon” again soon.)

He’s touchy, Mr. Selfy is. Anyway, he’s off to see Bellowthon. She’s not going to be in a very good mood when he gets there.

Tracy smells a rat. I like the tough guy look.

HAH!

I’ve read past comments about how the Congress person is trying to float a bill affecting only two people and that it was unconstitutional but I point to the bill about Terry Schaivo that got past a decade ago so it can happen.

Tracy touched a sensitive spot there….

Almost as wily as Wiley bears. See Tuesday’s Non Sequitur: http://www.gocomics.com/nonsequitur/2016/10/11

Text and video interview with Joe Staton by Russ Burlingame about the upcoming Spirit crossover. http://comicbook.com/2016/10/13/dick-tracy-comic-strip-to-cross-over-with-the-spirit-in-2017/

“Is that a crack about my looks?” “No more than your alibi was the whole truth…”

They don’t look all that thrilled about it.

I’m guessing that it’s NOT-VERY-FAST food.

I say that Mysta paying Bellowthon a visit is a bad idea…

Dick is right on the case with Selfy Narcisse….the mirror will reveal All!!!

Good morning guys!

late start again.

Who installed the door bell? The first supper?

Wiley bear’s cousins?

Hopefully the doorbell circuit doesn’t include a Samsung battery.

Still no responses to any of the comments on Aaron’s blog concerning complaints about the chat board changes. GoComics continues its lack of communication between the managers and users.

.

Dilbert.com (another website owned by Universal UClick) utilizes Discus as a chat board. I posted a comment asking why GoComics does not simply use Discus since other Universal sites utilize it and it can be configured to allow everything that has been taken away. What is their need to reinvent the wheel?

If anyone else would like to post a comment on Aaron’s blog, here is the address.

Dorks who start sentences with “Dude” and wear their caps backwards DESERVE to be eaten by bears.

I posted this late yesterday, so many of you may have missed it.

This is a link to the ilovecomix Directory Dick Tracy strips from 1965. You will find the original Matty Square story (beginning February 6) which led to the introduction of Mr. Bribery.

There is also the birth of Honeymoon arc beginning on September 11, for anyone wondering whether she was born in the U.S. or in space.

Home services!!

Thanks to Ray, JPW, Neil, VB, Gweedo, Goatboy, and NG49 for taking the time to write. For Willy and every other PQ groupies sorry he didn’t post today but hang in there.

Great Tracy today! He is being the World’s Greatest Detective here with this petty-ante bagman, the narcissistic “Selfy” Narcisse! Great close shots, full of visual storytelling….
