Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for January 12, 2017

Finally today’s strip is here after a 7-hour delay.

And Neil Wick’s save the strip widget works wonders. :)

WHAAAAAAAT???

NOBODY HERE????

Quick — somebody put out an all-points bulletin!

Quick — somebody put out an Amber Alert!

<<<sniff!>>> I’m sooooo lonely….

If Carrion is a proxy, Bribery probably has a proxy also? I can’t imagine Bribery not to be interested in this. Is there anyone else in Tracy’s universe who might be interested in a fountain of youth?

I guess a block with an arrow saying, Wrist Wizard fashioned to look like the original Two-Way Wrist Radio would take up too much room on the panel.

It appears that replies are no longer counted as comments.

If that is so my count will be much smaller this time around. after over 200 thousand from before…..

So this may have been answered previously – what is Carrion’s hat made of?

@ Neil Wick:

Thank you for your efforts. I’m not as computer-savvy as some. I managed to figure out how to drag your widget into my Bookmarks Bar (Google Chrome) by using a split-screen but then what? Does it show up on the Dick Tracy page somehow?

So Many Vultures Out Here.

What is Mayor Armstrong’s interest in this gathering? I notice she shies away from Weight Loss seminars, too.

Last Dec., the guy’s hat was a fuzzy blue. Perhaps he changed lids.

Good morning guys!

I went to bed early. Just as well. Had I experienced the delay in accessing DT at 1:11 am, it would have been very upsetting.

So, just repeating my announcement from last night for any who missed it, I have added some widgets at http://worldofdt.info/gchelp.html to make saving the strips easier (one click for Chrome users).

Thanks, Neilwick, for the widgets. I, too, like to save the strips on my own media. I put the strips into web pages using and old version of MS Frontpage, usually a new page every three months or so.

That vulture looked mighty hungry.

As we know – But ‘The Spirit’ and Tracy don’t – Carrion is bidding on behalf of The Spirit’s arch-nemesis, “The Octopus.”

Take away the hat, and the cocky bad guy attitude and Mr. Carrion bears some resemblance to the Asp. And that’s a confrontation that would be fun to see, If the Tracyville cops have no active paper on Carrion, I suppose he and his bird, Julia, are free to carry on {pun alert!] with their auction representation of someone unnamed (who might be Octopus, as suggested by Anyface). This no doubt grates on the Spirit, and probably on Tracy, too, to the extent that he is familiar with the crime “scene” in Central City….

I was just thinking — Mr. Carrion, here, is somewhat similar (to a degree) to Tracy’s Abner Kadaver.

Wouldn’t it be a treat if those two were to get together…!
