Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for August 22, 2017

Well, she called him on it.

He won’t stop. Even if she does find a place, Silver will start scamming. And then will get caught.

Good Morning Vista Bill and friends! First of all, wasn’t that a fun eclipse yesterday?! Second, these two “products” be bickering too long.

With that anger she ‘s brewing I wonder if there’s going to be a killing when Domain finds out that his happy team is on the verge of splitsville ?  Somebody’s not coming out of this alive !

Good morning guys!

A tad late again!

Did Sprocket’s hair get a bit longer in the last panel?

Over on Dick Tracy Depot, Mike has released a sneak peek of a new villain to be featured in December. He’s called Sawtooth.

He looks like he could be dangerous!

He does remind me a bit of Jaws from the James Bond films, one of the few Bond villains to ever appear twice. Also, I can’t help thinking about sharks when I look at the sketch.

Sprocket is looking at faraway real estate offerings with a few acres. Nice. How are they going to afford that? Being escaped prisoners, does she really think they can settle into the local population and landscape? ……… unless, Silver plans to get Bea to pay PD in cash, stealing it and running.

If Sprocket really wants to blend in somewhere, then she needs to do two things: Cut her hair and lose the shades.

They’re like the Lannisters except he is Cersei and she is Jaime.

I’m glad to see that this “perfect sibling couple” have at least one more typical sibling failings: bickering.

When Tracy gets around to asking Bea what the scammer looked like, she can say, “Doonesbury”

Silver, the professional scammer, now realizes she’s been scammed by her own brother.

Whoa! What seemed like a looming crack in the sibling alliance yesterday, today has erupted into a full-blown blow-out. And, for my money, Silver is looking all too calm as Sprocket vents on him; maybe he considers his irascible sister just as expendable as Domain does. Would he kill or otherwise disable his own clingy, emotional, oddball sister if he thought she was getting in the way of his scamming genius? Though it is Sprocket who is unloading her pent-up frustration here, it is Silver who still is team captain. I fear Sprocket may “get out” in a body bag….

The lady means business!
