Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for October 23, 2017

Hey!

I remember them!

They’re from Mike’s Shanda the Panda!

(And as humans, too.)

I see a ghost hunt in the future!

Don’t make those boys go down there !  ..Or it will be the old story, two go in none come out !

Good morning, late again, Bill and all the rest of you theater goers here in “T” town !

Well, we were briefly ahead of “Luann” in terms of the comment count yesterday, but they squeaked out a win by less than ten comments.

If only Vista Bill had been shown flying a Space Coupe on that movie poster~!! :(

Gee, at first glance, I thought Honeymoon was ‘moonlighting’ as a theatre usher!

Good morning guys!

Finally up and at ’em! 83rd birthday is fast approaching!

Shudder! I hope Speedo doesn’t get nosy and snoop around!

If I didn’t know better, the lady in the first panel looks like Honeymoon with an “antennae job.”

Thanks for the tip to the existence of the Shanda comix for furries (?), which I had never encountered. Appropriating the character names for this human cleaning crew at the Lyric, and making the panel 1 blonde (who does resemble Honeymoon) Shanda, is clever cross-pollination.

But today’s real point is the explanation of why the Nitrate’s hideout is relatively secure from prying eyes—avoidance of the area under the “old stage” because of the Ghost of the Theatre story, a tale with a convenient factual tie-in….

At the vets with Fiddler. He’s having discomfort breathing and seems to have lost his voice. Will update everyone later.

They often call me Speedo, but my real name is Mister Earl.
