Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for January 08, 2018

Well, now Lee Ebony (AKA T-Bolt) discovers that Crystal is friends with Honeymoon Tracy. Will she pass this information along to the MCU??

Good morning™, mall rats!

The jig, as they say, is about to be up.

Holy recognition, Batman! I hope Honeymoon is aware that Lee is undercover and plays dumb! (I suspect she knows how to handle it.)

How often can these kids go to the mall?

Wait…what about Tracy in the woods? What about Aunt Ruby?

I guess school in Tracytown isn’t back in session yet.

Given the attachment Honeymoon shows for her Pop-pop Tracy, I am surprised she is at the mall

Do we know that she even knows that Tracy is missing?

T-Bolt, Ugly Crystal and Moon Girl, hanging out at the Mall. Think about that image next time you’re at your local center of convenient commerce. Undercover mall cops, following them around. T-Bolt is the most normal looking one of the three, and she’s pretty durn intimidating. But yet everyone’s going to treat them like they’re ordinary. Except for the occasional thug, stupid enough to try and rob those two ‘normal’ girls.

“It’s my job.” As we know, though Uncle Bribery and Crystal do not, that remark can be taken in more ways than one. Lee Ebony (a.k.a. T-Bolt) will observe her charge’s meeting with her new friend, Honeymoon Tracy, and will probably pass along the info to her MCU; as well, if she gets the chance to do so covertly, she may inform Honeymoon about who Crystal is, whose niece she is. Thereafter, aspiring young Detective Honeymoon would be a valuable asset in pursuing the Crime Boss….

So why didn’t T-Bolt come in with Crystal the first time she went to the mall after the robbery attempt? (on December 20)
