Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for June 27, 2018

Good morning™, oddsmakers!

Grimm looks very nervous in that last panel. I have a feeling that he just bet all of Sawtooth’s money on a horse race. What was it? $30,000?

Good morning™, gambling addicts !

Man !  That guy’s gonna be in so much dutch if he loses.

Grimm dies!

Sawtooth isn’t someone you shouldn’t feel comfortable around if you work for him. The bet must have gone bad.

Is Grimm spending all of Sawtooth’s money on a race horse?

Will he come to a grimm end?

Sawtooth’s overconfident going out in public after he committed a murder in Tracy’s city.

Swampfire? Is the horse’s owner a Ben 10 fan? Or is that a jab at the smell?

Maybe Grimm only bet his cut from Sawtooth’s contract?

It would have been funnier if the horse’s name was Sparkplug! LOL

This race will go off without a Glitch

This reminds me of the similar-looking guys that worked for the Blackheart bookies at multiple locations during the Jimmy Choo Shooz case. One example: https://www.gocomics.com/dicktracy/2015/05/09 Maybe we’ll see one of them again, in communication with Grimm LOL j/k

1.Now… let me get this right… Sawtooth, a known (to authorities) hitman who worked for Bribery and tried to kill Tracy once before.. escapes apprehension previously and heads back to the west coast (which, oddly, tracy DOESNT put out at least an APB on him to California authorities for attempted murder of a police officer) lays low for a few weeks/months, then gets an email from bribery in prison (which, to my knowledge, tracks any and all correspondence going in OR out) putting a hit on ygor, so this well known hitman takes a TRAIN (which would take longer than a plane AND expose him to more potential witnesses) and wears a DISGUISE so he wont be noticed, but reveals himself to SAM at an after hours event and THREATENS tracy via surrogate.. then goes out to buy DONUTS IN BROAD DAYLIGHT WITHOUT A DISGUISE?!?!!?

CAH-MANNNNN!!!!

@WilliamVollmer I case you missed my reply on yesterday’s comment page:

Pat Patton did retire in 2007 when he was diagnosed with cancer and Lizz replaced him, but he returned to work in early 2011 after successful chemotherapy and Lizz then went back to street work which she preferred.

Grimm’s weakness for the ponies will cost him in the end—his end—, if Sawtooth finds that he has been drawing unwanted and unneeded attention and losing money from the working stash. It seems that Grimm has good reason to be a worried man. I hope he enjoys Donutz donuts for his last meal. He won’t like Sawtooth when he’s angry….
