Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for November 19, 2018

Let the scamming begin!

Good morning™, apologetic cartoonists!

It seems there’s a catch in this “we’ll pay all your bills” plan. It gives them time to do something else with the money, maybe?

Devilia must be Plastic Woman – either that, or she’s a shape shifter!

Either that, or the woman we saw last week was a completely different character!

I worked for a fellow who found that 90 day wait hard for his business.

Good morning™, about to be plucked pigeons !

Pete does not look flattering in banana skin slippers !

Their true colors are starting to appear, 90 days? Normally it is 30. Beware. Peter P.!

Time to heed Tracy’s warning (yesterday) to be cautious and get in touch with him about the latest development…

TRACY: Didn’t you get a lawyer to check out that contract?

PETER: I did! Mr. Kleen said that everything was fine! I tried calling him today, but his assistant says he’s defending a client in Tahiti for the next month :(

Pitchblende seems to have a lot of cash outflow without anything coming in that we can see.

This is similar to the the “Nigerian Prince/high government offical” scam…

The check/ wire transfer always bounce…

I wonder why the bank didn’t say anything ? They certainly would have noticed something fraudulent once the check was deposited…

It seems like 90 years since this Polar Vortex storyline started …

Pitchblende=sucker. Devil-Cypher=con.

If Peter doesn’t wake up ASAP to what is happening to his trust fund, he will be a broke cartoonist (in some cases that might be a redundancy, but Peter seems to be at least moderately successful in the ’toon business)….
