Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for March 22, 2019

Good morning™, lady friends !

A big let down for hardcore action fans. We can imagine some serious detectiving is going on behind this scene and like ‘The Count’, Bar-Tar will be having his day’s rest after a good night’s out feast !

“Like drips from the faucet tap, so go ‘The Ways Of Our Wives’”!

So we are finally going to learn what happened between Bonnie and Joe in strip, Behind the scenes their relationship just disapperared because of changes in the creator team and copyright issues. Here’a hoping that things finally go right for the two of them.

Tracy is an action series. But it is one in which we are supposed to care something for the characters. An occasional story that deals with them as “people” and not just as heroes is good for the strip.

Stupid aside joke, do the Plenty have a baby called “Sprinkle Plenty”

Ms. Sparkle knows something about someone from the past coming back, now doesnt she? ;)

Bonnie hairstyle reminds me of Betty Davis in “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?”

This is the first time I can remember that Bonnie, and Sparkle are portrayed together. A lovely view of the two girls who Gould wanted to be the big thing (and sadly didn’t happen)

I can’t believe my ZZZZzzzz’s were removed. Another random act of nature?

LOL!

Alt Script: 1- ELLIE MAE: You all seen any critters around here? OTHER GIRL: Who are you and who said you could come in??? 2- ELLIE MAE: I’m yor neighbor Ellie Mae. Say…what’s that thing around yor waist? OTHER GIRL: It’s a belt moron. ELLIE MAE: I’ll be. I jist use a scrap o’ rope to hold up my pants. 3- OTHER GIRL: Wait a sec. Do you live with that big hunk I see driving that wreck of a truck sometimes? ELLIE MAE: I shore do. That’s Jethro my cousin. Pa says we’re to be married soon. OTHER GIRL: Yeah, from what I’ve seen of you lot that makes a lotta sense.

HEY!!! I SEE TRACY’S TRENCHCOAT IN PANEL #2!!!!!!

Sparkle and Bonnie are two fine-looking blonde ladies (though for some reason over at Comics Kingdom the colorist has given Sparkle reddish hair), who need to clear the air for the young teacher while at the same time filling in background story for us.

I’m good with that….
