Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for May 20, 2019

Good morning™, hotel guests!

Warbucks has pulled out all the stops and booked a suite at the city’s most expensive hotel for the summer! It should be fun for Annie and her friends as well as Punjab and Asp.

Have we ever seen “Mr. Kleen” and “Daddy” Warbucks in the same room together? ✨

Good morning™, Big spenders !

Bigbux is so swishy in his satin and tat.

Warbucks has gained, lost then gained fortunes again and again. He doesn’t just sit on his laurels and his wealth.

Daddy may be a penny-pincher (that’s not a bad way to start off on your first billion), but he can afford it, I’m sure. He could probably buy the Hotel Siam if he wanted to.

Anyway, hi, Richard! Hi, Oliver!

Now, let’s roll….

Warbucks’ eyes scare me.

Oliver Warbucks not afford something? Subtle joke, Tracy?

BTW, congrats to whoever called the Great Am reference yesterday!

Warbucks looks like a thug who hit the lottery.

1- TRACY: Hello Father. WARBUX: Don’t be so formal Dick. Call me Daddy. 2- TRACY: That feels kind of awkward at my age but ok…Daddy. WARBUX: That’s better. Care for a cigar son? 3- WARBUX: BB Eyes turned me onto this brand. He gets them from Columbia and Mexico. TRACY: I’d worry about your influence on kids with those things but they’re all into vape pens now. WARBUX: I know. Who do you think is the largest distributor in North America? TRACY: Ummmm…. WARBUX: It’s me son. Are you sure you’re a detective?

I like this Daddy better than the one in Annie.

Who is the great AM?

The Hotel Siam is in a very tall building, and is a very expensive hotel. What is its percentage of occupancy?

I wish they would call Am “Mr. Am” as he always was in the Annie strip and not “The Great Am”.

Warbucks is looking dapper. His classic diamond stickpin appears a bit more elaborate today.

Has Warbucks ever been formally introduced to Mysta? The reason I ask is that I have a potential story arc.

The guy with his own jet can’t afford a hotel room?

When did Baldy lose his money?

“It’s worth every penny.” Wow, is Alfred there too?

Correct;

Warbucks looks like a Dapper thug who hit the lottery!

LOL!

I thought Daddy Warbucks was rollin in bucks. What’s goin on here!

Another wasted day
