    Deductive, integrated

    Crime Unit dedicated

    Rogues’ egos so inflated

    The Tracy Family.

    ~

    The station a museum

    New readers come to see ‘em

    Some victims they do scream

    The Tracy Family.

    ~

    A treat.

    So sweet.

    Replete.

    ~

    So get your Mysta groove on

    A Space Coupe you can ride on

    We’re gonna pay a call on

    The Tracy Family.

    This is hard to take

    I can’t be a fake

    I’m really quite in pain

    Instead of Frisk

    We get a ridiculous twist

    A Sunday down the drain

    A waste of time

    Not theirs but mine

    I’ve got better things to do

    Then to read a plug

    For a movie, boy that’s smug

    Team Tracy must take me for a fool!

    Seriously folks, this is really lame. Guess they have time to kill. Instead of giving us a competent story we get foolishness like this!

    Good Halloween week, everybody!

    I used to have a whole book of Charles Addams cartoons. I’m not sure if I still have it, but I enjoyed them.

    Is that actually Cousin Floyd in the picture? The characters never had names in the print cartoons. The names came with the TV show.

    Over the past two weeks, my daughters had me see the new animated movie and the two Barry Sonenfeld live versions from the 90’s, the second one just tonight. The new one’s fine, but already thought beforehand it couldn’t match the great cast in the live ones – Raul Julia, Anjelica Houston, Christopher Lloyd, Christina Ricci.

    Did you know?Charles Addams drew cartoons faster than THE NEW YORKER published them, so he had a big reserve pile at the time of his death, and the magazine continued to publish his originals for a couple more years! (Very Addamsian…)

    This just became my favorite Dick Tracy strip! Just wish they had room to draw in Uncle Fester.

    With apologies to those who seem to like this, I will go on record as being disappointed and just a little irritated. Mike, will you please stop indulging yourself with all this crossover stuff, and concentrate on giving us a good Dick Tracy story!

    This story has been pretty good, with elements like death traps that are quite Gouldian. But right in the middle, you break in for this silliness? Come on! You’ve wasted yet another Sunday. I really thought I would see Tracy in action, responding to whatever came in over his wrist device yesterday. Instead, this unrelated “tribute” shows up. The Sunday page has not been separate from the weeklies since the very first strips in the 1930s. Stop it, already!

    I love Pugsly’s line. But it needs editing.

    Hey! Was Charles Adams the inspiration for Flattop Jones? I’d bet a three dollar bill that he was!

    Actually, I was hoping Lurch would grab Tracy’s hat and crumple it up like Ted Cassidy always did in the TV show – accompanied by Uhhhhhhh…

    Not a huge fan of a crossover that doesn’t have a logical story. However, I was actually really pleased to have this rather than another of those “Sunday style” strips we’ve had since the latest story started. The drawing style on those hurts my eyes, so I’m happy to wait for Frisk on Monday.

    Dick Tracy meets the Addams Family for Halloween. For Christmas Dick Tracy could meet Frosty the Snowman (Rankin Bass version).

    Before “The Addams Family” appeared as a TV series, Hanna-Barbera cartoons had recurring characters on their cartoon shows loosely modeled after Charles Addams’ macabre characters. They were called Mr. & Mrs. J. Evil Scientist.

    Love The Addams Family. Love this ’toon. Not so happy about the break of the main story at a moment of high drama….
