Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for April 10, 2020

Good Friday morning™, catcher-uppers!

Well, we finally did catch up with Tess. I’m almost surprised. Besides the fact that her arms in a sling, she looks okay. I’m wondering who’s going to play B.O. Plenty in this biographical picture.

Warren Beatty?

(Sorry. I couldn’t resist.)

Autoreferentiality is decidedly paramount with the current team.

I thought Tess was shot in the stomach.

Good Friday morning™, chameleon hair stylists !

Tess lets her hair down off the job.

Keanu Reeves?

It’s a miracle! Mrs. Tracy’s wound moved from her stomach to her arm.

Simply amazing!!!

Hasn’t “Breathless” already been made? And more than once?

The famous artist Mort Drucker has passed away. He did a ton of work for MAD Magazine.

Maybe Vitamin with make up?

She was a brunette in the 50s.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbsFKf3A5W0

So that is what B.O. is afraid of.

Tess is back and looking fine. My question was answered!

Anyone but Tom Cruise, I hope.

Ok, so I don’t have a PhD in Dick Tracy. Is Breathless Mahoney dead? Or are we going to actually see her?

My research says she’s dead and that BO tried to, um, extort (?) money from her. But who cares about research?

I don’t care for Tess’ new mullet hairstyle.

Whoever plays Tracy better have the right shaped honker for the part!!!

Fearless Fosdick???!!

Check out B.O. Plenty from the 50s TV series.

Tess looks better without makeup.

If I were Tess, I’d be thinking, Never mind who’s gonna play Tracy, I’m more interested in how theyr’e gonna portray Tracy…

Tess is fine, and a new hair style and looking lovely! A bright spot in the strip today!

Tess’s wound went from life threatening to a flesh wound. Was the doctors concern about her looks and she was given plastic surgery on her face? She looks younger, and different.

Loving the casual Tracy. Is that a leisure suit with no shirt? And that waxed chest! Who knew? I’m starting to question my belief in the whole binary gender thing. GRRRR-OWWW BABY, GRRR-OWWWW!

I have noticed that there are several links posted today. One of the problems is that GoComics does not allow live links in comments.

For the information of new posters (and even older ones who were not aware), Neil Wick has written some scripts that can make photos visible and turn links live in GoComics comments. Check out this website:

He also has a listing with links to the starting and ending dates for all of the DT stories posted on GoComics:

I find both his index of stories and his scripts invaluable.

Boy she’s out of the hospital quick

Someone asked if Breathless Mahoney is dead. Like that makes a difference to these guys. Tess recovered nicely from her abdomen wound, but fell down the steps leaving the hospital and separated her shoulder. There, that settles that. You’re welcome Mike.

So, we went from the doc saying “it doesn’t look good”, to Tess having her arm in a sling. Did anyone check this Doctor’s qualifications?

Is Dick moonlighting as a barber?

This will make Tracy bigger than the Tiger King!

I think Jeremy Brett should have played Dick Tracy at one point. He definitely looked right for the part. Too late for that now, but, ah, what could have been.

Tess is looking well at home! Though her condition was serious, it appears from the sling to have been a wound in her left arm. She and Dick, like B.O., speculate about the Breathless Mahoney film being shot in Tracyville. To Be Continued, I’m sure….

Maybe B.O. is gonna play Tracy, lol….
