Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for July 16, 2020

Good morning™, acquaintances of 968473!

Stooge really did die, you’ll be glad to have seen Tracy confirm, so he’s not coming back to this story.

Classic Homburg versus Fedora story.

Stupid is as stupid does…

The art even reminds me of the Go Go Gomez and Joe Jitsu cartoons.

And nothing eliminates another “look-alike,” so I’m getting ready for a Stooge Mumbles pair up – behind Coney, that is.

Hey, that makes three! And one’s already a Stooge!

Gweedo, how do you close out the bold font? because I did it the way that you said some time back, but it wouldn’t let me close out so the rest of what I had written was also in bold.

Neil Wick came back about 7 hours ago with

@GoComicsGo!

If you are using the html code, type < b > to open it and to close it. (tighten the angle brackets up close for it to work)

Doing it the way Neil shows allows you to bold A a single letter, especially one within a word. Hope this helps, GCG.

Could Binnie Viller soon make an appearance?

“Stooge’s prisoner number was 2603. This was consistent from the first time he was incarcerated to the time at which he was released.”

Did Stooge have any relatives who might make an appearance?

Dear Team Tracy, there is no forward if you’re continually looking backwards. Gould left a legacy. Hard to ignore that, I get it. But all your recent efforts have been mirrors, bouncing back @ the dusty past. What will your legacy be beyond the continuity naval-scratching? You weren’t afraid of cross-overs?

And if this is Tribune policy now, dictating every story feature a golden oldie rogue or some other plot element from Tracy’s past, how do we a.k.a. the constant readers endorse policy change?

Kinda looks like Edward G. Robinson, if he were a comic character!!!

so he was just a ‘stooge villain?’

I see a pattern forming…bore us to death with pathetic characters, lull us to sleep with days of wasted back history, then whack us in the head with jarring, nonsensical stories that pretty much accomplish nothing

Good thing they got those Harvey’s early on, cuz NOTHING they’ve put out in the last two years or so would even get noticed

September 1968 to April 1973… this mean anything to anyone?

Was Det. Tracy the one who shot him?

Getting back to the new character Coney – I saw an article in yesterday’s Spokesman – Review, from Spokane, Washington, that said Sunday is National Ice Cream Day. I wonder if Team Tracy is aware of that, or if it is just a coincidence.

“Auugh! You got me! (Gasp) Everything’s turning dark (gasp)! Tell my wife I won’t be home for dinner (cough cough!) Tell her to make sure junior eats his meals properly (gasp!) Take good care of my dog (choke!) Goodbye, cruel world! "

“So he’s out of the story, and not coming back. Not sure why I thought I had to mention this, really.”

Did he leave… a nephew?

Probably a little more than I needed to know about Stooge Viller, a.k.a. 968473. But the gangster got what he deserved. And Now You Know!
