Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for May 08, 2011

Attitude Plenty???? Eeeeeeeh…

Sounds like one of those 17th century Puritan ‘founding fathers’ we had here in New England (and survived despite them).

Attitude Plenty, I love it!

I’ve heard baking soda is used to turn cocaine into crack.

Is it just me, or has anybody else noticed Jounior Tracy looks kinda like Archie?

Yeah Junior does look a lot like Archie!

Good moring all…

Attitude Plenty? When he eats today’s batch of biscuits, he’ll be Altitude Plenty! High and Mighty!

I’m just sayin’. ;)

Hats off to Officer Jim Doherty! It’s nice to have a Crimestoppers Notebook that is meaningful!

Can anyone answer Flight Suit? Wifey here likes to change recipes.

See, I told ya, the colorist from go comics is obsessed with brown (and shade of).

Attitude Plenty, why do I have a feeling, Tracy will have to deal with him years down the rode.

Officer Jim Doherty, great job as always on the Crimestoppers. Having been “pepper” sprayed to be certified in the Academy, I can say it’s horrible! Messed me up for days! Granted it was stronger than the store bought, but a friend in high school sprayed himself with the store bought kind, It didn’t look like fun either.

GREAT JOB, TEAM DT !!!

Chikuku, Junior’s parents were Mary Steele and her husband, Blind Hank Steele. This was revealed in the 1930s, probably way before your time. Mary kept in the background for several years, content to watch Tracy raise the kid.

scuttlebutt, from everything I could find, it’s legal in all states with some restrictions. Here’s a links about it.

I checked on the net and couldn’t find a state where it’s illegal. With case law changing all the time, I’m Not saying it’s not somewhere, but I couldn’t find it.

Junior, “working with” Steve the Tramp, first made his appearance on Sept. 8, 1932. He was nine years old.

Perhaps they where former cartoonists who used to work for Archie Comics like those other two guys who work there before they did Annie (2000-2010).

scuttlebutt99 might be thinking of stun guns.

It’s hard to tell with Gertie’s eyes whether or not she’s already sampled some of the biscuits.

Joe Staton has done a lot of things in his comics career - including Superman Bugs Bunny (look it up) - but Archie is not one of them.

Now that’s a possibility VistaBill.

While I agree Junior looks the way Junior should. Joe Staton did work on Archie. Here’s an article,

and a Video.

Too bad it doesn’t show Joe’s face. That reminds me of a certain baby…

Actually Joe did some ARCHIE work this past year, not sure if it has ran or not yet. It was planned for online but was put into a digest. It was a spoof of TRON best as I can remember.

Yeah, pepper spray isn’t much fun. I got sprayed in the face once by a fleeing felon. Oddly enough, I used a method I got from the PRUNEFACE adventure to treat myself afterwards.

This next week- it’s biscuit time!

How nice to see that the guys that make all this happen read our comments and offer their own comments…

Junior is on his way to pick up Betty,Veronica and Jughead.

I haven’t a clue as to what happens when one eats the stuff. I’d assume he would get sick. Dunno ……. or care.

great idea on getting Betty and veronica involved, they were always 4 of my favorites. Jr. predates ol’ Starch by 10-15 years, Starch much more well groomed also.

For some reason I was thinking of Junior, Dick, Sparkle, and Tess, taking the kids to a Burger King. All the kids order the kids meal and get the cardboard crowns. They want the grown-ups to wear them too. Junior just looks and says, “I’m NOT wearing THAT!” Dick may already have his on….(grin) It would really be great if Sparkle had her hair in a pony tail and Tess had hers down. Maybe it would be even better if instead of Tess they were with Lizz. (sigh)

HAPPY MOMMY’S DAY!

A drug dealing lesbian. Edgy, man. Edgy.

What sort of cocaine is in those bags? There are different types and they have different properties. Wikipedia says that one kind boils off at 208 degrees F. Gertie could get blasted when she opens the overn door. More importantly, does the cocaine resemble any kind of flour?

ohmygod – Look at panel 2 and then panel 6 -

Could Hot Rize be Junior’s SISTER?????

As I’ve said before, YIKES!

Thanks, RIGHTWINGMORON, for your comments about Junior, Archie and Andy Hardy.

I always thought the similarities between Archie and Andy were obvious (I wonder if anyone sued…?).

And again - big kudos to SHANE FISHER’s colors! Great work.

And FLIGHT SUIT - I’ve heard baking soda and superglue can be used to fill cracks.

CHIKUKU We do know Junior’s biological parents. His father was Steve the Tramp and his mother Mary Steel. All found in volume 1 of the Complete Dick Tracy series 1931-1933.

Look at teeny looking. long haired JUNIOR today. Can this kid be the FATHER of Honeymoon and Sparkle Jr ?

Yes, happily characters age slowly in thje comic strips, Honeymoon has been around since Gould was doing the strip.

Do we need some ‘modification’ here ?

Not only does Junior look like Archie, his haircut is finally contemporary.

Far as I can tell from the Crimestoppers Textbook this week, pepper spray only disables attackers if sprayed by a woman. Wonder why this is…?

So where’s Sparkle?

smuggling (what I assume is) cocaine in bags of flour. That is either incredibly brilliant or completely insane
