Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for March 20, 2021

Good morning™, fishers!

Tiger Lilly must be pretty bad if he’s about to be hospitalized. He doesn’t even look conscious at the moment.

I don’t suppose that any of them knows where either Aquarius or Auntie Bellum are right now.

Remembering Morrow on this the 3rd anniversary of his shocking and unexpected departure from Tracyville.

I miss his wit, weird humor and his long distance friendship.

More Lizz, less Sam!!!

Dang Tiger Lily’s soft if a stick over the head knocked him out. One kick shouldn’t have done it either.

Good morning™, crook collectors !

The broom makes a clean sweep; two down, three to go. Does Lizz have to go saying that in ty’s presence ?  He may clam up just to be contrary. They’re going to have to offer Ty a sweet deal to get anything but that will all change if they ever connect him to actually snuffing Dollar Bill.

I’m really glad they didn’t have Ty make a run for it. Not sure I could handle two chases in one week if one didn’t end in a Tracy uppercut.

Tiger won’t be happy when he comes to and finds himself surrounded by cops, but at least he’ll be in a hospital getting treated for hypothermia and a couple of concussions.

“No sign of Aquarius.”

Well, it’s visible at latitudes between +65° and −90°. It’s best visible at 9 p.m. during the month of October.

Seems this is the age of Aquarius…..

Good storyline, but the ending is too much fast, for me.

Ty: “It’s a frame-up. She put the dope in my pockets. I’ve gone straight! I’m only here to find my dog!”

Not that any one coming to the house will have any idea where either is. And, as I complained yesterday, why did Aquarius wait hours to send out the warning that the police were… Oh, yeah… Arc is coming to an end and needed to tie up the loose ends instead of having an unknown number of pushers scatter across the country.

What happened to the Pouch? Did I miss something?

1-DT: _Verbal Memo To Self: Self, why was no one the least bit interested in the fake gas leak? Who would’ve planted it and why? Self, what was Le Tigre Lilly (aka Frenchy) doing in a locked root cellar? Self, where’s the old gal we came here to check on? Self, what are we going to charge Motorhead Moe with? We don’t really have anything on…

2-DOLL FACE: IXNAY DICK! You didn’t connect to the Memo Function. You’re just broadcasting and Motorhead heard that last bit.

MOTORHEAD: YEAH! THANKS FOR THE INFO, YA DUMB COPPER!

DT: …him but I think we can beat something out of him with the good ol’ “Phone Book To The Head Persuader”. And if that doesn’t work, the ol’ “Vice Grips to the…

DOLL FACE: DICK! WE CAN HEAR YOU!

Thanks Again Captain (Neil) Obvious. BTW, who really thinks this arc is “ending”. And who even remembers how it started. Right about when the pandemic hit? Or does it just feel that long? Also, I just got the final IDW end of the Gould era, Dick Tracy Vol. 29 yesterday. Sad to see Chet wind things up.

Hey Lizz, I’ll tell you anything you want to know.

An ambulance for poor cartoon-whipping boy, Tiger Lilly? B.O. must have really done a number on him!

And Ty decided that discretion is the better part of valor when faced with Lizz’s 9mm close-up. So he’s into the paddy-wagon while TL’s into the meat wagon. More to come!

I bet the court judge or judges on duty will be thrilled with this influx! “Thrill me, detective!” (Great line from an ’80s B-movie.)

I don’t know why Tracy says it’s been a “busy night.” It seems like Liz & Gravel Gertie did all the work.
