Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for June 12, 2021

Good morning™, everyone!

Well, she does seem interested, so that’s good for Vera and he has behaved okay so far. Otherwise, he would get much farther, would he?

I don’t know about anybody else, but this makes Mysta look naïve, stupid, or both. As said yesterday, she already knows who and what Alldid is.

I think Mysta will just say, “Mmmm…No.”

I praise the strip and no one cares.. ʕ•ᴥ•ʔI point out that the table flower display is different from yesterday and I become public enemy#1. (ง’̀-’́)ง

Go figure! ¯\(ツ)/¯

Good morning™, contractors !

I hope our girl reads that paper over from stem to stern; there could be some hidden skulduggery in the fine print.

Looks like a whole lotta swank surrounding them.

We’ve been discussing Mysta’s living arrangements. Looking at old strips, I found the one for 07/09/2015 that informs us that Mysta has her own swimming pool. (This was when Honeymoon’s horns first appeared and Annie was a guest.)

Publicity for a comic strip?

Is J Straightedge Trustworthy a caricature of Dick Tracy, or at least inspired by him?

Just say no?……….

DON’T DO IT, MYSTA!

If he’s very lucky, all he’ll end up with is that drink she’s holding splashed all over him.

Mysta MAY consider Alldid’s offer, isn’t one of her jobs modeling? SO this would be a form of modeling. But of course as sleazy as Alldid is, any contract proffered SHOULD be gone one over my one of Diet Smith’s lawyers with the (proverbial) fine toothed comb.

“All set? You haven’t heard my price!”

For the Puzzler.

Don’t do it, Mysta; I have a bad feeling about this whole setup.

I wonder how much money is Mystra going to be paid for these “personal appearances”? Will she be at department stores and shopping malls? Probably! Someone posted what type of crime is going to take place which would involve Tracy and company? White-collar crossed my mind if a breach of contract takes place.

Unseen as of right now….but someone else is going to want a piece of the action.

Now I am starting to wonder with the introduction of an alien princess on J Straightedge Trustworthy, is Vera’s strip going to remain a detective series or a paneled version of “The Invaders” which aired during the 1967-68 television season.

When I say “run”….,RUN!!!!!

“I’ll say $50,000 per appearance. How about that?”

I’m not quite sure why a comic strip needs publicity. Movies, TV & streaming shows, sure … publicity drives ticket sales or ratings or views. But a comic strip? Its not like it’ll drive people to the newsstands. They really don’t exist anymore.

The most important thing is how Mysta’s “alien princess” will be portrayed in the comic… And what outfits will she wear as she does the promotional work…And Mysta will have to hide her abilities as Honeymoon does…

I hope that Vera is not so immature as to do something stupid, even if it is a parody and will draw Mysta respectfully, even though the strip is a parody… But, I can see things “going south”…

Absolutely go over that contract with a fine-toothed comb and the assistance of a skilled attorney, Mysta! Do not just ’trust" Alldid! -Who knows what devious (and/or deviant) clauses he may have slipped into that contract? He is too greasy for words, even when dining at a swank joint like this one!
