Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for May 18, 2022

So he robbed old red jacket for nothing. Ha ha!

Good morning™, guys!

I’m pretty sure that “Hyno-Strobe” glasses should say “Hypno-Strobe.” Anyway, he drained the ATM of all its cash using his “interface implants.” As people were saying yesterday, the glasses weren’t bringing in a big enough haul.

We can see with the implants that he’s got more tech behind him than just special glasses. It seems that he has some kind of microchip implants in his fingertips. Here is some more information about that type of thing: https://arstechnica.com/features/2018/01/a-practical-guide-to-microchip-implants/

Tracy should send Sam in undercover as an ATM machine to get the drop on this guy!

Good morning™, money evacuaters !

His method gets more refined all the time. How long before he takes money to go into the evidence room to recover incriminating evidence for clients ?  He can schmooze his way right past station personnel. Personally I doubt he will take that much risk but I figure there is work he can do for other crooks in order to enlarge his largess.

A technological genius, with ideas of getting big money and fast, bad combination!

I know it’ll be too much to ask for the glasses to have lasers, but the have to have Infrared in them at least or I will be disappointed.

Oh, just realised what he’s done. He’s somehow been able to rig it so that he’s stolen their account password through a fake interface and when they finish they receive no money and he’s got they’re details and presumed money.

It’s also been known for crooks to build a fake ATM and put it someone and gullible people would use it giving it their details.

So much for people saying yesterday that their accounts have $200 or $500 daily limits. Those machines can have upwards of $50,000 at a time, and if you’re clearing out the $5s, $10s and $20s too, those are pretty big bricks to be carrying around loose.

With a super villain like this, where‘s Batman when you need him?

Bro, with tech skills like that, why are knocking over ATMs instead of going for a DoD or Alphabet soup agency contract?

Years ago, the Spiderman comic strip had a story arc about a robot that robbed ATM’s.

Barney Dahtkom has turned to evil!

Super great images today , but I can’t figure this guy out ?

Wouldn’t the ATM running out of cash trigger some kind of alert at the bank that owns it? And, a number of ATM running of cash in short period of time cause an investigation? And, wouldn’t that investigation be Federal, not local?

“Hehhehheh. It’s providential that I sent off for those was official Dick Tracy wax fingertips I saw advertised in the back pages of that comic book!”

(thinking) Little do they know there’s a giant spider under all that disguise. They little SUSPECT what is is to some!

He’s a lefty! Everyone be on the watch for a seemingly innocent character who is brain damaged in that fashion. THAT will be the villain!

Oh heck….more high tech jive….micro chip implants in his fingertips! Holy ChesterGould!

1-TRENCHY: Lousy ATM’s killed my Ma and drove my Pa stone mad! I won’t rest until I get even with every single one of ‘em!

2-…_OK. I put $30 in my account yesterday. Now I’m gonna take it all back while secretly peeing on this wretched machine! BWAA HAA HAAAA! TAKE THAT FIEND!_

3-GEORGE: Ugh. This ATM smells like piss!

TRENCHY: _Better stop somewhere and get a Mountain Dew to “refuel”. Then, I’ll redeposit my $30 and repeat the process! Oops. Forgot to put Little Trenchy away…_

CHEYENNE: That guy flashed us and you’re worried about the smell! I’m going home to mother!

GEORGE: FINE! ME TOO!

I wonder if this guy is a relative of Specs from a few years back.

MOVIE QUOTE—

“C’mon out,or I’ll fill you full of lead!”

“What’s up,Doc?”

“There’s a guy down there who thinks he’s a rabbit!”

THE HARE-BRAINED HYPNOTIST—1942

Obituary I saw in NEWSDAY—-Betty Jo Pizza passed away Friday May 13,2022.She left her small town in West Virginia at age 18 to work for the FBI in Washington,DC.

On the steps of the Capitol Building,she met the love of her life—Frank Pizza;and they were happily married for 52 years.

There’s a name Gould never thought of.

“Extreme Computer Crooks” have been done before.Remember Dwight&Denise Digit?TraCY TRAPPED IN A VIDEO GAME OF “Hatchet Jaw”?

is it just me or does the asian lady’s skin look GREEN?

I wonder if those “interface implants” leave any fingerprints.

So, the Mad Scientist/Oswald Cobblepot Wannabe is merely field-testing his latest gadgets? Or, does he have a Gadgeteer squirreled away in a Secret Lab coming up with these inventions for him, while he himself concentrates on advancing the rewards of his life of crime?

All we know, so far, is that he is short, portly, secretive, and open to changing his plan. Further revelations to follow, clearly….

Almost looks like Cinnamon Knight and Black Piranha at that ATM

“Sir? That isn’t an ATM. It’s a ‘Big Losing Bonanza’ slot machine!”
