Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for July 19, 2022

Betty Moonrubble is definitely showing a lot of back today!

Actually a smart move, try to eliminate one that might interfere.

Mad Mindy is looking especially deranged today!

Good morning™, gentlemen callers !

Now for some lighter moments. I think Rose-ann is broadcasting some heat. Grandma could have fun with this. ;-D

Good morning™, all!

Mysta is already feeling comfortable in this place and Ro-Zan, I assume, wants to win her confidence in him. I’m not quite sure what his plan is, but it can’t be good. It’s interesting that they’re not allowed to take pictures, but if the threatened invasion happens, everyone on Earth will know about the colony.

I wonder if Mike has a side deal to show coffee drinking a certain amount of times every month!

I wish Mysta was wearing the original Moon Maid outfit. Looks good on her. She’s worn something similar before. I notice Honeymoon isn’t wearing any moon attire either.

“Sorry, you can’t come in Ro-zan. You’ve been barred.”

O.K …. Tracy’s strategy to help the Ambassador prevent a full scale Lunarian invasion of Earth is to …. sit around drinking coffee & making small talk with Mysta. Got it.

Fee Fi Foe Fum…Ro-zan has an agenda.

Ah so…they drink coffee in Moon Valley. I wonder if it is decaf.

RoZan is going to brain wash or hypnotize Mysta some how, she sure looks fetching today!

yeah, I think Ro-Seanne will begin to develop honest and true feelings for Mysta and quite possibly with her reciprocating those feelings, leading up to Ro’s betrayal of his co-conspirators, thus putting an end to the immediate threat… I didn’t like him at the start, but now I can also see Ro becoming a new New Moon Valley regular within the strip because of his aiding Dick to bring the rogue faction down and to justice… it’s happened to the Mole and it’s happened to B.O.Plenty… so why not with Ro?… but we shall see…

Her eyes are very special , for sure : )

So they can read minds, right? Why doesn’t their house know these others have nefarious plans?

He’s wearing a Captain Marvel shirt.

“Followed by a little kidnapping and a tad of brain washing.”

If the Ambassador’s wife read Ro-Zan’s mind, the coffee Tracy and Mysta is drinking would be on him, with a mind zap chaser.

No servants or guards to answer the door for someone as important as an Ambassador’s wife? Nah, everybody in Dick Tracy’s world is a suburbanite now (even cave dwellers). Ambassagov is the boss and has the biggest pod in the cravasse, yet no servants. How the mighty have fallen.

1-DT: I’ve gotten used to this hot squid ink. MYSTA: Yes, it’s black like coffee but…

2-…it smells like… DT: Yeah. I’ve been meaning to mention that to you…hold that thought. AIIII OOOOO GAAAA! Wowzer, Mrs. Govador can fill out a pair of tights!!!

3-MRS. GOVADOR: Bro-Zan?

BRO-ZAN: I just wanted to tell I’ve loved you since I knew you. I wouldn’t talk down to ya. I won’t share you with another boy…

MRS. GOVADOR: ♫ ♪♪♫ BRO-ZAN! ♫ ♪♪♫

♫ ♪♪♫ BRO-ZAN! ♫ ♪♪♫

♫ ♪♪♫ BRO-ZAN! ♫ ♪♪♫

♫ ♪♪♫ BRO-ZAN! ♫ ♪♪♫

Ro-Zan seems to think phony cuddling up to Mysta will win him some points.But Mysta’s mind is set to think of Junior Tracy as her “ideal man”!!There really should be some tinkering done on that,or she’s going to die an old Moon Maid.

MOVIE QUOTE

“My sister doesn’t have any more morals than an alley cat!”

Rhonda Fleming to/at Arlene Dahl—SLIGHTLY SCARLET—1956

I always say you don’t like it, look at something else and stop annoying people

It’s all the fault of MAC . He HAD to make the original Mysta explode to smithereens?

I’d hate to see what would happen if a Moon Maiden had – gasp! – BROWN eyes.

The first hostage! This story might be OK! But I;m worried Sam’s not there.

There is no pastrami or corned beef on the moon,so Sam didn’t wanna go.

Is there suppose to be an applause/cheer track just after sh says Ro-Zan? ;p

Wow, Mysta is surprisingly attractive today. Well done, Team Tracy!

So…I file my unemployment claim on Wednesdays and I was told that during the “investigation” to continue filing every week….so IF they decide that I am eligible (in 4 to 5 weeks) I’ll get those 5 weeks payment all at once (approximately $1,800 since my payments would be $358 a week) and they’re taking 10% for taxes out of my payment

As for the ethics department at Walmart, I got an email on the 18th (that I didnt see til today) saying that they are investigating my claim…which is a good sign since they WOULDN’T investigate unless they agree that “there’s something rotten in the state of Denmark”…so, fingers crossed! :)

Mysta looks fine indeed today, as she daintily sips her coffee and Tracy drinks deeply (I suppose he imagines it helps him think).

Moon Granny looks positively hot as she opens the door and finds herself confronted by Ro-Zan (dastardly renegade leader, as we have seen), who seeks to get Mysta out alone with him, roaming in New Moon Valley. His intentions are i expect nefarious, though I am not sure exactly what he has in mind. Probably not a kidnapping, since he’s made his ostensible intent clear to Moon Granny [the lady needs a name!]. Trying to romance and convert Mysta over to the rebel cause? Seems unlikely to happen. A hostage scenario?

We shall see, sooner or later….

Are they going to program Mysta to kill Tracy ?
