Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for September 07, 2008

If Diet gets any fatter, he’s going to get stuck in his chair.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Locher takes us on a trip down Memory Lane and reprints the Dr. Froid story. That would be a first!

Jabba the Smith should get himself a little scooter to zip around in.

I notice that Braces is wearing suspenders. Isn’t braces another word for suspenders? What’s next a villain named, “The Belt”?

Tracy is still wearing the watch from the 1990’s.

I just noticed, why is Tracy wearing blue sneakers?

Why? Without him/her it would be white sneakers?

I don’t recall Diet Smith as being so portly. (at least in the original Chester Gould strips) I’ll have to say one thing though, in Mr. Locher’s defense, it isn’t easy cranking out a Sunday page. Though I don’t like his drawing style, he does make good use of -what I perceive- as PhotoShop. It gives a certain amount of luminescence to the page.

Grokenstein cracks me up. I love the Safety Tip. “Diet” needs a diet or pretty soon he’ll need 2 boxes to fit him in! And these stories go on foreverrrrrrrrrr.

I await “The Belt!”!!!
