Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for January 26, 2023

His monkey brain is always churning.

Good morning™, all!

Nice car, but I think he has more than a nuisance on his hands. Surprisingly enough, he is thinking of contacting Kryptonite. The old “turning people against each other”! It could get complicated, unless he chickens out.

Nice car for an ape!

Anorexic steering wheel!

With all these clients Kryptonite could start franchising his services; “Got a problem you need removed? Call 1800-Kriptoe!”

50 -50 we get another car crash !

Yesterday someone posted a racist comment.

Today someone posted a political comment.

Can we possibly control ourselves and keep this board about Dick Tracy?

Chances are that Kryptonite didn’t get where he is by being taken for a fool by his clients/customers.

Dekko is going to hire Kryptonite to kill 99, 99 is going to hire Kryptonite to kill Dekko. At this rate Kryptonite will be able to take early retirement.

What are odds that the villian and villainess know each other? Yep! Probably a long shot. (no pun intended)

Maybe it’s just me but why did I think Art drove over to Paul’s apartment in a SUV? My eyes and my mind must have been playing tricks on me.

Good morning™, bananas for brains !

I have to give Artie credit for not giving up and running away tho’ that might be his best option. While he is driving and planning to call Krypto, 99 may already be doing that, if she is smart.

P.2. Car looks really “Boss” (302 ?).

Agent 99 and Kryptonite are going to compare notes…they’ll come to the conclusion that Art Dekko lies like a rug and can’t be trusted.

How did Art Dekko get to where he is, anyway?

guess they can train chimps to drive even the classiest-looking cars… but anyways, here goes Art into panic mode, but through it, he still thinks he can pull a trump card out of his-ass… and that’s the only place at this point where Art can get it from…

Kryptonite invites Dekko and and 99 to drop by a motel at the same time to make the payments. He locks them in the same room, takes the money and runs. Art and 99 snuff each other. Easiest job ever.

I don’t like that scumbag driving a nice car ! It makes it look like ‘ Crime Does Pay ‘ !!!

“And how did this ‘99’ broad get my name? It sure wasn’t from Paul, because he never knew me until I showed him the business end of a harpoon.”

A bit of irony here…Ordinarily, bananas would be Art Dekko’s kryptonite. But, in this specific case, Kryptonite is his actual kryptonite! Now, if only he had a secret identity…

What Chimpy is tooling around in.

He better get paid in advance for both those jobs.

“Art Dekko didn’t get where he is by talking to himself about how he got to where he is…”

“I’m a friendly stranger in a red sedan would you like to ride around in my car” “I’m your vehicle baby, take you anywhere you want to go” (Apologies to the "Ide’s of March band)!

" 99 " is a Fox for sure , I was hoping to see her again today , Whew ! Maybe tomorrow : )

he’s going to owe so much to kryptonite he won’t have a profit on the sale

I am so lost in this storyline, and I am so homesick for Moon Valley!! Would someone please help me out with a Reader’s Digest Condensed Version of what the heck is going on please??

Regarding the Karen comment and discussion from two days ago, I didn’t find it racist, just unnecessary…I read DT for my personal enjoyment…social media discussions are, like, destroying, like, our, like, younger generation…to the majority nothing matters more than their phone…

He looks like Mojo Jojo of the Powerpuff girls

1-WOWZER! WHAT A CAR!!!

2-HOW LUCKY AM I???

3-After that DaVinci sells, I’ll be able to drive this baby off the lot. I’ll shove the cash right up that uppity car salesman’s nose! And then I’ll peel outta here like ERRRRRRRRRRR SQUEALLLLLL VROOOM VRRROOOOOOM Uh oh. Here he comes. DON’T LEAVE ‘EM UNLOCKED IF YOU DON’T WANT ME TO SIT IN ‘EM! OK OK. I’m leaving! Quit shoving!

That’s not the right car for him. He should be driving this:

Back in the Locher days, this comment board was a BATTLEGROUND. I usually sat on the sidelines and watched the show. It was so bad that on occasion the moderator would carpet bomb the entirety of comments for a day. I do miss some of the fun from that time, though. Remember Grockenstien? He was always good for rattling Mattie’s cage.

Kryptonite will kill both of them and then fall out of a window.

Gee, Art, did you really expect Paul to tell you everything? And, way to cheap things out. Instead of paying Kyrptonite to take out “99,” you egg him on to take her out at no charge to you, by saying she threatened to tell Tracy about how he killed Paul.

That’s because nobody else pays any attention to you.

LOL!

“You son Sylvester is a no-good,irresponsible,loudmouth bum!!”

If he isn’t a crook,it’s only because he hasn’t the brains or the ambition even to BECOME a crook!"

My nickname for Gweedo is Hillbilly Gweedo but fortunately for his goats their nickname for him is Speedo Gweedo!

It galls ME that he’s driving that fancy car,too.Excuse me if I don’t sympathize when he complains he’s about to lose money on a deal.

I hope Kryptonite is out of town.I even want to warn HIM about hanging out with Dekko.

Sure,Art.As soon as you get back to the shop,call Krypto.

Ignore the guy with the pointed chin,listening in on the extension in the back room.

Ray Toler,a Chicagoan,might be able to give more details.NY TIMES real estate column mention that The Tribune Tower has been converted to luxury apartments.

99 eh. Would you believes there is 86 ways to gets her? But only if you is Smart enough.

Dekko’s (new) ride looks a bit like a Ferrari (right color, more or less). Maybe he’s compensating for what he may feel he lacks. Having already hired Kryptonite to kill Paul Chandler, now he hopes to motivate him to off Chandler’s “agent, 99” as a personal matter, avoiding incurring more expense.

But, as we’ve seen, 99 has a plan to goad Kryptonite to hit Arty. For whose deal will Kryptonite go? Either or neither? Kryptonite is a pro; no freebies for anyone?

Could we be headed for a three-way “circular firing squad” situation? Or will the MCU get in gear and intervene?
