Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for September 06, 2023

LawrenceS was disappointed about 3 hours ago

@Gweedo it’s legal here Murray

I’ve been told GoComics no longer allows links to be posted, so if nothing appears, I tried:

email at the profile. Maybe I can get it up. (Whoa !!!  ’strike!!! LOL !

Good morning™, everyone!

Yet another guy who claims he’s innocent , but he took a shower instead of a sauna.

I bet he still uses that greasy kid stuff.

I think he did it…

Gosh, can this MM get any more boring than it is??? There’s nothing there!

“Mike, I want to do the next MM!”

Zero goat heads today!

Greetings, Ambidextrous Batters!

Sooo, Blondie combs with his right hand, then holds the comb in his left in P-3? OR, it’s him in a mirror in P-1 and the reflection is actually his left hand combing. I’m going with the later.

Those eyes are crazy looking, like the nut who tried to kill Tracy and Blackjack a short while back. I don’t trust anyone with those beady eyes. He’s GUILTY!

Good morning™, hardboiled hotshots !

I think this buzzard gloats because he didn’t do it. It was convenient that someone else who had a beef with dead guy “took out the trash” on his own initiative.

>

Charmin’ fella.

Bet you he asks tracy to “put the lotion in the basket” at some point lol

That guy’s probably the villain, he has the eyes for it.

Nothing unites a baseball team like adversity

Ironically, with his bug-eyes he seems the most like a “Simpson” out of the whole crew! His alibi seems pretty reasonable, but is it true? I look forward to hearing the others’ as well!

AHA! Water in the sink. The clear case breaking clue at LAST!

How many more days of this ?

All four of them did it…now tell us how they did it…

I thought this was a minit mystery?

1-DT: Looks like you prefer to shower with your clothes on. PHIL: Just when you’re around…

2-…Otherwise just in my manties. That’s my name for men’s panties…

3-…DAG! My luxuriously thick hair done busted off most of the bristles on my brush again. I guess I’ll use Vern’s. He don’t need it no more after I…uh…bought it from him just before he slipped and fell and hit his head on the bench and then the floor…??? Yeah. That’s it. If you find $5 on him – or ten – could I get it back?

Are there supposed to be clues in this story that we use to solve the mystery? Or do we just wait until Saturday for Dick to unravel the story for us?

Tony Gwynn did it

Simpson seems like a likeable enough fellow though (?).

In panel 1 we are seeing an image in the mirror (note the swipey lines, from lower left to upper right, indicating that it’s a reflection). Despite his argument for his innocence, though, is Demain da man? The damp towel with the blood splatter, pointed out by the uniformed cop (or security guard?) last Sunday, hints at Demain doing the cudgeling right after emerging from his “cooling off” shower. Also, his “street” jargon suggests he not from a refined background….
