Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for October 18, 2024

so he DID distract MirrorPuss with the confiscated burner…

“Shattered” dreams.

SIGH, They always derail!

Dick’s only bi-t-ching about a perp that runs because he’s getting too old for this schitt and the running might just GIVE him a case of the schitts or the runs, as the case may be…

Good morning™, everyone!

Of course they always run, that’s the nature of the beast, but we’re running out of runway for this story, time-limited as it is.

“Aw man. Do you have any idea how long I spent making that mask?!”

The Comics Curmudgeon is right. After nearly a century, Tracy is reaching burn-out with this crime-fighting gig.

I take it that the “Mr. Mirror” case hasn’t been “CRACKED” yet. ducks

Good morning™, Glass Jaws !

Looks like he took it on the chin. Iron Fists Tracy is in top form. They sure do, Dicky boy.

See? See? Me was tolds ya he gonna breaks your glass jaw ya steenky crook.

“They always run”, uh Tracy? Maybe you’re getting to old for this time to retire and apply for a pension…

After all Tracy’s age is 113 if he’s born in 1909.

Tracy still has a powerful right hook.

BTW – Mr. Noel does a fantastic job of drawing Tracy….he looks as close to Gould’s drawings as I’ve seen in a long time.

The mirror cracked from side to side. Oops! Wrong franchise. Sorry.

I guess Mirror isn’t all that he’s cracked up to be…

He had a glass jaw!

Quick, call Safelite™ and ask them to call if anyone requests a new mirrored face mask.

’The mirror cracked, ’said Agatha Christie.

Um, Tracy? Is this the appropriate time to be discussing the diner’s eggs?

Gee, he had a GLASS JAW!

I call FOUL! How can we solve this mystery?

Running through the sewer ! Say hi to Ed Norton for me .

Look at Dick kicking glass and taking names!

I think another bad guy is going to get away…and that’s become a big annoyance the past two years.

Maybe we can get back to the jailbreak….most of the guys probably made parole in the long interim

7 years bad luck, Tracy???

“sigh They always run. Can’t I catch a break? I’ve been doing this job for ninety-three years!”

Excellent action sequence from both writer and artist.

So, is that Tracy’s phone? Or Mirror guy’s? And a flip phone? Really?

uhoh!! he broke it!!! 7 panels bad luck!

And in 1942,Tiger Lilly showed us how to preserve venison for eating after you kill a deer out of season.

It was so detailed I think Gould was speaking from personal experience.

….well well, seven years bad luck….tsk tsk……
