Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for June 02, 2012

Nice to see Little Face on board, but I was hoping for more out of today’s strip.

Good morning everyone…

I wouldn’t want to be called Little Face, either!

I like Leonard. It’s nice to see former bad guys go straight.

Good morning, VB!

I feel the same way as margueritem, it’s nice to see an old jail bird like Little Face/Leonard get it together. This strip is great again.

Good early morning VB, margueritem, Ray…Ray, count the number of words in today’s strip. Now look up any random Tracy week from Jan. or Feb. 2011. Count the number of words used from Monday to Saturday. And you were hoping for more today? ;-)

What a marvelous, subtle resonance of an old Tracy trope: don’t call me Little Face! I hope Leonard makes it through this alive and goes on to a happier life on the straight and narrow….

Personally I think we’ve been given a bunch of info today. Awesome! Leonard seems to have his stuff together.

Need more characters…

I think Mr. Crime knew all along that Little Face/Leonard would not hold and would ultimately go over to the other side. This is part of the plan. If only I could figure out the plan! Also I am uneasy about the strip on 14 March, where Panda says that Mr. Crime wanted to have payday early. I thought Crime didn’t pay.

What a great turn the strip has taken with Little Face’s defection. Considering what we know about the Mr Crime gang, his going undercover is a very dangerous endeavor.

Is Little Face at Police HQ or with Tracy? And what’s he doing with a Wrist Wizard (Panel 1) ?

BTW, the colorist seems quite confused by the wrist genie conversation today. Is Little Face in the same room as the Chief now? Do projections appear in blue or full color? Though it’s not clear here, the second arm in panel one belongs to Tracy, not Little Face.

@trimguy That’s what I thought, too, at first, and then I realized that Leonard is just looking on. It’s Tracy talking into his wizard. What worries me is that Chief Patton is near Teevo, and if Teevo knows the game is up, it could be very, very bad for Leonard if that info gets back.

dang, well i WAS #12 when i was posting the comment, but EOCostello beat me to it.. still #13 aint bad lol :)

Today’s strip cinches what I’ve thought before: I hope Little Face – sorry, Leonard – survives the story, but, if the wrist wizards are the source of the images Panda screens, then he’s doomed.

“Don’t call me ‘Little Face’”; call me “Rush.”

Leonard?

I’m surprised they talked openly over the air; I was thinking about it already two days ago and assumed the Chief or Tracy would move the conversation to a more secure venue. Mr. Crime just heard that conversation. I’m hoping that’s just a cartoonist’s gaffe and not Tracy’s.

The color mistake on Tracy’s arm confused me for a few seconds too.

Kind of late to post !But if the color coding on suits, in panels 1 and 3 “acurately” reflect what’s happened . . . it means Little Face has been ARMED with a Wrist Wizard ! (?)
