I guess it’s safe to call this arc over. 121 days (started 11/25). Judge Parker hadn’t finished it story arc that amount of time, but got sidetracked with other subarcs. Mary Worth finished it’s arc in 112 days. And as someone pointed out Rex Morgan is still working on its arc and probably won’t be done for a while.
I’m not sure I can take any more of this strip, while the others take as long they feel as if they are moving as slow. I stuck it this long because I enjoy reading the comments, but I think reading just Sunday will keep me up to date of the story. I’ll give the new arc a week to interest me.
Don’t do it, Dick! It’s a permanent solution to a temporary problem! Besides, if you just can’t stand to hear any more music, you can wear earplugs! Besides, choking yourself with your necktie is not really such a great method. You have a gun, you know – or did you forget again?
We bid a not so fond adieu to Pops and the band
And too sonny boy too, laid low by Virgil’s right hand
“Kid Vicious” never gained the fame that he sought
Only a small plot of earth on the farm that he bought
The explanations we received were insipid at best
As if Locher were perpetrating some kind of jest
Questions unanswered are par for the course
Which shouldn’t be surprising, considering the source
What new and exciting adventure are we soon to see
We’ll have a better time banging our head on a tree.

Beware Tracy; Tess is about to suggest going out for a nightcap!
You know what happens when you go out with Tess…

Another adventure begins for DT. Where will Tess take him to relax this time? My money is on a baseball game.

Since they didn’t get to hear any of the concert I wonder if they got a ticket refund?

Gweedo Murray said, “The title of the story will be: “Take Me Out at The Ballgame”.”
I love it!

When was the last time Tracy slept?
The circus was during one day…
Then, apparently, that case solved itself in time for Tracy and Tess to go out for some longhair music that very same evening…
I suppose the gala event at the Embassy happened that next day?
So maybe he’s not sleep-deprived? Not yet?
So, so, mind-boggling.

There’s so many comments so fast I can’t keep up. I loved today. It’s just very smooth looking, very well drawn. Plus obvious foreshadowing.

I’m sure the maestro has no interest whatever in “pop”ping up.
