Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for October 13, 2012

Somebody’s about to get murdered.

Finally got caught up. Wow, that Moon Maid arc is amazing!

1 hour & 20 minutes & only 4 comments before mine…interesting

“You wanna STOP being partners?” Famous last words…..

It looks to me as though one of these unsavories will be worm food or at least incapacitated by Monday. Measles seem to be the more “characterful” character, so I suspect it’s Bookie who is likely to eat dirt. Street-level drug dealers have a very short life expectancy in the rough city….

So, what is the relationship between Measeles, and the Rize sisters?

So? He’s a drug dealer. You care about his hair?

what is up with all this crap?

Anyone going to NY ComicCon? I believe Joe Staton’s there Fri-Sun.

I think Measles’ associate is still alive only because Team Tracy is waiting until the Sunday strip to bump him off.

Good morning all…

Brrr! Cold here. 30s outside and 65 at my computer. Hope Moon Maid shows up soon although I’m enjoying Measles.

Bookie is not going to like the answer to his question.

Commenters who stay up all night just to say a comic character’s hair isn’t perfect (in their distorted world) really needs to either (a) get a life; or (b) get their own strip and have at it. Oh, I forgot! They tried both and nothing happened! Quite possibly, Measels hair stylist used too much blow when he was getting Measels ready for today’s shoot. (Sigh)

Oh, for Pete’s sake! What the H*** does a boxing cat have to do with the DT story line? Let’s stick to th point shall we? All of us. Now if you want to comment on the drawing of a character’s hair I would not agree with you, but I would support your making the comment(it deals with content). You know maybe Measles is as frazzled and runpled as his hair.

De Hunt, it’s what you expect from someone in the cheap seats yelling at Vince Lombardi, telling him how to coach.

It’s “Play The Victim” time! He’s running true to form, De Hunt.

I remember TV commercials for ‘Hair Club for Men’ (or another such “hair replacement” outfit) and the tag was, “I’m not just the owner, I’m a customer.” A good business philosophy in most cases, but not so good in the drug dealing busines.

Never give a junkie an ultimatum.. especially when it cuts into his cashflow making it less accessible for his “stuff”…. i called it the other day, bookie wont be around to see monday lol

In regard to the Rize sisters; I had made the assumption that the writers were getting heat from “Martha White Industries”because their long standing slogan is “…Martha White’s self rising flour’s got Hot Rize.” Perhaps this was mentioned and I missed it. Regards to all…TT

Bookie looks like a tough guy, but I get Measles is gonna pull a “fast one” on him.

All hair jokes aside, Junior’s father was known as “Blind Hank Steele”, murdered by Stooge Viller. His mother was named Mary Steele, accidentally killed by a golf ball in the 1960’s, by a guy named Tommy McConny.

Is this an ’acknowledgement ’ of sorts ?

Thought a person by that NAME did not exist ?

I am quite delighted with the tone/tenor of the strip this week. This is what I want to see; not the Moon Maid stuff. Sorry folks…..

Said 22 hours ago: “1 hour & 20 minutes & only 4 comments before mine…interesting”. Still so few posts…and it’s not because of the story. I was just predicting what the day was sizing up to be early on.

You are being the bully Still da man! YOU are. … U R … YOU …

Sdm, you are a bully
