    Good morning™, all!

    This time, Tracy is on the job, but a bomb (if it’s real) is headed his way. Is this the end of Tracy?

    I wonder what “Linda Mae’s [ ]ORCEL[ ]” is.

    Don’t be silly, Tracy can’t catch anyone. I mean anything.

    We’ll discuss how Tracy knew Hoodie dude was there. For now, let’s admire his great throwing form and follow through. And he’s a southpaw!

    My NY Yankees need to sign him up immediately!

    Look inside the box, Gameboy; there may be something to help you escape.

    In P3 I’m assuming that he’s in mid turn about to run because that’s a bad throw if it isn’t.

    So since I’m in a generous mood, I’m giving Mike a C+ for at least moving the story past the chicken and Shelley a solid B for very serviceable artwork.

    Good morning™, cold potato lobbers !

    C-4 is very stable so unless that fuse is lit aint nuthin gonna happen except it buys him a few seconds head start, where he’ll run into very matronly looking Lizz on his way out the special exit.

    In the Nick of Time, The Dick of Tracy nearly nicks the Purloiner of Plunder! But Nix, instead Nabs a Bomb. (Not pictured, Tracy running around before staring at a camera and saying, “Some Days you just CAN’T get rid of a bomb!”)

    Amazing how tracy knows what gameboy looks like without the custom n95 respirator mask on…for all he knows this guy could be a collector that bought the game and the “bomb” could be a toy

    My immediate reaction was, “Why is he saying ‘Catch!’ but throwing the bomb in a direction nowhere near Tracy?” The angle just looks about 45 degrees off to me.

    Another Take  over 1 year ago

    1-BRAD: Take me with you! I can’t take another night in Granpa’s garage! He only cleaned up enough for a small cot and a propane space heater. I think he wants me dead! GAMEBOY: Yeah, sounds right…

    2-GAMEBOY: BRAD YOU FIEND! YOU WERE ONLY STALLING ME TILL THE COPS GOT HERE! BRAD: Huh? No I wasn’t.

    DT: Hey Brad. You can relax. Liz and Sam got Gameboy out in the alley. The TPD has once again successfully brought a felon to justice!

    3-GAMEBOY: Oh brother! HEY TRACY – CATCH! DT: Huh? OH, OK! Here’s a chance to show the other boys that I don’t catch like a musician! SNIFF!

    A Tracy tear falls at the memory of the cruel taunts he endured in his youth.

    Tracy will catch the bomb and fling it elsewhere very far. Hopefully!

    Liz and Sam will catch this guy. Meanwhile Tracy has a hot potato in his hands. Hopefully, the bomb squad is on speed dial.

    Will this be enough of a distraction for Gameboy to keep the merry chase going?! :D

    The whole point of TIME BOMB is to toss the thing back and forth while the motor noisily winds down,and whoever’s holding t when it “explodes” is out of the game.

    real or not,they’ll end up throwing the thing around like The Three Stooges throw dynamite sticks.

    Is Max Collins’ “Hatchetjaw/Tracy” video game still on the market?A Dwight*&Denise Digit special.

    ‘UH’ OT: Picked up my soul Sport today. Four excruciating hours at the dealership. And the small fact that in ‘checking it over,’ they didn’t bleed air out of the brake system. Took the steep ramp out of the dealership to test it…into traffic. That was when I found I had to literally floor the pedal to stop. They fixed it, but that didn’t give me warm feeling for the dealership.

    Look! Panel 2: it’s a Tracy ex machina! Out of nowhere, the Chief of Detectives arrives on the scene of the crime-in-progress just in time to order the perp, whom we know to be Gameboy, whether Tracy does or doesn’t, to “Freeze!” In response, Gameboy clutches the precious rare game to his body with his right hand and with his left hand sidearms the allegedly C4-loaded toy Time Bomb (now a real bomb?) towards Tracy.

    Will this turn into a game of Catch? Will the bomb (if it really is one) explode? Who will be blasted? Will Gameboy be captured, killed, or escape?

    Don’t hold your breath….
