    The sad part is that tiny little glimpse of Dick Tracy is actually much more interesting than the Dick Tracy strip these days.

    Hey, Smokey Stover!

    Gasoline Alley is back to its roots with this one.

    That looks like a blonde version of Annie next to the tree behind Tracy.

    That was a great joke. Don’t some of you wish on comments one cut out spam or someone not being nice with bad words?

    Oh yes, classic Dick Tracy. When he used to slove crimes in only six weeks, not six months!

    Moving right along, I’m personally looking forward to tomorrow’s Gertie Alley. What will be the final fearsome fate of the Pyes? In theory, no one even knows they’re there in the attic. Gertie could commit the perfect victimless crime by walling up the doorway with bricks and quick-set mortar. I wonder if anyone else remembers Poe’s The Cask of Amontillado…

    “I had walled the monster up within the tooomb!”

    No wait, that’s the black cat. Wrong story, similar.

    So we await the fate of the Poe-Pyes. Maybe they’ll eat some spinach and truss gerdo up on that baseball bat like a pork popsicle.

    Like Jumbobrain said: That’s the best Dick Tracy’s looked in years, so sad but true. I still find Gasoline Alley the only old strip worth checking out. It’s still well crafted.
