Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for May 17, 2017

Hmm …

Might ‘Middle Margie’ have blown her alibi …?

I just noticed that Little Margie is “Miss” and the other two are “Ms.” I suppose that Little Margie is the youngest.

Sam is going to remember this place for his future shopping but I have a feeling that it has no future. These three are not going to be around all that much longer.

What is that mask he has? Maybe a pirate?

Tracy might conceivably wrap this up by Sunday.

Say, those are two familiar looking profiles.

Margie Thatcher, eh? After Big Margie is taken down, you think Middle Margie will run for mayor?

‘Dick Tracy’ is up by 80 Subscriptions since this story began.

Just sayin’ …

’Dick Tracy’ is up to 4 straight days under 100 comments.

Just sayin’ …

This is really the first time we have seen Middle Margie clearly and face-on. Her appearance seems like she might be the oldest of the three. Big Margie is obviously a loose cannon and Little Margie is not very bright. I’m thinking that Middle Margie is likely the brains of the outfit.

I am hoping that Neil is correct and we are in for a good chase.

I really like this sequence. We’re getting to see Tracy and Sam actually working a case. Sam is all smiles, luring the other two into the room. He gets people to open up, and gives Tracy his opportunity.

Big Margie is the type who likes to talk people into doing what they know they shouldn’t. I’m sure Tracy will find she has a long list of crimes going back to her childhood.

I like Middle and Little Margies; I don’t think either would have gotten involved in the robbery if Big Margie hadn’t talked them into it. Middle Margie really seems to be focused on the store, and I’m sure that’s how Big Margie talked her into it, with a line like, “It’s the only way we can save the business.” And Little Margie is just too reliant upon the others, as if she was told “they’ll make sure you’re all right.”

Vandalism in a Jewish cemetery is actually happening these days in Philadelphia. Tombstones toppled yesterday plus other occurrences.

Good afternoon guys!

Very late start today. Back to read the comments later.

Middle Marge is actually pretty…….. She’ll have lots of girlfriends in the big house.

The new GoComics Jumping Jacks (a.k.a. Comments section) is so frustrating and unmanageable! I thought I had made a stand-alone comment earlier on, but it turns out to have been near the end of a string of c. 30 replies to a comment by Neil. I really do not like this auto-jump to Feature Comment or auto-jump to the top of the thread of comments, or auto-jump to who-knows-where!

:( looks like under 100 again.

Is Tracy actually smiling a tiny bit at Middle Margie (the person most likely to have been the armed robber)?
