Friday Foster was a great serial comic strip—and one of the first with a black female lead. Interestingly, I just bought a few weeks back several clipped stories.
There was a blaxsploitation film as well, with Pam Grier no less, though I didn’t find it particularly good or faithful.
I may have to get earplugs, there is so much shouting in this MM!
And, to be bluntly honest, I do not like the way Tracy looks. His trademark square chin is too wedge-like, and as mentioned by several commenters above, he looks more like J. Straightedge Trustworthy than like true Tracy. And the over-sized fedora doesn’t help his image. (The ladies, Friday and Francesca, still look fine, except for the gaping/shouting mouths.)

Andrew did a pretty good rendition of Tracy.

This Tracy is jarring. I know DaJellyBelly likes him, but me, not so much.

I had a great pun here but I’d better shut up.

Tracy’s coat is such a bright yellow it’s giving off an aura.

For this series, Tracy must be shopping at Paris Hatters… in San Antonio, Texas.

That chin on Tracy is sharp enough to cut someone.

I don’t like this rendering of DT. It looks like he’s “really” happy to see her again.
