Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for March 02, 2020

Good morning™, socializers!

He’s certainly not particularly welcome at the Tracy Agency! I don’t think he cares. He just shows up everywhere..

As Spock would say;

“Fascinatingly illogical!”

Painting the door trim was a nice touch. (see 2/17) I like it!

LOL!

Good morning™, coming to a boil cop wives !

Is “someone” about to come through that door glass ?

Tess is not one to mince words…

I hope she has a recorder going…

Harassing a cop’s wife won’t end well, Shakey.

I told him that. I didn’t mean a word of it, but I did tell him.

As is the first Shaky, as is his nephew, Scumbags!!!

Call a cop. Have him tossed out for tresspassing.

It isn’t often Dick Tracy makes me laugh out loud.

Boy she pinned that right on the nose.

I love this evil character.

Somebody get Tess a glass of water and a Pamprin please… shes being downright ornery here…

AND I LIKE IT!!!!

Its about time someone showed some gumption around here!

That’s just how he rolls. And rattles.

Tracy said yesterday that he had never met the original Shaky. As a couple of readers pointed out, that is not quite true.

I looked it up and it was in a story by Collins and Locher called Dick Tracy’s Wartime Memories. It was a flashback story that took place in the early 40s during WWII about a crazy professor, a secret formula, and Nazis. It ran in 1985. Besides Shaky, it featured Pruneface, Mrs. Pruneface, Prunella (their granddaughter), and Flattop. Pat was Tracy’s partner but Jim Trailer also played a major role. Junior was a kid and Tess was single. Dick Tracy was discussing these memories with Wendy Witchell.

I posted this late yesterday and thought I would post it again today.

This makes no sense. He’s demanding money to keep quiet about something that isn’t a crime. If she simply calls the DA’s office, and reports his claim, he has nothing to hold over her. Case closed.

Didn’t Tracy say he never met Shaky’s uncle?

Boy, Tess is being harsh with that lowliest scumbag appellation; I mean worse than the Brow? Flattop? Shoulders? Mrs. Pruneface? TV Wiggles? stiff competition. BTW, what’s the over/under when Hubby Dick appears again?

That’s “lowest”,not “lowliest”,Otherwise,I agrees with her sentiments.“Social call”.Right.Hitler once paid a social call on Austria.“How do you want to handle this?Flat rate or percentage of the deal?”“Who’s The Mark?”Doyle Lonergan.Flat rate.

How much money is Shaky trying to extort from Tess?

We want Edison!

Did Chief Patton ever pay off that $10,000.00 violin he busted in his rookie days?

With Shaky-other, very hard to read him with his condition.

Good eyes and memory!

But yesterday, Tracy said he never meant the uncle. What gives?

Keep pushing, Shaky Mk.2, and soon you can get re-acquainted with the original Shaky face-to-face in That Place….

So what’s with the ice creams that’s turned from fudge brownie to vanilla and strawberry? Or is this a coloring error?
