Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for May 28, 2011

Good morning everyone…

She’s already dead…

Good morning, VB!

Good morning, marguertem n.a.!

Yep… Hot Rize won’t rise to this occasion!

She was no powder puff, but her goose was cooked anyway. (Just mixing my metaphors the way Ms. Biscuits mixes her ingredients.)

Good Evening All! Hot Rize got her dust desserts.

I’ve heard of being buried in your work, but this is ridiculous.

i said earlier this story would be over by theweekend.

Well her buns didn’t rise!

At least she isn’t waffling over whether she’s alive or dead.

I still think Flakey Biscuits is in on things some way….some people are just that greedy……

Really enjoying everything about Dick Tracy now , great art and fast paced story lines can’t wait to see the strip each day.Hope they come out in comic book collections

I hope she is still alive. There are many others that can be implicated and if she is dead they are probably off scott free. I’m curious if the biscuit queen is in on it.

If the biscuit queen is involved it would be neat to see her arrested during the taping of her show and the detective work involved would remind me of the old Minute Mysteries strip because DT would solve the rest of the story by the clues he has found.

It would appear that Hot Rize has taken a powder. I guess she’s REALLY into her work now!

Hot Rize: “Hey! There’s some creepy guy in a mask in here too! What gives?” (evil grin)

Terrible end for Hot Rize.

Agree with Carlo Coratelli.

.Death by compression asphyxia, what a horrible demise. I think Tony Rockyhorror gonna get away with it, for now…Still say Flakey has nothing to do with the drug trade.

“I’ve got Hot Rize!” The Martha White commercial song that Flatt and Scruggs used to sing ended with “It’s got Hot Rise.” I wonder if our cartoonists are making a play on that.

Mike, is it over? Lotsa questions lingering…… Thinking out loud, youy’ve got the makings of a real thriller just now! The big question revolves around Flakey and the sinister way she pushed the button on HR.

The new story doesn’t begin until next Friday.

All the puns rise to the occasion.

Hot will never Rize again!

DT said “I don’t think so Sam” we know enough to not second guess DT. Good by Hot Rize RIP.

You know I was reading a text anthology of Tracy stories yesterday. One line said “Detective Catchem stood Samlike in the corner.” Wish I could write like that.

Isn’t Tracy kind of old to be deflouring Ms. Rize?I was expecting a gunshot to cause a dust cloud explosion, as happens in flour mills and grain elevators on occasion. That would have been more Gould-like.This is the way that Ian Fleming killed off Doctor No in the novel, only instead of flour it was bird guano. Good job, guys. I much prefer the shorter action-packed continuities over those Locher Mess Monsters.

Hello, Mike Curtis. Where did you find a book like that? That sounds very interesting to me. Like, a written description of the comic strip?

How does Araldite know a new story begins next Friday? That gives 5 days to wrap up this one.

Hot Rize has flatlined.
