    One small step for Tracy, one giant leap for mankind.

    And how does the heat change the card to ANY card? How does it know which card he needs? Why do I care any longer?

    I like the way he is holding the cellphone.

    That thumb’s got a great future ahead of it.

    I can find plenty of heat in Phoenix too.

    But what about the other henchman?

    What about Queenie?

    What is the matrix pack?

    What about the FBI’s tax forms?

    What about the fraudulent ipod credit card charge?

    Could his little finger change any cards too?

    Will King of Clubs appear in court in his costume?

    Can Big Ace fit through the door?

    Let’s hope the next story is better. The artwork is getting more confident!

    In the second panel he looks like the Phantom of the Opera . As far as the Zitpicker’s Notebook is concerned, I’m going to cut it out and paste it on my wife’s dashboard. She, like B.O., has a “system”.

    Look at it this way. It Has to get better, ‘cause it can’t get much worse…..can it?.

    In the Naperville Police Department, Tracy is referred to as “Our Loose Cannon.” Ditto Chubsy!

    Big Ace looks different in almost every panel. Way to go, Jimmy!! In fact his nose changes sizes panel by panel. Sigh…

    Love the raygun the cop is holding in that last panel. Or was it a submachine gun? Hard to tell.

    you people aren’t thinking. the reason he can change the card to any card is because he has an iCard.

    Spades, hearts, diamonds, clubs is the order of what beats what. That’s how spades beats clubs and it’s been like that forever (at least for all intents and purposes).

    Gotta get me some o’them D.I.T.T. playing cards before my next trip to Atlantic City. Where do they sell them….Wal-Mart. Oh, wait…if I had that technology, I could just turn paper into $100 bills. Must be some cutting edge body heat-brain wave-digital technology he has there.

    I agree, Grok, context is so important! :)

    Like I said before, it’s not a playing card, it’s a Kindle. You just touch the screen, download any card you want from Amazon.com.

    I just don’t understand what is going on with this comic strip. I know there’s way less space to tell a story than there used to be, but this doesn’t really qualify as a story. At least not to the degree that stories have a point and make sense. If I have to pick a single question for the week: WHY did Tracy go in and make that bet with Big Ace in the first place? So he could show off his wacky thermal trick and shoot someone in the stomach?

    That phone must be superglued to his fingers. If he ever wants to put it down that’s gonna hurt – unless he waits for his skin to wear off….
