What is Bullet Broad looking at in the first panel? When I normally speak to people and am trying to convince them of something, I don’t just suddenly flail my arms and turn my back to the other person.
Dick is wondering in the last panel: “Why does Tess’s finger stink of poop?”
Tracy was getting that feeling of being left out again. He hated when he felt that way. It made him feel useless, obsolete and over the hill. He saw how everyone at HQ snickered behind his back whenever he came into the office. He heard everything they were saying about him. He knew that “Chief” Lizz was trying to force him to retire and replace him with that moron Lt. Teevo. As long as he knew his dear wife Tess still believed in him none of that mattered. It pained him to see how Tess and this Gumby clone had bonded so quickly.
“Don’t I have anything to say in this matter”? Dick managed to squeak out.
Angelorious was annoyed that Dick was interfering with her and Tess’ celebration dance. She loved doing the Macarena with her partners. She knew what shut the men up.
“We’ll make millions”. She told Dick while putting on her best smile.
Tess knew what made Dick click. He was soooo easy to manipulate. She chuckled as she remember how she convincened him to spend the night in the haunted house last year. Walking over to him, Tess looked straight into Dicks eyes and putting her finger on his lower lip said; “Dick, we have to do this”.
“Dang”! Dick thought. “She’s doing it to me again”.
Angelorious, looking on was so impressed with Tess’ style that she began to dance with the wall again.
I have followed this srrip for more than 60 years, always amused by its eccentric characters and its simplistic views on crime and morals. But it’s become just too stupid. I have hereby sworn off.

I share your pain, my brother, at the demise of this once great strip. But I sure have fun knocking this nonsense.

Looks like it’s two to one, Dick; a bullet headed clown, and Tess Trueheart Tracy.

MonkeyGirl’s scarf is always trailing away from the camera, no matter which way she turns! And why is she trying to hug the wall in panel 1?

Didn’t Tracy get a big reward for his deeds last year? Didn’t he give it all away?
“Dick, we have to do this”? Don’t Tracy! Professor Noll notwithstanding, anyone who tells you “we’ll make millions!” is selling a Shamwow.
