Wow. This is the best Sunday wrapup and move-forward Dick Tracy has seen in, well, since before I started following it again years ago. I am really grateful for the opportunity-p
BillT, I’ve never seen a senario exactly the way you describe it, but the Wrist Geenee can project large images on a wall, and I imagine it can enlarge any specific section for closer scrutiny if needed.
My problem IS why arm Tracy with such a device with multiple features, and when a situation arises where it could save a life or defend himself, he doesn’t use it. Happened several times in the past 5 years.
I like the fact that the crack is biscuit shaped.Gertie just fingered Earl and Flakey, no mention of Hot Rize. May give her time to attempt an escape while Tracy is questioning her boss.
As always another beatuiful Sunday strip. Great Job!!!
If Hot Rize was smart, she’d get the “stuff” outta that building is a hurry. Surely she knows they are coming…. didn’t Tracy tell her Earl’s truck had traces of coke in it?
Ray C – Not the radio version, but the TV version was in syndication when I was a little pup. All I really remember is the opening. After that I’d get bored and go outside. I was a regular Rusty Trail back then. Now I’m more like one of the Plenty family.
Awesome strip today. Now I’m hungry for some of those cocaine biscuits.
And I don’t care if she is a killer, I’m still in love with Hot Rize. I want to “make flakey biscuits” with her, if you know what I mean.
Getting a warrant to search a flour plant for cocaine. That sounds like a modern day needle in a hay stack. Tracy and Sam are gonna need alot of back up. Since they’ll be searching for cocaine hidden in flour bags. They’re gonna have to check and test pretty much every bag.Unless, they specifically go after the ones with the green pull string. The Flakey Biscuit Company could be in big trouble, sell your stock, NOW!!!
New artists and writers have rebooted this strip back into something to be proud of. I may be the only one here who grew up on the “sci-fi” days of the 60’s DT, but with Diet Smith’s explanation as to why we no longer see the space coupes and other fun toys of that time, we are left with classic Tracy solving crimes with just enough tech to keep it cutting edge. Modern settings. Believable continuity. Great art. Great stories. Keep up the fantastic work, guys!
I checked with a detective and with the addition of baking soda, you can make something that resembles biscuits with cocaine. Wouldn’t eat them with butter through.It’s like Prune-0, Basically it’s prison or jail moonshine. Take one toilet and make it off limits. Mix in Benadryl or allergy medicine. Let lunch fruit juice ferment, srir in, add molded bread to mix. I UNDERSTAND it will make you drunk but mind you I never tried it.
@**Det.DanDone:** Searching the factory shouldn’t be too hard if they bring along that dog.
@**Sydney Phillips:** That’s one problem with any idea about enhancing the various wrist gizmos. What do different cops need? What’s useful, and what proves to be information overload?
I don’t know that any kind of image projector would be useful with a wrist device. Unless Diet Smith has developed some very powerful, very small batteries, projecting a bright image could be a problem even in a darkened area. Done in broad daylight it would be even harder to get an easily-visible image. (The proposal implied that unlimited energy was available, however.)
Projecting from the wrist genie onto a wall might be useful for morning updates at Police Headquarters, if they actually do that. Or do I watch too much TV.I remember Sgt Preston, Jack Armstrong, and Terry and the Pirates on radio. I think Smilin’ Jack was a comic strip as was Steve Canyon.
Yes Ray C., I used to see it on fairly early Saturday mornings. Read in magazine article in the 1970’s the actor was willing to be back on teevee because he could still pull it off being a mountie.

Yes, Tracy’s on the job! Thanks for the nice mention of the k-9s that contribute to law enforcement evrywhere.

Is it really possible to make biscuits out of pure cocaine???

I now have a sudden craving for biscuits. :9

Trayf or not, a lot of people wouldn’t turn up their noses at those biscuits.
Nice detail work with the street sign.

Speaking of sled dogs and cops…does anyone remember “Sergeant Preston of the Yukon,” a radio serial featuring a husky named King?

You know, after this adventure concludes, I bet Joe and I could sell Flakey Biscuits Flour.

Imagine if Jr. took Hot Rise as a sister wife, had a child, how the kid would look? Red hair, freckles, …the Clone Look!!!

It’s usually not that hard. Most goods that are kosher have a small symbol indicating the Rabbinical Council that certified them.

great artwork on the last two panels

Still getting an animated Jimmy Olsen feeling with Junior, and thats a good thing. The last panel with a direct shot of Tracy is very nice.
