Good Evening All …Conked on the head with a blackjack. The only sure way to knock out our hero. Morning Gloria had it all wrong using a chair. Anyone know the number of times Tracy has been knocked out?I understand that repeated blows to the head can cause SIS, which is NOT a good thing.
I’m having difficulty understanding that first panel. Which way is the police car going? If that’s supposed to be the FRONT of the car, isn’t it in the wrong lane? If that is the BACK, the speech balloons would appear to be transposed, assuming that Tracy is driving. And then, those look more like headlights than tail lights. Or, am I just mixed up today?
I was given a sap similar to that one by a retiring sheriff’s deputy when I hired on in 1976. Soon after they were banned in favor of flat saps with more rigid handles and not long after that saps were banned with my department altogether. I noticed that “sap gloves” (leather gloves with lead sand protection for the knuckles) were used by some departments for some time after.

Vera drugged, Tracy slugged – Just what IS Abner up to? Is Abner part of Mr. Crime’s organization?ARRGH! Have to wait another day!
BTW – where can I find Tracy in Black & White? I’m tired of seeing Joe’s great art mired under a layer of Crapola Colors.

Or been shot full of holes himself (but he’ll claim that it’s only a flesh wound).

Vera’s about to be doublecrossed. He is going from Alldid to Alldone.

The “CRACK” graphic reminds me of the comics of old. -Yet another unexpected turn of events … Team Tracy rides again!
