Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for August 07, 2012

Another big clue from Wendy. I’m surprised that no one has tried to visit Tracy.

Pesky Wendy. Always being difficult! :)

SBN — the same network that filmed the return of “Moon Maid.” Can’t believe Wendy didn’t ask the Chief to comment about that!

Of course they’re concerned about Tracy, but as we learned last week they’re trying to keep his disappearance quiet to keep any egg off their face. The chief and the mayor want it that way. I also think Wendy puts the “witch” in Wichel…

Things will begin to heat-up now that the public is in.

Uh-oh. Pesky Wendy has blown their cover, so to speak. Maybe now the PD can put more resources into an open search for the missing Chief of Detectives (?!) Tracy!

DENNIS SISNEROS !-Moon Maid . . .

Dennis Sisneros please contact Andy at SPEC

Looking forward to Pat’s response.

ELEVEN!!!!! i dont like the look on the mayors face in that last panel… looks like SHE didnt even know about tracy’s status. could pat get in trouble from keeping that info from her?

Well Timmy,It’s good to see you came so close to making the first TEN (posts) again. Congrats !But # 11 isn’t really a bad placing !

What does “Mr. Crime’s numerous records” mean? Sounds as if they have Mylar’s computer but it seems they still don’t know his identity.

The on-going appearance of a Female Mayor, continues to puzzle me (?)Had got the impression that the Team was regarding Tracy’s City as a - “thinly veiled” version of Chicago. (?)As I understand it, little, modest steps have been taken to achieve this. The design of the HQ building was adjusted to reflect the image of the one in Chicago. The name Major Crime Squad - has been adjusted to conform to The Major Crime Unit - the technically correct name used in Chicago. And the change had been aptly reflected ON the group’s coffee cups.There was even a recent remark (one of dissapointment), that no one seemed to NOTICE that the recent ATM robbery attempt had occured - “in the Loop” - apparently a signature name of sorts, for downtown Chicago, (mind you, everyone’s attention was understadably distracted from that ’ trivia ’, by the stunning apperance of someone looking exactly like ** Moon Maid !*-Within this ’ reality ’ effort , I thought The strip’s new Mayor (Patton’s boss) might have had an appearance more closely resembling *Rahm Emanual**, the real Chicago Mayor, elected last year (?) . . . rather than a less recognizable female ??

She looks to me to be one of those mayors you see in the Good-Cop-Bad-Cop movies that is with the bad guys and wants to waste the good cop that pursues Truth, Justice, & the American Way!

The judge’s first name wouldn’t be Mort, would it?

Mort Weisingerhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mort_Weisinger

Well, I suspect you may have ’ NAILED ’ the real reason . . . why his likeness does not appear. ;)It’s just that what they’ve done with the Mayor is so - ’ INCONSISTENT ’ with the other minor changes they have been at such great pains to make ! (?)

Woah! That slap at Rahm waqs totally un-called for. If you guys are going to turn this site into a political arena for name calling then I am out.

We still don’t really know what happened to Davey do we? He’d been hit, but then what?

I think Blaze’s visit to Davy’s mom kinda tells us what happened to Davy. Though it is kind of funny…..if his body was found at Mr. Crime’s, they’d be sure to search his home after they found it, wouldn’t they?

The first woman to server as Chicago’s mayor was Jane Byrne. If you Google “Jane Byrne Chicago Mayor” and click “Images,” you’ll be able judge whether or not Joe has accurately captured her.

When did Tracy get promoted to Chief of D’s, and why hasn’t he been desk bound all this time?
