Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for May 10, 2009

Aha, the third bear trap! Bad pun in the last panel.

A lever action double-barreled shotgun (with hammers)? A bear trap in a money bag (never mind that the weight, and the impossibility of it being set)? $1,000 dollar bills? And that is one massive motorcycle, and one hell of a fast trip.

This guy must be dumber then Gertie looks…

TWANG???

What kind of trap makes that sound???

a steel guitar trap goes Twang

More lame “puns” about the bear traps.

So, am I to understand that these other two guys have bear traps on their legs and they are NOT writhing around on the floor in pain? They would be lucky not to bleed out right there in the basement.

Twang??? For What??

The Motorcycle in the last panel has some serious scale issues.

If they live in Sunny Acres, is there not a single other person around?

Snotpickers Grabbag - Remember folks, only carry hundreds. After all, that’s what you should be doing anyway.

Locher would have impressed me if he had shown a chopper, apehanger handlebars, and a maggot rider that goes inside and kicks tail.

Nice way to manipulate the bad guys, Gertie! Don’t throw me in that thar briarpatch! And don’t take my bag of $1,000 bills, Brer Scumbag! — I think the bear trap that one guy is wrestling with is animate, it looks like it’s chewing up and down his leg and wrapping itself around his neck. If we could get a close up of it I’d bet it has an evil pair of eyes with big, bushy eyebrows.

I’ve never seen a shotgun like that one, nor a motorcycle like that one.

So if that last bag was holding the thousand dollar bills then what were the other bags holding? Ones? Fives?

The mean henchman has deflated greatly since we originally saw him and he doesn’t have bear trap stuck in his leg to let the air out!

Does the Gov’t still print thousand dollar bills? I thought we stopped doing those.

Does it matter if they print them or not? As long as the pug ugly thinks they do, Gertie is still good.

My only guess in the bag, with the size is that the twang we hear is the spring on a mouse trap.

The fenders are wrong. If you are going to draw an Indian Chief, give it the respect it deserves! The new Indians are selling for around 30K and still boast the original style fenders that were unique to the Indian@.
