Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for March 02, 2017

“Shop Talk.”

Well, it looks like that “cookie jar lid” was actually the top of a coffee pot.

“Supotoc” doesn’t seem like a lettering error, because it’s consistent from yesterday to today. Shelley is off the hook.

I see that the rain storm has started up again. Lots of stormy weather comes with the Spirit!

I think that someone here was talking about the tentacles of the Octopus reaching around the world, but I don’t remember who.

“Bribery has even been active on the moon”So is this a Chin Chillar reference, or is Team Tracy buying into the idea that Mr Bribery was also Mr Intro?

Good morning everyone!

There’s an elaborate old-school anime reference over on “In Security” today …

Tracy’s a prima Donna cad, making a injured, one armed person pour coffee for him! For shame!

Someone tell Spirit it’s bad manners to sip coffee while wearing gloves!

Uh, Tracy – this “Bribery” wouldn’t be a really creepy guy with a weird smile, wears a pince-nez and is always smelling a rose, would he?

Could this be foreshadowing? Could the Octopus or Bribery or Mysta be popping up?

I’m wondering who Spirit thought Mysta was, since he apparently doesn’t know her background.

Very nice camera angle in panel 3

Looks like the boys take sugar, no cream.

Anyway, their coffee break gives them the opportunity to reset the table for us. Basically, nothing is happening today except to hint at what may come in the future—the Octopus or Mr. Bribery, and some interaction with “Miss Chimera” on the part of the Spirit especially….

Tracy’s caffeine intake is way too much. I guess that’s better’n sipping Strawberry Hill all day out of a paper bag.
