A guest artist and guest writer. I don’t mind the graphical style of this at all, but I’m not sure yet what is happening. The flip phone appears not to be the latest model, though cell network providers do still sell them.
What is so special in that drawer; is it the lady’s picture or the flip phone ? When was the last time we saw people sweat like this in DT ? And not the flop sweat striker does when he gets caught goosing my Goats, with his tattered tool.
Looks like the victim got a picture of his killer … unless he had the phone camera pointed in the wrong direction. Looks like another Minit Mystery that offers more in the way of cluelessness than clues.
Let’s see: one of the partners in Scarbourough Law (the one who isn’t Marcus) has his key in the door (closing for the day, or coming in for the night shift?) and hears phone ringing. Using his cell phone app as a flashlight (instead of flipping the light switch) he enters and calls to see if Marcus is there, then opens desk drawer where cell phone is still ringing. (Why did the caller use the number for the flip phone instead of the number for the phone being used as flashlight?) Someone (Marcus?) shoots him as he says hello to caller and the sound of the gunshot causes the phone to jump from flashlight app to camera app and take photo? Killer will leave it for the police?
That’s what I got from the strip. So far it makes more sense than the last story.

I’m sure “Chuck” has no affiliation with this now “infirm” establishment.

Looks like he was shot, but still holding the phone, I think, with the shooter shown on the phone?

Panel two, with the street scene, very nicely done…gives it a “1930’s noir” feeling
