Dick Tracy by Mike Curtis and Charles Ettinger for November 18, 2024

This story is slower than a weekend at Firestrike’s place!

Speedy Gonzalez couldn’t help this story move faster!

Forget “Back to the Future”, this story is “Back to Sleep!”

A clock that “stops” a face.

The ‘big war’. I feel I’m missing something here…

Tracy’s not buying this obvious lie! “Durn it, that clock should work!! I remember it!”

Too bad the tower clock isn’t an alarm clock. This story needs something to wake everybody up.

@Gweedo it’s legal here Murray

along with macular degeneration to go with it…

I’ll have you know, “sir”, that my elixir causes macronukuler regeneration !

Good morning™, Dead Time Pieces !

A lot of blackouts during that war to help prevent enemy bombers to know where precisely to drop their loads, like a firestrike toileting session. Tracy’s looking good ! :-)

Good morning™, all!

If the clock hasn’t worked since World War 2, it’s been broken since before the clock in Back to the Future.

A factory I worked at years ago had the skylights painted over for that reason!

In other words, time stood still!

Me still no get what the tick tock is going on in this so called story.

I wonder if that device that unidentified man was caressing in the clock tower is a “dirty bomb”????

Ah, I apologize for saying the clock face was too large. I was assuming it had a clock-face on all four sides. Off the top of my head I can’t recall the largest singular clock-face.

(Wikipedia’s list of largest clock faces include a lot of things that aren’t on towers – freestanding or horizontal rather than vertical, but the 1933 Duquesne Brewery clock is interesting for being wider than the tower it’s on and is still the largest single-sided clock tower in the US.)

This story is slower than the twelve days of Christmas .
