Dick Tracy and The Rocketeer in: "100 Ways to Whack a Witness!"

 

Presenting yet another chapter in the Rats McTattler Saga!  Tracy and The Rocketeer were last seen dealing with him in STF #3551, and first encountered him and each other in STF #2805... Let's hope the third time is the charm and they finally get the necessary information out of him!

  1. Slowly the Rocketeer turned as Tracy started to save his love's only hope for her freedom. Will the info Rats has be enough to save the day?? Tune in next year for the next instalment of Tracy's Twisters!!

  2. The cover's title is the real winner today

  3. Immediately on seeing the title, Paul Simon's "Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover" became an earworm (including someone's suggestion of "Give her a bomb, Tom").

    So, for me, the real winner is the Rats's name. Will his tale be limited to just the trilogy, or will this saga continue? Will, perhaps, Christopher Chance get involved somehow?

    And will we get a movie starring Warren Beatty and Billy Campbell? If we do, who will be cast as Rats? (I'd favor Dan Aykroyd, but Bill Murray or Ian McKellen might also be good choices -- even Tony Shalhoub, even though he was only a "bit player" in the pre-Monk 90s.)

  4. Judging by the title you chose, Ross, I'd say you still have 97 more perils to go.

  5. If you're into bizarre combos, Ross, how about Quickdraw McGraw vs. O'Neal the Six-gun Gorilla?

  6. Or, failing that, how about Spidey and Barry "The Flash" Allen vs. the Dillon Brothers (Roscoe and Max)?*

    *The Top and Electro, of course.

  8. I mean, it's been over four years since those two first met (in STF #2430)!
