Coming Soon 👀 At the beginning of April, you’ll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
That picture reminds me of Scooby-Doo. Just 7 more subs and you could get yourself a free one. I guess the “thief” doesn’t like subs. The business cards are put there to mislead the police I suppose, but they do provide a lead.
First Responder Loren Courts’ wife reflects on her loss two years later: wxyz .com /news /wife-of-fallen-dpd-officer-loren-courts-reflects-on-his-death-2-years-later
Really bogus planting of the wallet. As I pointed out already, a thief doesn’t keep the evidence of the wallet around for days – it is hard evidence against him. You take the cash and dump it. And why take the driver’s license? That is also pronounced hard evidence against you. Or, since we don’t know how often the poor box is checked – which probably is not every few weeks – he could have felt contrition almost immediately… But if he felt contrition why steal the cash and why dump it in the poor box? And would a guy stealing from bodies in the park be carrying pencil and paper?
While Liz needs to check the cards this should scream phony if Tracy’s brain is even in first gear. Tracy needs to be checking it out for fingerprints and comparing them with those of the corpse.
Of course, Tracy’s brain may be neutral or park since he hasn’t had to use it for awhile… In which case, why all the careful wearing of the gloves?
I’ve got my fingers crossed, hoping, and hoping I’m not hoping in vain, that we’ll actually see some real effort at forensics (besides the guy doing the autopsy – who was sharp enough to notice all the dental work was new – he provided an important clue that should have the alarms going off in Tracy’s head right now as he looks at this shoddy fraud.
And, do we ever learn if this is embezzlement, insurance fraud, or both going on in addition to the murder?
The “Lucky Numbers” 4 16 24 may be related to the famous Numbers 4 8 15 16 23 42 from the Lost TV show. Also, note that this strip’s publication date of 3-16-25 is close to the date 4-16-24!
BUT THEN! JUST as Tracy begins to get a clue, the coroner stumbles on,(and fails to recognize a such) the surgically implanted gall stones.
The investigation veers wildly off the tracks, and Tracy orders Shovelin’ Sm to ‘just bury the stupid body out back, so we can forget about all this and stop real crime stuff. Then go get me some Girl Scouts selling cookies without a license! Something I can sink my TEETH into!’
Of course, to quite Rocket J. Squirrel, ‘that trick never works.’ Sam, as usual. eats the evidence, and the girls scamper free.
1- DT: SCORE! A USED BAND-AID! I’LL SEND IT TO THE LAB FOR A BLOOD TEST AND…
2= : Oh. It’s just a note written in red ink…
3- : MAN! This guy’s wife was uggg-leeeee! I should be able to track him down through her. I’ll start at the circus…
4- : HANG ON! GET IN HERE, LIZZ! I KNOW WHO THE WALLET BELONGS TO NOW!
5- : It’s vital that we return this wallet to it’s rightful owner. Say. Wasn’t there a note with this? Something about “John Doe”? LIZZ: Yeah. We lost it. DT: No matter. I’ve sussed out that this belongs to Horace Piltdown anyway.
LIZZ: Great, Dick! DT: That’s what Tess always sa…oh. You mean, like, “great job”. Yeah. Thanks…
Whatever this is, a business card is going to trip up the perpetrator. As for those nephews it would have behooved them to watch episodes of Columbo and Murder She Wrote. Oh well, chances are they watched the Andy Griffith Show. Thus far made more Barney Fife type bumbling. On second thought they might be “comic relief”. (no pun intended)
THIS JUST N FROM UPI (Unlikely Press Idiocy)!! Clyde, the recusive spider sillionaire, has penned an agreement for a solo adventure in NANCY.!
Yes, you foamed at the mouth! You wailed! You cried! And the Universe has heard your cries (and totally misinterpreted them)!! Well, tough. The Universe needed a tax write-off, so you’re stuck with it.
Clyde will play E. Rachnid, a mysterious webbed crime fighter who, between visits to his lavishly paneled Hall Of Swatters, ventures forth at night to make Nancyburg safe tor all creatures who skitter in the night and probably take up residence in your shoes.
Look for GARFIEELD’s own Odie as Rolf, the faithful dim bulb valet/companion is his never ending battle against Buzzy Flye, his slinky moll, Teetsy Fly, and his wicked ‘walk on your food with spitty little feet’ minions! (EWWWW)
Will sanity…er… SANITATION win out in the end?
Soundtrack by Three Frog Night now unavailable in no stores near you.
Okay—that looks like a “coffee card” where they check off your useage and after 10 purchases you get a free cup. If it’s a small chain it can be traced.
Also,the dog’s liscense tag is “cut off” in the art—-but if they can see it,also traceable clue.

I haven’t seen a sub club card in YEARS. They all do it through an app now, because your personal information isn’t in enough databases yet.

No comics this morning. Maybe someone at GoComics had too much green beer yesterday?
Crowmeus about 16 hours ago
It’s not just Tracy. Only three of the comics I read here have been updated since yesterday.
Batster about 16 hours ago
I’d already woken up to a number of irritations this morning, and now no updates either. Looking like a Garfield Monday….

8:30 am EST and no new strip. Maybe GoComics takes St. Patrick’s Day off as a national holiday…probably drinking green beer.

this is the longest stretch of no-show that I can remember at least within the last three years, I believe…

Okay,we’ll have to wait to see if I’m “blocked” from progressing beyond today—Sunday the 16th—-I can’t get Monday’s strips yet.
Remember Posie—-who buried his murder vic tims in cereal flakes but left the purchase slip behind…..
