...petite nymphomaniac. And that job at Goldman seems unlikely too—how many investment banks want to hire the girl whose claim to fame is that she daily exposes her sex life online?

What's striking today about the strip is its sanctified sadomasochism. No question, Tracy could dish it out, as in this sequence from 1947: "Like a whip, a piece of chain flies through the air - a chain attached to Tracy's cane handle. AGAIN AND AGAIN, the chain slashes! Tiny pieces of glass...
