TNIYU  =  UNITY,  ARPMC  =  CRAMP,  THECSK  =  SKETCH,  TDERBO  =  DEBTOR   —   Giving us:  TYCRASKTOR

Clue/Question:  Part of Sylvester Stallone‘s long-term success can be attributed to his . . .

Answer:  “ROCKY“ START

(The quotation marks make it so the other two(?) possible answers won’t do.  Both TRACK STORY and STORY TRACK fit.  And, STORY TRACK would actually make sense, in this context.  But, with the clue/question – AND the excellent drawing – what else could it really be but ROCKY!  I had a little trouble getting “debtor”, even though it’s not a difficult word.  It was scrambled just right.  No giveaways at all, today.  But, with the cartoon and the clue, I don’t think many were left fighting for the answer.   What a great movie.  One of the best Eww factors of all time?  Rocky drinking the glass of raw eggs!  Classic!  Be well, my friends.  And always try to do good.)   —   YUR
