Artist Joe Staton and writer Mike Curtis co-author "Dick Tracy," the classic comic strip distributed by Tribune Media Services.
Created by Chester Gould in 1931, "Dick Tracy" is one of America's most-enduring pop-cultural icons, noteworthy for its steadfast, chisel-jawed hero and the gruesome gallery of villains he and his fearless team of Crimestoppers must outwit to put behind bars.
When longtime "Dick Tracy" artist and writer Dick Locher retired from the strip after 32 years of meritorious service, fans Staton and Curtis jumped at the chance to don the yellow fedora and trench coat. Staton has been drawing comic books for many years and has more than 1,000 credits under his belt. Curtis, who has been writing comics since 1986, is the only former law-enforcement officer to work on "Dick Tracy." Both creators are excited about the new--and dangerous--adventures they have in store for Dick Tracy and his Crimestoppers.

First off… Why would Teevo be dumb enough to say that aloud? Second off… Where can I get a MCU coffee mug? I don’t even drink coffee, but I want one.
Have a great day, folks.

Good morning all…
Teevo wasn’t the brightest light in the led flashlight.

why did he say it out loud?

This is way too easy with the Chief standing there. I wonder if Lt. Teevo meant he was going to warn Team Tracy about going into Panda’s place.

Oh man, this Teevo thing could go either way now. This Tracy storyline has to be taken one day at a time. Just the way I like it. And it’s funny Ray, I’ve thought the same thing about an MCU mug. Gotta be real fans, for sure. Go Team Tracy!

Agreed, Stagger Lee. Something seems fishy here. If Teevo really meant that he had to warn Tracy about something (an ambush?), then Chief Patton had better get this straightened out quickly! Could Lt. Teevo be a double agent, maybe not for the MCU, but for, say, the FBI—in which case, should we be suspicious of Fritz Ann?

double agent nothing, Teevo’s a rat. DT caught him with the bubblegum and that’s that.

I think Teevo meant to warn Tracy and Co of some danger. At least I hope so. While not my favorite character in the strip I would rather not have him be a bad cop.
Gotta mention that it says something about the writing when we are even having this kind of conversation.

Teevo’s the rat and wants to warn Panda and friends of Tracy’s arrival. He said it out loud because he was shocked. After all, he’s been feeding secret intel to Panda but had no idea this was going to happen.

Ok Chief,, start squeezing the Rat.
What do you want to bet he will scream for a deal?

Yes, I’ve been hankering for one of those mugs for some time. We really need to have them.

#12…. i agree that this seems too easy, and youd think that with all his years on the force pat would be smart enough to NOT “orner the rat” without back-up OR concrete evidence of wrongdoing. so far all he’s got is teevo taking the gum off the camera, and then saying outloud that tracy’s outside panda’s place and that he’s got to warn them. circumstantial evidence at best, but MAYBE enough leverage for teevo to sell out mr crime and his gang. btw, HOW and WHEN did panda and mr crime recruit teevo anyway!?
tsull2121 said, 11 months ago
that should have said “CORNER the rat” and not “ORNER the rat” lol, danged typos!

Teevo’s a rat, OK. Otherwise, why would he look like Nixon?

@morrow
Gabby from Simon & Kirby’s Newsboy Legion looked like Nixon and he was ok.
