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.

Someone is in for a real shock, and it’s NOT Dick Tracy!

Who will get those paddles?
Good morning, VB!

No way is Sam going to jumpstart Dick. Will he attack the white-haired guy, or zap the ambulance’s electrical systems by shocking the vehicle itself?

Good morning, margueritem. Tomorrow’s strip should be even more exciting… it’ll be the Sunday DT with more action-filled panels!

Paddle cake , paddle cake, Catchem’s the man.
He will shock all three as fast as he can.

I don’t remember giving Tracy an irregular heartbeat.

First they will need to unbuckle that strap and then lower the sheet so the chest area can be exposed. While that is being done is when Sam will make his move.

Fried Franz, coming up! Does either Tracy or Sam still have a Wrist Wizard or a back-up piece (I don’t recall any rigorous searching by Stiletta’s crew)?

The Upward Lee Mobile (sp?) case would’ve been an apropos reference. And in non sequitur, non-Tracy 2:20AM news— I just got back from a 20something meat market in South Boston called (wait for it)…Lucky’s. Boy…do I feel old.

I’m sure all the statuesque blondes there would be greatly impressed by my comic strip commentary & arcane Collins trivia.
