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.

Good morning all…
I’m sure glad Sam notified his companions. Standing by a shark tank could be hazardous to his health!

Liz’ hair is getting long! No more horn hair for her.

Her arm’s in a sling, margueritem. She needs both hands to create the horn hair look.

Good point, VB. And, Good Morning to you & Margueritem!

won’t Phishface wonder why Sam just couldn’t use Geek Squad?

The fast pace is refreshing, but when was the last time a case was solved by science? The murder of the Governor’s Wife in ’77? If so, perhaps my expectations of the American Sherlock Holmes are out of line.

Half the MCU has their arms in slings, but they still will do the job backing up Sam, if only Sam will wait for them to get there!

Use your imagination it’s a comic SDM.

You know with Sam’s distinctive “look,” it’s hard to imagine him as an undercover operative.

Geek Squad is a division of Best Buy and Best Buy is becoming another “trash quality” Radio Shack!

Fitting to find Joe & Mike’s names on the service door, as they serve Tracy so very well.

For a computer-smart guy, Chum doesn’t seem to have much common sense.

That’s easy. Sam has documents on his computer that he doesn’t want a law abiding outfit like Geek Squad to see.
