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.

Hard to operate a business this way, it will be very interesting to see how much longer he can pull it off.

If we’re talking money, I assume Bookie means 20 Large. So, Measles’ half would be 10 Gees. And he has “most of it”? He’s hard by eating Arnie’s lead (or so it would be with the gang dealers of Chicago)…. Or are we talking, instead, the stuff, such as 20 bags, or 20 bricks?

With all apologies to Dr Sid1.. NUMBER ELEVEN!! lol! i dont get this whole measles angle… but i am sure that team tracy will tie it together nicely in due time. has measles ALWAYS been “sick” or is that a ruse to whoever the guy outside the car is (arnie?) to throw him off the track of measles using his own goods?

There’s no future in not having your half. That koff is the least of Measles’ worries.

Very fine art today. Notice Measles’ reflection in the rear view mirror as we look over his shoulder. Wonderful attention to detail. Also, views of characters from inside vehicles is very Gould-like.

Good morning VB and welcome back margueritem (nice Halloween-ish cat avatar BTW)! I’m having trouble guessing who’s buying and who’s selling but I’m sure if it is important we’ll find out soon.
