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.

No, I think he just shot the gun out of his hand.

Is this GoComics’ new plan for Dick Tracy? No Sunday strips and the daily strips in black and white.

Tracy shot the Penguins brother! WAK! WAK! WAK!
Tracy seems to have a DAO SIG, since the hammer is down after the shots fired in yesterdays strip. I didn’t know that Double Action Only was an available option on a SIG, but I admit, my only SIG is a .22 rifle.

We don’t know how much time passed between the moon visit and the fake robbery; it could have been several days.

Happy New Year’s morning – I see I’m not the only one who rings in the new year with the comics!
-———————————————————————————————Really love today’s art! The B&W really makes everything pop (yes, even the guns).
The anti-shilouette of Broadway with a great Tracy drawing in panel 1 is just classic stuff (I may enlarge that panel alone as a keeper).
Great start to the new year!
