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.

Well, well, Blackjack is back!
I must admit, he makes quite an opponent for Dick.

Liz is looking gorgeous with her long hair.

I know it’s just a tease for an upcoming story, but it’s great to see Blackjack again!
As he said —
“Woo Hoo! It’s Dick Tracy!”

I think Lizz looks great with long hair, too. This is the first time we’ve seen her since before the Measles story, if you can believe that.

I’m reminded of the gun cigarette lighter in the Pink Panther movies. “Francois, come over here and help me find my nose!”

So, that strip a few weeks back when Tracy found himself humming Tubthumping must have been his subconscious telling him that Blackjack had escaped.

Black Jack definitely one of the most interesting adversaries for Dick Tracy. One way too smart and bordering on crazy.

As Gweedo Murray said, same link I posted.
I like Mike Mozart as well. His other PEZ fail toy review, the Snow White & Seven Dwarves Uncut one, is one of my favorites. I’ll let anyone who wants to see THAT one search for it themselves. WARNING It is DEFINITELY NOT for those easily offended by sexual innuendo. Others of note are The Punisher toy review, and both of the Tarzan toy reviews, as well as the Fisher Price Dinosaurs and the Disney Pluto reviews. There are many more, but these stand out the most as, in the words of Mike Mozart, “Really! What were they thinking?”

Criminally insane perhaps? But in a good way. Welcome back, Blackjack!

He’s so polite. He didn’t hurt anyone in his escape, he calls when he promised to and he warns in advance that he’s coming. His mother must be SO proud!
BTW… Where is Vista Bill?
