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.

Also rare because Gould generally killed his villains off

Ah, a little “Wind in the Wilows” reference.

Mornin’ all!
Mole is one of my favorite characters – both in Dick Tracy and “Wind in the Willows.”

For all of you who want to see a Batman-Dick Tracy crossover:

Is it healthy to live underground?

Mikeyj, I like your artwork. However, I think it is completely out of character to have Dick Tracy cursing.

I like Mikeyj’s car designs and I like The Mole. He’s such a sweet guy.

Is it strange that the Mole is one of my favorite characters? The coloring is just too bright on this page. Gocomics colorists blow the atmosphere again.
Seattlepi comics has it a little better, they gave it a dusk half-light feel.

If you live in tornado alley, YES!
If you live next to a river or the ocean, NO!
Actually underground homes can take up more room than above ground ones since you don’t have to maintain distances to property lines, are easy to keep heated or cooled, and never need to have the outside painted or the roof re-shingled.
The ones made from old missile silos sold quite cheap considering the amount of space inside.

Looks like he’s just taken out the trash and is lining the trash cans. Mole is a hard worker with a big heart. Still love the way he addresses “Mr.” Tracy. You go, Mole!
