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.

Whose bones are they? And does this have anything to do with the murder at the internment camp?

Mornin’ VistaBill. margueritem, and all!
I’m pretty sure those bones will tie in with the internment camp murder case. Don’t know how, but…
Really enjoying this story, and all it’s sub-plots and characters!

Why all the plot questions? You’ve gotta leave Joe and Mike Something to do!

Toad certainly is a cute little “tomboy”, reminds me of a girl who lived next door when I was a kid, when it came to sports, she was WAY better than me, at pretty much any sport you could name… then, at about 14, she hit puberty and got really boring! hahaha (Although, her sexiness quotient increased 10-fold)

Gould had a penchant for pairing his child characters years before they actually got together…. Toad would be perfect for Joseph Tracy ;)

“That’s not right, is it?” Boy, this kid didn’t just fall off the turnip truck… And Mikeyj, you little old matchmaker you! Gotta say, love the idea of a future Toad and Joe. Nice call.

I think so

once again, the kid in the tuque looks as if he’s black to me… probably know for sure tomorrow, when the colour comes straight from the Tracy team, rather than GCs
