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.

“Jonah” — I believe that’s the first time we’ve heard the name of Sweatbox’s assistant. I’m still wondering what Jonah was doing at Lowery’s when Tracy, Lee, Mole, etc., were all there (Jan. 24 strip). I guess it’s possible that it wasn’t Jonah, but it sure looked like him.

With the Tracy tradition, I would have thought his brother would be named Phil or maybe Loch. Does he have a sister named Jewel?

Lee’s earrings are very ancient Egyptian in style; as for Sweaty, I think he is lying through what’s left of his teeth.

Umm; no, Sweatbox, your brother Stephen is not the only one laid to rest there (I wouldn’t say “interred” for a mausoleum). So,Lee, put the heat on him and see how much you can sweat out of him….

If she sweats anything more out of him, he will just dry up and fly away ;)

I wonder if a portion of those remains belong to the person responsible for the murder that Stephen was imprisoned for.

mikeyj, i may be partial, but lee ALWAYS looks beautiful! :) and as for who is in the baux-box… maybe someone has been dumping bodies? it IS relatively close to mole’s hotel… maybe they are some forgotten murders of his from years past? tho thinking about it, i would rather go with mdstudio’s idea that it MAY be th eperson responsible for the murders…either that, OR it was the person who was murdered? can wait to find out!

I wonder if some of those bones will turn out to be those of missing children.
