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.

Mornin’ all!
This is an unexpected turn!

The only way George can make a plausible confession is if he already knows the details of the murder and the confession. And there’s going to be a huge problem with his confession: that bloody hand print on the paper. If George grew up in the barracks, it implies he didn’t have an adult-sized hand. He’ll either need some fancy footwork to take the blame, or arrange something with Tracy.

Apparently, the Police know where he is, what are they waiting for, to close in?

Sure didn’t take long for Sweatbox to find that cell phone number. I think HIS number will be up, soon! Hang in there, Toad!

So, I guess Creepy Sweaty Dude is responsible for all the dead bodies in the crypt, too? Still not sure what that’s all about.

BIG CLUE in the second panel, Sweatbox knows exactly where the confession was found and that George lived in that barracks. If so, then I believe that Sweatbox was one of the guards at Camp Freedom! Also, I think that this means that George may very well remember Sweatbox.
