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.

“Cops are here, Toad, you’re coming with me.” This development is ludicrous. Do I even need to clarify why? Also: in real life a police officer would need 2 seconds to exit the car and aim their gun at a criminal. What in blazes is going on here? Bullet time?

I think Tracy and Lee are waiting for Joe Jitsu to arrive to scene and take care of the situation.

Way to knock some sense into him, Toad.
Or knock it out of him, same diff.

SB (who is now in panic mode) probably thinks he will have more leverage with the police if he has a hostage. It also seems like Toad is between the police car and SB. Everyone is running around. It is dark. I doubt if Tracy or Lee would fire a gun if they couldn’t be sure of not accidentally hitting Mole or Toad.

My previous comment is more apparent if you look at the coloring on Comics Kingdom.

You have to remember that today’s action takes place just a second or 2 from yesterday’s

Yes. An officer has to be sure of their target. Especially nowadays.

Lizz, Lee, Moon Maid, Honeymoon, and now Toad.
I love it that there are so many strong female characters.
Thank you, Team Tracy!

Ok, mole, belt him one… or better yet kick him in the groin, and put him out of commission ;)
