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.

George must have some awesome youth cream.

Looking back at February 9th, I still don’t understand the pretense for ol’ Sweaty’s conversation with the Mayor. What would she have to do with helping to keep things quiet? She still seems fishy to me.

SB was probably protecting her, the real murderer.

This doesn’t really clarify things much for me; I still have way too many unanswered questions. We may never know what really drove Sweatbox. But I bet he’s sweating plenty where he is now!

Apparently Sweaty only knew Gorge by name… so he tried to frame him…VERY clumsily!

Given George’s age at the time of the first murders, he’d have had to be a really bad boy to do the deeds— and could not have hoped to get away with it.

Just about the time things were clearing up, here they are getting muddled again! (Sigh)

I have a gut feeling that Mayor Armstrong is dirty.

IF Mayor Armstrong IS dirty, and she is tied somehow to sweaty (which i dont believe EITHER of by the way)… do you think that maybe it COULD have been her that tipped off the newsies to the raid on Panda’s shop/mr crime’s hq?!?! i seem to remember that wendy wichel and her newsteam got there pretty quickly and broke the story. i would imagine that only someone with INSIDE information on the pending raid would h ave been able to spill the beans and get a newsteam there so quickly. but then again, the mayor did seem rather irked when wendy grilled tracy on the steps in front of the (?) municipal building later on (or was that BEFORE?)

“Is that Moon Maid I see on the horizon?”
Good morning, VistaBill. Yes, that’s her! But someone said we still have one more story in between?

Not sure the mayor is dirty, but I can see why ppl have suspicions.

That’s an interesting web site that George has on his computer in the background. Most newspaper websites that I have seen don’t design their on line sites to look like the print edition. (I wish they did)
