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.

A nicely executed crime, though where the Reeve was would be problematical.

Today’s script might be read as exonerating the Reeve, but I’m still not sure about him. What is clear is the mode of Jumbler’s villainy (yes, including abuse of the doggie). His target is less clear; does the Reeve’s bag include the whole day’s proceeds of the fair?

Back in college, a friend had a Ren party, where everyone had to come in period costume. I went as a plague rat.

Tear gas? He should have had a sword in that cane, at the very least…. Another one of those criminals who prefers not to use deadly force, it seems!

I thought it was a gun cane, and he was aiming it at that woman with the pointy hat
