Eric Costello back again for guest writing. He has been here more than Mike Curtis lately.
I wonder if this looks more like Dick Tracy’s fictional city or more like Chicago. The second tall building on the left does resemble the Tribune Tower quite a bit.
Unfortunately I think it’s come to the point that the powers that be at Dick Tracy need to make a decision about who is the writer is going forward. Mike, who is the official writer of Dick Tracy, has now become more absent than present as the writer to the point that there needs to be a statement from them. Be it it Eric, who many here criticise often, so be it as long as it’s an official statement. Because in the end it could, and I emphasise could, hurt the strip if a concrete decision isn’t made.
Let me add that I have no ill will towards Mike and hope he’s doing well.
I like Eric’s writing, but the best way to NOT start off a story is with a one panel skyline image and 11 words…the first thing I did when I saw today’s offering was a deep sigh, if THIS is how it begins, it does not bode well for the rest of the story…its a bland, monochromatic image with no “life” to it whatsoever….HOPEFULLY it’s all uphill from here

At this point, they might as well give Matty a shot at writing a story.

Maybe this story will be a deep dive into the world of architecture— that’d be right up Esoteric Eric’s alley!
