Great art work and all, but I miss the long story lines of the 50s and 60s, I was just re-reading the Crewy Lou story from 51 and it was six months long, with lots of twists and turns and suspense, especially after Bonnie Braids (just a baby then) is inadvertently kidnapped by Crewy Lou and then abandoned in the getaway car and it takes weeks for her to be found. Every day is a gem.
I have to disagree, De Hunt, I’ve been reading Dick Tracy since the early 60s when I was a kid, back then it always had “soap opera” elements in it, that’s what kept it so interesting, Chester Gould always developed the “bad guys” so that that they were more than just cardboard villains…I haven’t liked the stories in this new Dick Tracy until now, this is one that you can sink your teeth into…I say bring on more stories like this one with lots of twists and turns.
I will say it again, I hope this story never ends, I love how it goes back and forth and winds in and out, like the grand old days of Dick Tracy…hope the writing team has another great one lined up after this.
Mistake in panel 9: “in the manner you think your due” should be “you’re due,” as in “you are due.”
