Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Reprints "Dick Tracy" from 1945 to 1947. Here we have Itchy, who tries to starve Tracy in revenge, only to meet the same end most of Tracy's foes eventually receive. This volume introduces the two-way wrist radio, 50 years before cell phones became common. B.O. Plenty and Gravel Gertie are united, and after a turbulent courtship are married. Other characters include Breathless Mahoney, Themesong, Shoulders, Gargles and Influence. I still think Dick Tracy is an overrated strip, but there's no denying its popularity and influence, and it does make for a fine guilty pleasure of a read. ( ) no reviews | add a review
