ISBN: 9781631400773.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDick Tracy celebrates its 25th Anniversary as Chester Gould ups the ante in his assault on juvenile delinquency in the startling — and literally haunting — conclusion to the Flattop Jr. saga. Meanwhile, the squad room becomes co-ed when Lizz permanently joins the cast. Money remains the motivating factor for a new host of crazed villains, including the gymnastic murderesses, the Kitten Sisters; killer con men, the Clipso Brothers; two different spouse slayers; a notorious counterfeiter; and a “blind” drug pusher. And, Gould interposes some comedic relief — the return of bandleader Spike Dyke and the introduction of Morin Plenty (B.O.’s 88-year-old father) and his sugar-addicted wife Blossom — but humorous interludes are short-lived. Tragedy rules the day in Volume 17, reprinting strips from May 14, 1956 through December 14, 1957.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"IDW","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44974563131445,"sku":"ByrdShop_1631400770","price":451.07,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781631400773_e571354d-873a-417a-9ca0-f6fa6d30a2a5.jpg?v=1778717627","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/complete-chester-goulds-dick-tracy-volume-17-9781631400773","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
