Dick Tracy's Fiendish Foes: A 60th Anniversary Celebration

About this book

For six decades some square-jawed flatfoot by the name of Richard Tracy has been mucking up perfectly good - often brilliant - careers in crime. Gangsters and grotesque geniuses alike have found their infallible designs fouled by the cop with the funny yellow hat. Dick Tracys crime-stopping skills remain at their peak after six decades on the force. Among the villains assembled in this delightful volume are many old familiar faces: Flattop Jr. whose designs on getting out of the small town hes in take him straight into the path of the cop who killed his famous father; Pruneface who has kept his plans on ice for long enough; Moene the daughter of the Mole whose underground connections are as extensive as those of her fathers; Mumbles; Harley Niav aka Putty Puss who offers up a parade of familiar faces - all bent on revenge. Including to this line-up this delightful collection also includes a special interview with Chester Gould from late in the artists life and many rare strips making this a fiendish way to celebrate 60 years of great detecting work and unmatched villainy.
