Tribune-“Dick Tracy's inimitable style has secured his place in Americana as the groundbreaking detective who kept the streets safe (and millions of readers glued to their comics pages). Not content to rest on his laurels, Tracy continues to be relevant as he combines old-fashioned values with 21st century innovation to capture corporate crooks, computer pirates, polluters, skyjackers, gang members and terrorists.”
