Dick Tracy:
Tracy’s Wartime Memories
by Dick Locher and
Max Allan Collins. Here is the complete six-month sequence (Sundays and dailies
from 3/4 through 9/5/1985) reproduced from syndicate proofs! Tracy recalls his
battles against the most renowned villains of the comic strip world: Mr. and
Mrs. Pruneface and Flattop—with a little Shaky thrown in for good measure. In
bringing us back to the “war years,” writer Max Allan Collins has uncovered some
unfinished business: particularly in the case of Pruneface, who supposedly froze
to death in 1942—but is brought back to life in 1985 by modern scientific
techniques. 8½x11, 64 black and white pages plus square spine color cover ....$5.95
