Comments: The art is old style. It looks good. The yellow trench coat stands out.
Dick Tracy is a straight cop. He represents the law and does not give in to any pressure to go easy on certain individuals no matter the cost to himself.
Big Boy has a plan and it involves Dick Tracy. His well-laid plans mean nothing to Dick Tracy. Big Boy brings Tracy to town planning to use him. When Tracy hits town he hits it hard. The bullets start flying and those who thought to control Dick Tracy find out just how good a cop he is.
As Big Boy is brought to justice and about to pay for his crimes. Something is up and going on to interfere. Dick is there with his square jaw.
Dick Tracy hits crime hard here. Crime though does not sleep easy and Dick Tracy is going to be put to work. He is an honest cop which is hard to find. He is a hard-boiled cop with an attitude to destroy crime.
