For over 85 years he has been the most famous detective in the country, eclipsing even the real lawmen of the 20th Century at times. In October 1931 Dick Tracy hit the newspapers, and he still appears today. He is the true untouchable, incorruptible, and indefatigable policeman, who stops at nothing to capture the criminal. He has enjoyed comic runs in every decade as well. This book contains the first five issues of his long-running Dell series, DICK TRACY MONTHLY, reprints of adapted newspaper strips from 1934. Written and drawn by creator Chester Gould (except the covers, which are unattributed) they are prime examples of Golden Age crimefighting greatness.
