Chester Gould

Complete Chester Gould's Dick Tracy Volume 15

Buch

In Volume 15, reprinting all daily and Sunday comic strips from April 19, 1953 to October 24, 1954, we learn the fate of Little Wings and her radioactive dad. On the lighter side, we meet Canhead (B.O.'s brother, Kincaid Plenty), his not-so-light and not-so-nice ex-wife Pony, and her crony, the downright creepy 3-D Magee. Meanwhile, Tracy has to deal with TNT vests and killer ants while showing Open-Mind Monty that he's no dummy. Plus, the unlikely duo of Dewdrop and Sticks, the oversized Rainbow Reiley, and Chester Gould's latest and greatest grotesque: Rughead.

Über den Autor

Chester Gould (1900-1985) was born in Pawnee, Oklahoma, the son of a newspaperman and grandson of a circuit-riding preacher. He attended Oklahoma A&M (now Oklahoma State University) before transferring to Northwestern University in Chicago, from which he graduated in 1923. He produced the minor comic strips Fillum Fables and The Radio Catts before striking it big with Dick Tracy in 1931. Originally titled Plainclothes Tracy, the rechristened strip became one of the most successful and lauded comic strips of all time, as well as a media and merchandising sensation. He was twice accorded the Cartoonist of the Year Reuben Award by his peers. Gould continued to write and illustrate Dick Tracy until his retirement in 1977.
