4.0 out of 5 stars
a light tribute to Chester Gould,
By
This review is from: Dick Tracy: The Complete True Hearts and Tommy Guns Trilogy (Paperback)
This book is for all fans of Chester Gould's original Dick Tracy. Kyle Baker's artistic interpretation of many, many of Chester Gould's villains is a nice treat. (None of the characters created after Chester gould's retirement are used--yay!) True, the characterizations are basically flat, but that is unfortunately to be expected in a story with such an extremely large cast. The book gives time to many characters who did not make it to the movie such as FBI agent Jim Trailer, the Mole, B-B Eyes, Jerome Trohs, and the mad Doc Hump. The color is fantastic. The book is enjoyable if it is read as a light tribute to Chester Gould and nothing more. The only thing that kept me from giving the book five stars is that Warren Beatty's face is used on the Dick Tracy character instead of the original square-jawed Chet Gould comic strip version, which I heard that Kyle Baker wanted to use until his superiors informed him, "Warren Beatty IS Dick Tracy." Get over yourself, Warren.
