Sparkle Plenty

Sparkle Plenty is the daughter of reformed outlaw B.O. Plenty and Gravel Gertie, born into Dick Tracy's world and famous from Chester Gould's original strip for her striking golden hair and the affection she inspires from Tracy and his allies.

Few names in comics carry quite the storybook charm of Sparkle Plenty, who graces the pages of Blackthorne's Dick Tracy series beginning with issue #2 in 1985 — a Bronze Age publication that kept Chester Gould's beloved world alive and vivid. With only 8 catalog appearances across Dick Tracy and Dick Tracy Monthly, she's a rare presence, but the company she keeps is impeccable: Dick Tracy himself, B.O. Plenty, Pat Patton, Sam Catchem, and Junior Tracy all share her world. For collectors who love the classic, wholesome heart of the Tracy universe, Sparkle Plenty is a warm and nostalgic find worth seeking out.
