In "Dick Tracy and the Case of Murder by Flame," Dick Tracy and his friends are just settling into a festive Christmas celebration when a chilling new threat emerges—a mad doctor wielding a flaming prosthetic to commit a string of brutal crimes. With the holiday spirit shattered, Tracy and Sam step away from the party to pursue a killer whose fire-lit crimes burn a trail through the city. Written by Chester Gould and illustrated by Joe Simon and Gould, with inks by Simon and Gould, this 1954 issue delivers a gripping, pulse-pounding mystery with a cover by Gould that captures the tension in bold, unmistakable style.
