Dick Tracy Annual

A single oversized issue from Avalon Communications, this 2000 annual updates the classic detective strip for a modern audience, featuring Dick Tracy in a new case that pits him against a fresh roster of grotesque villains. The issue is notable for its painted cover and interior art by Kyle Baker, whose expressive style brings a kinetic energy to Chester Gould's iconic creation. As the only entry in this series, it stands as a distinct, self-contained snapshot of Tracy in the early 21st century.
