Dick Tracy: Secret Files | Martin Harry Greenberg

I'm sad that I've finished this. Haven't seen the Dick Tracy movie since childhood, and these stories are the first ones I've ever read about this character.

When I first discovered this book amongst my brother's things, I immediately wanted to read through it as fast as possible. Then I realized what a mistake that would be for me to do. 👇

AnnCrystal My brother was the last one to read this book, and it's the first of his books (aside from the books in our shared kid Library) that I've read. This became like a buddy-read between my big bro and I. I even believe I know which story was his favorite 💎⛵🦈😉🥰.

This book has reintroduced me to a character that I've always been a fan of, and made me realize that I should have long ago seek out stories 👇

AnnCrystal about this sleek, street-smart yet classy, intelligent, noir-time cop.

Dick Tracy will always have a place among my Batman books, and this book will be given a place of honor beside my all time favorite “Batman Begins“ book.

Funny, my brother had been the one who introduced both of these characters to me.

AnnCrystal P.S.Hope to one day see a new Dick Tracy series. Perhaps with Bradley Cooper??? I haven't seen any of his movies yet, but I saw a clip of Maestro. (edited) 1w

AnnCrystal About three (different) offensive slur words throughout.

And one of the stories was about a child killer.

The journey through the 40days of Lent is complete!

OK, where to begin? With this one! The one that tempted me!

When I went into my family's storage to collect my box of gold 🌟 books that I had stashed away, I sneaked a peek into one of the boxes filled with my brother's old things and found this!

Automatically, I whipped up a post to share here on Litsy...then realized what I was doing!

What an epic find. Hadn't known my brother had this. 👇

AnnCrystal Read through the first story, then made myself wait until Easter to continue.

Actually, there are a few books that I hit the pause button on until after Easter.

I believe that I have devoured more books in 40 days than I usually do in 30 days (which is normally about half a book)! I do believe I was testing myself 😂😉.

Time for me to become aquatinted with the famous Dick Tracy...and his world. 👇

Thank you @dabbe for creating this play~tag~share card.

Was going to post yesterday, when I realized just how many sleuths I like! Then something whimsical happened, 1 stood out for me. The funny thing is that I haven't watched/read about him since childhood. My brother was a fan. Yet every time I run across his name or outline I smile silly-like!

I thought it be fun to turn the tables here and make this a game for you.

Who am I talking about?

AnnCrystal Here are some hints:

A comic strip is literature right?

He was born on Sunday, October 4, 1931.

He's world is noir, yet his attire is loud.

His name is iconic, and so is his profile.
