10 Greatest Dick Tracy Villains - Rogues' Gallery

[@ststriker]

Whenever someone is asked which comic book character has the best rouges, people usually always say Batman. Maybe a few will say Spider-Man is a close number 2, but no one ever mentions Dick Tracy. I'd argue that Tracy is a strong contender for greatest rouge gallery.

[@mackbonham1]

I think it's because Tracy is more strongly associated with comics strips as opposed to comic books. People just tend not to think of him in that same category.

[@pennywise4349]

I think one the interesting about Dick Tracy Villains. Is once they were dead. They were not coming back.

[@Timidogenerico]

Duuuuude they all look bizarre AF. What a style, very iconic

[@supamariosoniku]

You should watch the 90’s film. Kinda reminds me of Batman 1989, especially considering they have the same score composer Danny Elfman

[@RageONTv]

I loved how Beatte managed to bring life to these villains. Hated that he killed them all in the movie.

[@douglasbabb1725]

I liked the film, but I thought they tried to do too much with the movie's runtime. I think if they used less villains, they probably would have had a stronger film.

[@RageONTv]

@@douglasbabb1725 100% agree

[@dennistheconstitutionalpea6174]

Without Dick Tracy, I guarantee you there's no Batman. Career as a crime fighter created because a tragedy (right down to the oath making), a city to protect, an iconic look, a youthful sidekick, the police are helpless without help him and, of course, the eccentric, aptly-named rogues gallery.

Wow it's amazing how much Batman a d Steve ditko used Tracy as inspiration. It's easy to see the blank as the question.

[@vividwatch47]

John Romita (Ditko's successor) used Tracy as an inspiration.

I used to love reading Dick Tracy in the comic strips. He had a lot of high tech gadgets including a smart watch.

[@tayojones9460]

Think you can do a top ten list for the spirit's rogues gallery?

[@dougshoemaker7733]

The Brow had the most memorable death.

[@FilmmakeroftheFuture]

I like Flattop and his brood best. :)

[@mike8555]

Could you do a video on 'Dynamite' comics characters?

[@peterkirgan2921]

Mumbles always gets me!!!😂lol

[@nickyborrisino]

Chester Gould’s character design could easily be called the precursor for early Japanese anime and manga.

[@SpookerDoom]

I'd love to know what you're using as reference. You added a pic of Flattop Jr while discussing Flattop himself. You have your early period and your post-Gould period, missing everything from the fifties throughout the seventies. Crewy Lou, Mr. Bribery, Posey, Spots &Ogden are criminally overlooked.

[@shayne87]

same. Especially Flattop Jrs death at the hand of the ghost

[@SpookerDoom]

@shayne87 at the hands of officer Lizz, in self-defense

[@djbloodshot]

I was hoping lips manilis would be on here

[@fuscinula]

I would have added Shoulders and Shaky.

[@fvillag1]

Do not forget Green Lantern, Superman, Atom and Metal Men rogues gallery.

[@musicman2569]

Fantastic list but what about Big Boy Caprice?

[@musicman2569]

Sergio Andrade oh well than never mind

[@princebloodgrave8097]

BB Eyes should also me an honorable mention. :)

[@robertsantana3261]

AWESOME SITE. TRACY RULES. Let's include WILLIE THE FIFTH, OODLES, and RUGHEAD.

[@bradleyrenfroe2776]

Maybe we should put a List for Duck Tracy's Rogues Gallery as well.

[@moniquedujardin1824]

I'm almost sure that there was a villain called Mucous Face. Was he in Dick Tracey comics or somewhere else?

[@fuscinula]

Maybe you're thinking Measles?

We need people who read Marvel and DC, the people who think the MCU is cool to read and collect Dick Tracy.

What, no love for The Brain?

[@jorgelopez-pr6dr]

I was thinking 🤔 that.

[@unstablebobgable]

Mumbles is my favorite.

[@riccardobravi9754]

Nice

[@bendkafka]

Where's Shaky and Mrs. Pruneface?

[@Okiedog1]

"Nazi agent" Somehow I'm not surprised. Should have added that little tidbit in the movie.

4:08 Who is that spooking Flattop in his car?

[@shawnmalone9711]

That was flattop jr. It was the ghost of a girl named skinny. He was upset with her because she sold a painting he painted. He thought it wouls lead the police on his trail. He threw her off a roof and the fall killed her. The ghost of skinny attached her self to his neck. Was it a ghost or flattop jr 's conscience that drove him mad? For weeks the ghost was around his neck and it drove him insane. Flattop jr's hair turned white as he kept running away. Flattop jr. was killed by Lizz the policewoman , and skinny's ghost said , " He paid , at last Flattop jr paid!" Skinny's ghost flew heavenward as Flattop jr. paid the ultimate price. This sequence occured in the fall of 1956 , during Dick Tracy 's going after the criminal Ivy. ( Boola ,boola)

[@michaelsimpson208]

Man, Dick Tracy had most of the "UGLIEST" villains!

[@FilmmakeroftheFuture]

True, but Flattop's wife, Stilleta Jones is quite a catch. Check it out. dicktracy.wikia.com/wiki/Stiletta_Jones

[@supamariosoniku]

Very interesting though

[@stevevondoom4140]

wasnt there a RubberHead guy too?

[@nooctip]

I think your thinking of that other classic cartoon cop...Duck Tracy

[@Reagan1984]

He’s gonna rub you out, see? Rub you out!

No split face from the t.v. sitcom?
