Dick Tracy's City and the Police Department it is part of is never named, although there are hints it is based upon Chester Gould's residence of Chicago Illinois. It is beside a large bay/lake. It is located in a midwestern state close to Ohio.
Police Chiefs in Dick Tracy comic Strip 1920–2020
Five members of the police have been exposed as either corrupt or having ties with "The Apparatus" [i.e. Organized Crime]
After a 28-year absence, returned to the strip in 1978; having attained financial security for the first time and operating a playhouse theatre in Dick Tracy's city(although he also had a mansion in Hollywood). Entered into another successful May/December marriage with Kandikane Lane; successful freelance film-maker. The famous Flintheart vitality proved still active, as Kandikane presented him with a son.
B.U. TIFFIL(1980)---Famous actress, the daughter of BO Plenty's sister(revealed for the first time that the family wasn't just "eight boys"). Came to town to star in a play with Vitamin Flintheart; both her agent and her husband disliked the financial sacrifice she was making to do so. Various sabotage attempts were made on the production, which were eventually traced to her agent PUSHY POINTER; who had blackmailed his way into B.U.'S inner circle. Pushy accidentally shot Sparkle Plenty when aiming for B.U.---and sustained body-cast injuries attempting to escape. Tracy cleaned up the"blackmail" matter. And Sparkle Plenty and Junior Tracy fell in love during her recovery period.
One of the appeals of the Dick Tracy comic strip is its unique villains. Many had bizarre deformities, including the Blank (1937), Little Face Finny (1941), Pruneface (1943), the Brow (1944), Shaky (1945), and Pearshape (1949).Chester Gould wrote these villains for his reader's righteous condemnation, without exploring moral gray areas. This was emphasized by depicting the heroes as attractive and the villains as grotesque. Other notable villains include Big Boy (1931), Breathless Mahoney (1931), and Flattop (1943).
