So, during the past year-and-a-half, Tracy has:
1. Allowed Bribery to escape from Ace Tower
2. Didn't bring charges against Mysta for her interference in the raid on Ace Tower (see above)
3. Allowed production of the "Midnite Mirror" film to continue after 2 confirmed murders took place on set
4. Prepared to leave Cuba without recovering the X-Ray glasses (he didn't know that Ivanova had them when they got on the plane)
5. Left Europe without confirming that Abner Kadaver is dead
6. Gave Blaze Rize - a wanted fugitive - a "couple of days" to put her affairs in order before taking her into custody
7. Allowed Selfy to sneak up on him, knock him unconscious and take his police equipment
8. Announced Sam Catchem's personal family medical issues to both the Mole and Fritz Ann.
Usually one doesn't think of "poor judgement" as a character trait that is common in the hero of a long-running piece of serialized fiction, and the creative team has certainly made a bold choice by giving it to Dick Tracy.
More to come.
