The Punisher and Dick Tracy

 

This is a confrontation I would like to see.  Tracy's extensive rogues gallery is filled with just the type of criminals that would attract the attention of Frank Castle - but a clash of tactics is sure to ensue.  There's definitely good story potential there.

I couldn't agree with you more, Ross. When it comes to bringing them in alive, nobody is a straighter shooter than Dick Tracy.

While Cary's not exactly right-- Tracy's fired his share of fatal shots in his time, though always in keeping with the proper use of lethal force -- in principle I agree. Punisher's "shoot first and ask questions if you feel like it" approach would definitely put him on Tracy's personal "Most Wanted" list.

I'd love to see a pairing of Dick Tracy and Slam Bradley. Or maybe a superteam of gumshoes like them.

Now this is a truly inspiring team-up! It would be great if it turned out that they were somehow related. Keep it up Ross!

Richard Tracy Castle??? Nah! Sounds too much like some royal palace in a fantasy swashbuckler from Peter Jackson.

And tomorrow's follow-up is JJJ gets Frank to go after his newest problem. Tune in as Castle storms the Menace of Dennis.

It might be more interesting to see Frank going after Calvin & Hobbes.

@Bob: that'd be no contest. Officer Hobbes of Cat Precinct would simply send for Stupendous Man as back up!
