With Krypto confirmed for the upcoming Superman movie, I think it's high time for a live action Ace the Bat-Hound. Whether as part of the new DCU iteration of Batman or an adaptation of Batman Beyond, we need to see the Dark Knight Dog do his thing.

One of the few downsides to the Golden Age of Comics was that it occurred during World War II. Consequently, those of us who read reprints of those stories (either on-line or in trade paperbacks) will see that much of the dialogue and artwork from that time was more-than-a-tad racist with regard to villains working for the Axis Powers. German spies wore monocles and pronounced their w's like v's. While Japanese spies had overbites and transposed their l's and r's. Unfortunately, such stereotyping was not only considered politically correct back then. It was deemed an absolutely vital part of patriotic morale boosting!
That having been said, I commend you, Ross, on being able to find and reproduce this particular image from Dick Tracy's comic strip. If only to show that even he and his originator had to bow such now-controversial pressure.
I wonder how Bathound from the Krypto animated series would get along with Hemlock Bones (the bulldog who dressed like a London bobby) from the 1960's Dick Tracy cartoons?
Dick Sprang did Ace? It's just that Ace looks a little off. Tracy looks young. Guess Tracy's ok with the detective who 'owns' Ace. How would Tracy do with Nightwing?
I assume you mean, the post-Silver Age Dick Grayson rather than the Kandorian original?
only seen a few Dick Tracy bits,
so i presume Ace is the Brains of this pairing…
