Breathless Mahoney from the Dick Tracy comic strip is said to be modelled after actress Veronica Lake.

Is it true or just people’s assumptions? Has Chester Gould ever confirm that?

  • It's mentioned in a book by Garyn G Roberts Dick Tracy and American Culture: Morality and Mythology, Text and Context. It seems to be an assumption though and not directly linked to Chester Gould in this work. Commented Oct 14, 2022 at 18:33

    @DavidW - Dick Tracy seems pretty firmly on topic. At one point he had a space car and adventures on the moon Commented Oct 14, 2022 at 18:41
