Thanks to the late post by JoviusGM on yesterdayâs strip that the four specialists were all real Chicago criminals in the â20s. Iâm surprised it took that long before someone thought to find them. Here are a few references:Obituary for Dennis Cooney âThe DukeâWikipedia entry for James Cosmano âSunny JimâWikipedia article for Tommy OâConnor âTerrible Tommyâ (he escaped from the courthouse in Chicago in 1923 and was never seen again)Famous picture of James Franche âDuffy the Goatâ from 1914 (youâll notice that the bowler hat the day before yesterday did indeed belong to Duffy the Goat)
It looks like all four are seen again today.
