Buck Ryan 01- 79 (Complete Series) Don Freeman - Jack Monk


Buck Ryan was a UK newspaper adventure comic strip created by Jack Monk 
and the writer Don Freeman.

Monk and Freeman were doing an adaptation of Edgar Wallace's Terror 
Keep for the Daily Mirror. When it was dropped shortly due to a rights problem, Monk and Freeman decided to fashion their own strip, and Buck Ryan was born. It ran in the 
Daily Mirror from 22 March 1937 to July 1962.

Buck Ryan started again in the Daily Mirror 3 August 2015.

Characters and story:

The two-fisted, brown-haired Buck, the strip's protagonist, is a young British private investigator who fights crime. His antagonists include the lady crime boss Twilight along with various 
kidnappers and German spies.

Twilight later reformed. She and Ryan were shown to be an item in at least one 
f the later stories and are shown to be about to kiss in some of the strip's panels.

79 issues

Paw Broon; Wiseman; Crash Ryan did the heavy lifting with invaluable help, missing tiers and info from paulSB878, Leonardo De Sá, Chimp Twist, Franco Giacomini, Phillipe Ramet.
