 Roy Crane's Two-Fisted Tales
No, Roy Crane never contributed to Harvey Kurtzman's Two-Fisted Tales, but he was the creator of the comic strip world's first two-fisted hero, Captain Easy, a strip that both Noel Sickles and Milton Caniff drew inspiration from as the hallmark of adventure continuity.
Crane employed bold primary colors in a complex pattern of panel arrangements that went beyond the simple tiers commonly used on Sunday pages, using unusual shapes and overlapping panels, dropping borders, and sometimes employing huge compositions that filled half a page.
Crane continued the adventures in the daily strip, but the bloom was off the rose and he eventually turned the strip over to his assistants, writer Ed Granberry and artist Hank Schlensker.
