TCJ Does a Lengthy Piece on Marriage in ‘Buz Sawyer’

Over at The Comics’ Journal, there’s a nice piece from Frank M. Young on how Roy Crane handled marriage in his King Features’ comic “Buz Sawyer.”

From the piece:

This is the triumph of Buz Sawyer. Though full of violence—with moments of stark brutality that rival Chester Gould’s Dick Tracy—Sawyer is a character study that inverts the romantic notion of the soldier of fortune and shows the impact of an adventurous life on a down-to-earth marriage.
