Will Gould

Will Gould (1911–1984) was an American cartoonist best known for his comic strip Red Barry.[1]

Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Gould's strip about two-fisted undercover cop Red Barry began Monday, March 19, 1934, as one of several strips introduced to compete with Dick Tracy by Chester Gould (no relation). Comics historian Rick Marschall labeled Red Barry as "one of the most individualistic strips of all time."[2]
