Beagle, Homer K. Homer K. Beagle is a screwball detective who learned everything he knows about detection from books. He quits his job at the honey factory and opens a private detective agency, and despite his best efforts is successful at it, more through dumb luck and base cleverness than any higher intellectual agencies. He appears in stories with titles like “The Case of the Careless Cousin” and “The Case of the Hairless Hound.”

First Appearance:  Young King Cole #1 (Novelty Press), Fall 1945. 21 appearances, 1945-1949. Created by Harvey Fuller and Robert Plate.
