''Dateline: Danger!'' is an American syndicated newspaper comic strip published from 1968 to 1974, created and produced by writer John Saunders and artist Al McWilliams. The series, about two intelligence agents working undercover as reporters, co-starred the character Danny Raven, the first African-American lead character of a mainstream comic strip. ==Publication history== Inspired by the television series ''I Spy'', the first TV dramatic show to co-star an African-American in a lead role, writer John Saunders and artist Al McWilliams created the adventure comic strip ''Dateline: Danger!'' for the Publishers-Hall Syndicate. Introduced as both a daily and a color Sunday strip in November 1968,〔 it similarly was the first in this medium with an African-American lead character, Danny Raven. As in the TV show, the two protagonists were American secret agents who globetrotted to trouble spots under the cover of another profession. Comics historian Maurice Horn wrote, The comic strip ran through 1974.〔 A consultant on the strip was Saunders' father, Allen Saunders, writer of the comic strips ''Steve Roper and Mike Nomad'', ''Mary Worth'' and ''Kerry Drake''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= PCL MS-48: Allen and John Saunders Collection )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dateline: Danger!」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
