Harold Lincoln Gray fue un artista de periódicos y caricaturista estadounidense cuyo trabajo evolucionó significativamente con el tiempo. Sus tiras cómicas se transformaron de inicios melodramáticos a historias atmosféricas con tramas novelescas, a menudo infundidas con su profunda filosofía política conservadora. El estilo distintivo de Gray y su enfoque de la narración, particularmente su uso de diálogos contemplativos, añadieron considerable profundidad y complejidad al medio de las tiras cómicas, dejando un legado artístico duradero.
