Harold Lincoln Gray était un dessinateur et caricaturiste américain dont le travail a considérablement évolué au fil du temps. Ses bandes dessinées sont passées d'un début mélodramatique à des histoires atmosphériques aux intrigues romanesques, souvent imprégnées de sa profonde philosophie politique conservatrice. Le style distinctif de Gray et son approche narrative, en particulier son utilisation de dialogues contemplatifs, ont ajouté une profondeur et une complexité considérables au médium de la bande dessinée, laissant un héritage artistique durable.
