Character History
The stories featured the adventurous sailor O'Casey and a pet monkey, Mr. Hogan. Later on, O'Casey left his monkey and started traveling with a new first-mate named Mike Bellew. O'Casey and Bellew were down on their luck adventurers looking to transport cargo, search for the odd bit of treasure or help damsels in distress.
So far O'Casey has made only one appearance in DC Comics, in the 1998 Captain Marvel comic book, The Power of Shazam!, portraying an aged, yet feisty, sailor in issue #34.

Famous quotes containing the words character and/or history:
“Most bad books get that way because their authors are engaged in trying to justify themselves. If a vain author is an alcoholic, then the most sympathetically portrayed character in his book will be an alcoholic. This sort of thing is very boring for outsiders.”
—Stephen Vizinczey (b. 1933)
“The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
