Will Donald was an early Australian cartoonist, with cartoons and comics strips being published 1906 onwards (he started this career in his early 20s). He was a contributor to Vumps (an Australian written and drawn comic paper) starting with its first issue in 1908. He struck up a working relationship with Hal English in 1923, producing a comic strip called 'Fanny the Fashion Plate' in the Sunbeams comics supplement to the Sunday Sun newspaper. Donald also created left-leaning political cartoons under the pseudonym Adam Plass. In the Australian golden age of comics, his work was variously published by NSW Bookstall, the Offset Printing Company, and Pyramid Comics. He created a detective character, Shado McGraw, who was published by Offset usually in comics that had two lead features, most often paired with Red Steele by Hal English. Alongside this he ran, at various times, a school for cartoonists and a print shop. He died in 1959.

Thanks Dan. Another interesting one I've never heard of.

One of the things I enjoy about Will Donald's work is the expressionistic nature of both his writing and aet. It reminds me of, say, the 1966 Batman TV series or more recently the work of the late Richard Sala.

Talk about odd associations--his drawings made me think of Magnus (Roberto Raviola).
