    Short summary describing this character.

    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    Origin

    Harris Tweed is a bone-headed, vain, pompous, overconfident gloryhound M.I.5 agent, who would have long ago been captured or killed were it not for his massively more capable and intelligent assistant, whom Tweed condescendingly only ever calls "Boy."

    Creation

    Harris Tweed was created by John Ryan for the Eagle as a replacement for Captain Pugwash; deemed too infantile, Pugwash was fazed out the comic with his last appearance in issue #19, slightly overlapping Tweed, who debuted in "The Case of the Stolen Papers" in Eagle #16, cover dated 28th July 1950. Tweed's adventures ran for three years before the character was retired. Some of his early stories were collected in Hawk Books' Eagle Classics line, in the volume Harris Tweed, Extra Special Agent.
