Roy Carson

Roy Carson is a British hard-boiled detective created in 1948 by Denis McLoughlin and his brother Colin and first published by Boardman Books in their series of rotogravure comic books (1948–1954). Roy, with his plucky girl companion Silk, faced all manner of underworld adventures with an odd combination of American and British elements. Boardman Books also used Roy Carson in text stories published in their children's annuals in the 1950s. In the late-1950s and early 1960s, Roy Carson stories were reprinted in a number of British albums and annuals. In 1999, the comic fanzine Best of British #1 reprinted Roy Carson and the Old Master, originally published in 1953.

gollark: (skynetv2 is the current one, v3 is hypothetical future skynet)

gollark: SPUDNET, which has more active evolution and also possibly asynchronous commands, does have a command ID option in its v4 protocol, which could be backported to skynetv3 or something.

gollark: Fair.

gollark: Websocket does guarantee ordering I believe, it runs over TCP.
