suggests that Charteris did not have approval over the finished comic books of this Avon series. Putting the correspondence dates on a timeline implies that he was given proofs just as the issue was going to press, and he would provide feedback in regards to his preferences for future issues from these proofs. It appears that Charteris gave detailed feedback on the dialog and artwork of each issue He may have approved individual artists or character styles based on samples.

I'm sorry that you react so violently to criticism, but I'm afraid you're going to have to get used to the idea at least until you are generally accepted as the dean of comic strip artists.

It's rather silly of you to maintain that you will draw hands as you goddam please, because you won't. Anyone with experience in producing licensed comic books will tell you that such contention between licensor and publisher is far from uncommon. Both parties want to get it right and have specific but sometimes conflicting ideas on how that should be accomplished. The reality of licensed comic books is that work sometimes has multiple hands involved, goes through multiple revisions, or that artists are sometimes compelled to stray from their usual style of drawing hands .
