Fletcher Hanks, Sr. was a cartoonist from the Golden Age of Comic Books, who wrote and drew stories detailing the adventures of all-powerful, supernatural heroes and their elaborate punishments of transgressors. In addition to his birth name, Hanks worked under a number of pen names, including "Hank Christy," "Charles Netcher," "Chris Fletcher", "C. C. Starr," and "Barclay Flagg." Hanks was active in comic books from 1939 to 1941, when he left for reasons still unknown.

He continued to live in Oxford, Maryland, where he became the president of its town commission in 1958–60. Years later, his body was found on a park bench in Manhattan in 1976; he had frozen to death, penniless and likely drunk.
