Nero Wolfe is a brilliant, obese and eccentric fictional armchair detective created in 1934 by American mystery writer Rex Stout. Wolfe was born in Montenegro and keeps his past murky. He lives in a luxurious brownstone on West 35th Street in New York City, and he is loath to leave his home for business or anything that would keep him from reading his books, tending his orchids, or eating the gourmet meals prepared by his chef, Fritz Brenner. Archie Goodwin, Wolfe's sharp-witted, dapper young confidential assistant with an eye for attractive women, narrates the cases and does the legwork for the detective genius.

In the beginning, the art on both dailies and Sundays was signed "Mike Roy." Beginning July 15, 1957 (dailies), and July 28 (Sundays) that signature changes to "Fran Matera." Then on August 26, 1957 (dailies), and September 8 (Sundays) and through the rest of the run, the strips are signed by artist Jim Christiansen.[
