Speck is a well-intentioned, spirited, energetic, and often all-too-human boy of the cloth, there to serve, to support, and when possible, to mooch your sweet snacks.
Tut LeBlanc was a talented cartoonist who created Speck for a single, local paper, not realizing at the time that his creation would go national and outlive him by decades. Begun in 1951 during the Catholic cartoon explosion, ‘Speck’ held a special place in a world otherwise filled with Sisters, Fathers, and Brothers.
This volume collects all the cartoons from both of the original two books of Tut LeBlanc’s work: An Altar Boy Named ‘Speck’ and ‘Speck’: More Cartoons. (Also available: Speck the Altar Boy: The Collection Compilation, collecting two books of cartoons by Margaret Ahern, who took over the series after LeBlanc’s early death.)
