Edward Lear (? - ?) is a crime-fighting poet and humorist.
His principal crime-fighting techniques:
- As a humorist, who charmed birds and animals into doing small deeds for him
- As a travel guide, by capturing his retinal data, which he reworked later, sometimes as light art (nonfiction) for his travel books
- As a (occasional) member of musical electroplating ensembles, notably Chrome Plover and Reverse Drain Bamage
Lear and Mark Twain are notorious drinking buddies.
Fiction cross-reference
