Nick Carter (character)

(Redirected from Nick Carter (literary character))
Nick Carter is a fictional character who began as a dime

Nick Carter
novel private detective in 1886 and has appeared in a variety
of formats over more than a century. The character was first
conceived by Ormond G. Smith and created by John R.
Coryell. Carter headlined his own magazine for years, and was
then part of a long-running series of novels from 1964 to 1990.
Films were created based on Carter in France, Czechoslovakia
and Hollywood. Nick Carter has also appeared in many comic
books and in radio programs.
Literary history
Nick Carter first appeared in the story paper New York
Weekly (Vol. 41 No. 46, September 18, 1886) in a 13-week
serial, "The Old Detective's Pupil; or, The Mysterious Crime of
Madison Square"; the character was conceived by Ormond G.
Smith, the son of one of the founders of Street & Smith, and
realized by John R. Coryell.[1] Coryell retired from writing
Nick Carter novels and the series was taken over by Frederick Created by Ormond G. Smith,
Van Rensselaer Dey, who wrote 1,076 novels and stories from John R. Coryell
1890 until his suicide in 1922.[2] The character proved popular
enough to headline its own magazine, Nick Carter Weekly. Portrayed Pierre Bressol
The serialized stories in Nick Carter Weekly were also by Walter Pidgeon
reprinted as stand-alone titles under the New Magnet Library Lon Clark
imprint.[3] By 1915, Nick Carter Weekly had ceased Eddie Constantine
publication and Street & Smith had replaced it with Detective Robert Conrad
Story Magazine, which focused on a more varied cast of Michal Dočolomanský
characters. There was a brief attempt at reviving Carter in In-universe information
1924–27 in Detective Story Magazine, but it was not
successful. Gender Male
Occupation Detective
In the 1930s, due to the success of The Shadow and Doc
Savage, Street & Smith revived Nick Carter in a pulp magazine (called Nick Carter Detective
Magazine) that ran from 1933 to 1936. Since the Doc Savage character had basically been given
Nick's background, Nick Carter was now recast as more of a hard-boiled detective. Novels
featuring Carter continued to appear through the 1950s, by which time there was also a popular
radio show, Nick Carter, Master Detective, which aired on the Mutual Broadcasting System
network from 1943 to 1955.
Killmaster revival
Following the success of the James Bond series in the 1960s, the character was updated for a long-
running series of novels featuring the adventures of secret agent Nick Carter, aka the Killmaster.
The first book, Run Spy Run, appeared in 1964 and more than 260 Nick Carter-Killmaster
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Carter_(character) 1/18
adventures were published up until 1990.
Two additional books have been erroneously listed as

Killmaster novels by some sources: Meteor Eject!, a memoir by
an RAF pilot named Nick Carter, published in 2000, and a
2005 release entitled Brotherhood, which is actually an
autobiography of singer Nick Carter of the Backstreet Boys.
The 100th Killmaster novel—Nick Carter 100—was

accompanied by an essay on the 1890s version, and a short
story featuring the character; that marked one of the few times
the Killmaster series acknowledged its historical roots.
None of the Nick Carter series of books carried author credits,

although it is known that several of the earliest volumes were
written by Michael Avallone, and that Valerie Moolman and
NYT bestselling author Gayle Lynds wrote others, making this
the first series of its kind to be written in significant part by From The New Magnet Library
women. Bill Crider is another author identified with Nick Collection at The George Peabody
Carter.[4] Library
The Nick Carter name was treated as if it were a pseudonym,

and many of the volumes were written in the first person.[5]

Films
The character has had a long and varied film history, with three countries producing films based
on it.
France
Éclair
In 1908, the French film company Éclair engaged Victorin-Hippolyte Jasset to make a serial film
based on the Nick Carter novels which were then being published in France by the German
publisher Eichler. Nick Carter, le roi des détectives, with Pierre Bressol in the title role, was
released in six episodes in late 1908, and enjoyed considerable success. Further adaptations
followed with Nouvelles aventures de Nick Carter in 1909, and the character was revived for a
confrontation with a master criminal in Zigomar contre Nick Carter[13] in 1912.[14]
1960s
American actor Eddie Constantine played the title roles in the French-made spy films Nick Carter
va tout casser (1964) and Nick Carter et le trèfle rouge (1965). In one curiously circular and self-
referential scene, Constantine (as Carter) enters a house where he finds a large collection of Nick
Carter pulp magazines and other Nick Carter memorabilia. Both films are unconnected to the
Killmaster book series.
Germany
The Hotel in Chicago (1920), The Passenger in the Straitjacket (1922), Women Who Commit
Adultery (1922), and Only One Night (1922) are among the silent films made in Germany
featuring Nick Carter.
United States
MGM
Walter Pidgeon portrays Nick Carter in a trilogy of films released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer: Nick
Carter, Master Detective (1939), Phantom Raiders (1940 and Sky Murder (1940). Though MGM
owned the rights to a large number of Nick Carter stories, the films used original screenplays.[15]
In the 1944 MGM movie The Thin Man Goes Home, detective Nick Charles (William Powell) is
seen reading a Nick Carter Detective magazine while relaxing in a hammock.
Columbia
Columbia could not afford the rights to produce a Nick Carter serial, so they made one about his
son instead; Chick Carter, Detective appeared in 1946.
Television
In 1972, Robert Conrad made a television pilot, The Adventures of Nick Carter, which was set in
the Victorian era, It was shown as a rare made-for-TV installment of the ABC Sunday Night
Movie, which normally featured theatrical releases edited for broadcast.
Czechoslovakia
The Czechoslovakian movie Dinner for Adele (1977) is a parody inspired by Nick Carter's pulp
magazine adventures. It features "America's most famous detective" visiting Prague at the
beginning of the 20th century and solving a case involving a dangerous carnivorous plant (the
Adele of the title). The Slovak actor Michal Dočolomanský played Nick Carter.
Radio
Nick Carter first came to radio as The Return of Nick
Carter. Then Nick Carter, Master Detective, with Lon
Clark in the title role, began April 11, 1943, on Mutual,
continuing in many different timeslots for well over a decade.
Jock MacGregor was the producer-director of scripts by Alfred
Bester, Milton J. Kramer, David Kogan and others.
Background music was supplied by organists Hank Sylvern,
Lew White and George Wright.
Patsy Bowen, Nick's assistant, was portrayed by Helen Choate

until mid-1946 and then Charlotte Manson stepped into the
role. Nick and Patsy's friend was reporter Scubby Wilson (John
Kane). Nick's contact at the police department was Sgt.
Mathison (Ed Latimer). The supporting cast included
Raymond Edward Johnson, Bill Johnstone and Bryna
Charlotte Manson and Lon Clark in
Raeburn. Michael Fitzmaurice was the program's announcer.
the Mutual series Nick Carter,
The series ended on September 25, 1955.
Master Detective (1946)
Chick Carter, Boy Detective was a serial adventure that
aired weekday afternoons on Mutual. Chick Carter, the
adopted son of Nick Carter, was played by Bill Lipton (1943–44) and Leon Janney (1944–45). The
series aired from July 5, 1943 to July 6, 1945.[16]
Comic books
In 1937, the Brazilian comic artist Renato Silva published a comic strip strip starring Nick Carter
published in the comic book Suplemento Juvenil.[17]
Nick Carter and Chick Carter appeared in comics published by Street & Smith from 1940 to
1949.[18]
