Lance O'Casey is a fictional character who had his own strip in Fawcett Comics' Whiz Comics. The stories, featuring the adventurous sailor O'Casey and a pet monkey named Mr. Hogan, were popular backup stories to the book's main attractions of Captain Marvel and Spy Smasher. Later on O'Casey left his monkey and started travelling with a new first-mate named Mike Bellew. O'Casey and Bellew were down on their luck adventurers looking to transport cargo, search for the odd bit of treasure or help damsels in distress.
So far O'Casey has made only one appearance in DC Comics, in the 1998 Captain Marvel comic book, The Power of Shazam!, portraying an aged, yet fiesty, sailor in issue #34.
