Created by Mike Barr, The Maze Agency comic was notable for presenting "fair play" mysteries; each individual comic included a crime, usually a murder, for the two leads to solve, with all the clues necessary to solve the case being given to the reader, allowing them a chance to figure out the murderer's identity before the detectives revealed it in the final pages of the issue.
