Annie Oakley

Sharp-shooting her way onto the pages of Charlton's Cowboy Western Comics in 1952, Annie Oakley arrived at the tail end of the Golden Age when the American West was prime comic book territory, brought to life by the creative team of Andrea Lavezzolo, Giovanni Sinchetto, and Dario Guzzon. She rides through a rollicking corner of the frontier where legends like Wild Bill Hickok and Jesse James share the same ink-stained plains, making for some genuinely storied company. Her appearances span Cowboy Western Comics, Six-Gun Heroes, and Gwandanaland Comics — a trail that marks her as a recognizable face in the classic Western comics tradition. For collectors with a soft spot for Golden Age Charlton and the wide-open genre that defined an era, she's a charming find.
