Jones / Little Chief

Silver Age Western comics had a particular knack for memorable supporting players, and Jones / Little Chief is a fine example of Charlton's frontier storytelling at work. Debuting in Cheyenne Kid #11 in 1958, this character was brought to life by artist Rocco "Rocke" Mastroserio, whose distinctive linework was a hallmark of Charlton's Western titles. Over a span of roughly thirteen years, Jones / Little Chief kept company with The Cheyenne Kid across the pages of Cheyenne Kid and Lash La Rue Western, a testament to the enduring appeal of Charlton's sun-baked, saddle-worn corner of the Silver Age. A modest but genuine piece of the Western comics tradition, this character is a rewarding find for collectors who love digging into the rich, underappreciated world of Charlton's frontier output.
