Ohiyesa "Pow-Wow" Smith

A trailblazing figure in DC's Western Comics lineup, Ohiyesa "Pow-Wow" Smith made his debut in 1954 — brought to life by the legendary Carmine Infantino and writer Ed Herron — as a distinctly original voice in the sun-baked frontier tales of the era. His run through the mid-fifties into the early sixties places him among a colorful roster of DC cowboy heroes, sharing pages with the likes of Hannibal Hawkes, The Wyoming Kid, and The Nighthawk. A rare and notable presence in a genre crowded with familiar archetypes, Pow-Wow Smith stands out as a character worth seeking out for collectors with a love of DC's rich Western heritage.
