All Star Western #116

This January 1960 DC Western delivers a double-length thriller as Johnny Thunder — handcuffed and straining against the jail bars — struggles to fend off a masked, gun-wielding villain while an elderly lawman looks on helplessly in the background. Gil Kane's pencils and Joe Giella's inks give the confrontation a raw, kinetic energy that practically leaps off the ten-cent cover. "Mystery of the Masked Menace!" promises exactly the kind of tightly wound Western suspense that Robert Kanigher does so well.
