Bat Lash #3

DC's charming frontier rogue is front and center in this 1969 issue, as Bat Lash — flower in his hat and all — scrambles up a ladder while wrestling over an open, money-spilling satchel with a red-haired woman on horseback, bills flying in every direction. In the background, a gunfighter on a rearing horse fires two blazing pistols, adding to the delightful chaos that makes this series so distinctive. Nick Cardy's vibrant cover art captures the series' signature blend of Western action and roguish comedy perfectly, and the bold header — "Will he save the West — or RUIN it?" — sets up the irresistible tension at the heart of Bat Lash's appeal.
