Bat Lash #4
In "La mégère du Texas," a cursed gun passes between enemies in a brutal Texas showdown, each shot echoing with grim fate. Written by Howard Liss and brought to life with sharp, expressive art by Fred Ray, this 1971 tale unfolds with a haunting rhythm, where every bullet carries a weight beyond the trigger. The cover by Nick Cardy captures the tension in bold, dynamic lines.
In "La naissance de B'wana," the mystery of the jungle's protector deepens as Rupert and Michael seek refuge in a high-altitude cave on Kilimanjaro. After drinking mineral-rich water, Michael undergoes a transformation, gaining strength and the ability to speak with animals when a strange helmet is placed upon his head—becoming the legendary B'wana Beast. With his new powers, he vows to defend the Zambesi Game Preserve, while Rupert, now appointed national police commissioner, is tasked with capturing the very creature he helped create.
In "La 13ème balle," a cursed rifle passes between enemies on a blood-soaked battlefield, each man felled by the same grim fate—twelve kills, then the thirteenth shot turns on the shooter. The weight of war and the eerie rhythm of fate hang heavy as the gun’s deadly pattern repeats across the lines.
