Bat Lash #6
DC's charming, morally ambiguous frontier drifter takes a darker turn in Bat Lash #6 (September 1969), with Nick Cardy's cover painting a genuinely haunting picture: a rain-soaked young man stands grieving in a cemetery surrounded by burning crosses and fresh graves, vowing "I'll get your killer, Ma…Pa!" — while an unseen gunman's revolver looms in the foreground, aimed squarely at his back. The header's teasing question — "Will He Save the West — or Ruin It?" — perfectly captures the ambivalence that made Bat Lash one of DC's most compelling Western characters. With Sergio Aragonés and Denny O'Neil scripting and Mike Sekowsky contributing to the interior art, this issue brings serious creative firepower to a title that never shied away from mixing heart with danger.
