Billy the Kid #85

Charlton's long-running Western series hits issue #85 with a tense saloon standoff rendered by José Delbo — Billy dominates the foreground in his signature blue hat, jaw set and hand hovering near his holster, while a menacing figure in a red shirt points a warning finger beneath the warm glow of a hanging lamp. The story title "Victim Without a Gun" promises exactly the kind of pressure-cooker moral dilemma that made these frontier tales so compelling, and the promise of all-new stories and art makes this 1971 issue a solid pick for any Western comics fan.
