Billy the Kid #88

Charlton's Billy the Kid #88 (December 1971) arrives with a cover by José Delbo that puts the legendary outlaw right in the thick of the action — guns blazing as he rides hard on a spotted horse, trading shots with a rifleman while a second gunman closes in from behind. The promise of "All New Stories and Art" holds up, with Joe Gill writing and Delbo handling the interior art as well, bringing his clean, dynamic linework to a tale titled "A Story of Greed." For fans of classic Western comics, this is a solid entry in Charlton's long-running frontier series at a time when the genre still had plenty of punch.
