Black Fury #12

This February 1958 Charlton issue puts "The Wonder Horse" front and center, with a vivid cover by Maurice Whitman showing Black Fury — a powerful, wild-eyed black stallion — surging through churning white water while a red-haired boy clings desperately to the horse's neck. The urgency and raw energy of that water-crossing scene capture everything that makes this series so appealing to fans of Western adventure. Inside, writer Joe Gill and artist Rocco Mastroserio bring their talents to "The Waterhole," promising another worthy chapter in the saga of what the cover itself calls "the Greatest Horse of the West.
