Cheyenne Kid #68

Charlton's frontier hero rides hard through a blinding snowstorm on this September 1968 cover, the Cheyenne Kid hauling a rescued figure across his galloping horse while armed pursuers close in on foot behind them — a $5,000 bounty on their heads according to the cover's tense caption. Cover artist Rocco "Rocke" Mastroserio brings real urgency to the wintry scene, the snow-whipped pine trees and churning hooves making the desperate escape feel genuinely breathless. And if one western adventure isn't enough, this issue also features Wander, billed as "the great western hero from outer space," for a double dose of frontier thrills.
