Cheyenne Kid #76

Charlton's frontier gunslinger faces a decidedly exotic threat in this 1970 issue, as the cover by Sanho Kim sets the scene dramatically: a towering, sword-wielding figure with a long mustache looms over a determined Cheyenne Kid, who stands his ground with hand poised at his holster. The story title "The Killer from Hong Kong!" promises a collision of the Wild West and the Far East that feels genuinely fresh for the genre. Kim's bold linework gives both figures a sharp, kinetic energy that makes this one of Charlton's more visually striking western covers of the era.
