Cowboy Western #48

Charlton's Cowboy Western #48 brings the heat of the frontier right to the cover, where Golden Arrow finds himself under fire from a menacing green cannon mounted among rocky canyon walls, diving to avoid the blast while clutching his weapon in a desperate, split-second scramble. Cover artists Dick Giordano and Vince Alascia bring real kinetic energy to the scene, capturing both danger and determination in crisp 1954 style. With a lead story titled "Trigger Bait," this ten-cent Western is a fine example of Charlton's action-packed lineup at its most entertaining.
