Four Color #1044

In "The Missing Man," Paladin is called to a remote ranch where cattle keep vanishing under mysterious circumstances. As he investigates, he finds himself facing a tense moral dilemma when he identifies the rancher’s foreman as a man with a past—one who insists he’s turned his life around, but whose loyalty is now in question. The story unfolds with quiet tension, grounded in the stark realism of Alberto Giolitti’s art, which brings every shadowed glance and weathered face to life.
