In "The Outlaw Trail," two young boys find themselves caught in a dangerous game when they stumble upon the hideout of outlaw Cram Kincaid and his gang. With help from the steady hands of Favor and Yates, the boys must stay one step ahead as they flee the outlaws and seek safety with the sheriff and their fathers. Written by Eric Freiwald and Robert Schaefer and brought to life with bold, dynamic art by Russ Manning (pencils and inks), this 1960 Dell adventure captures the grit and suspense of the Old West in a story that’s as much about courage as it is about survival. Cover by Russ Manning.
