Four Color #1146

This Dell "Exciting Adventure" tie-in to the Restless Gun TV series puts Vint Bonner front and center in a striking photo cover — hat tilted, revolver raised, and a steady gaze that says trouble is already close. The cover copy promises a wild stage run through Indian territory with an outlaw aboard and Cherokees on the warpath, setting up "Stranger on a Stage" as exactly the kind of high-tension Western ride Dell delivered so well in 1960. At just a dime, this Four Color entry is a fine snapshot of the era's TV-to-comics pipeline at its most straightforward and fun.
