Four Color #1261

In "The Lone Rustler," a 1961 Four Color comic from Dell, the rugged cowboy Wishbone finds himself unexpectedly drawn into a tribal tradition after giving a ride to the chief's daughter on his way back to camp. When the young woman's father insists he marry her, a rival warrior challenges Wishbone to a test of strength, and Rowdy devises a clever scheme to help him avoid the duel without breaking the peace. With art by Dan Spiegle, this Western tale blends frontier tension and unexpected romance, all rendered in the classic style of the era.
