Four Color #333

Dell's Four Color line brings Zane Grey's frontier adventure "Wilderness Trek" to vivid life in this 52-page all-comics picturized edition. The cover pulls no punches: a red-shirted cowboy on a rearing black horse levels his rifle at a massive, jaws-wide alligator lunging from the water, while a covered wagon and riders struggle through the river crossing behind him. Gaylord Du Bois adapts Grey's rugged storytelling into sequential art, capturing the raw, untamed danger that made Grey's westerns so compelling to 1951 readers.
