Four Color #640

In "Western Marshal and the Iron Horse," Dan Mitchell is called back to duty as marshal to mediate the growing tension between railroad crews and wagon haulers, whose livelihoods hang in the balance as the iron horse advances across the frontier. Written by Paul S. Newman and brought to life with bold, expressive art by Everett Kinstler, this 1955 tale captures the clash of progress and tradition in a rugged Western landscape. The cover, by Sam Savitt, sets the scene with a striking image of the era’s defining conflict.
