Four Color #738

Dell's Four Color #738 brings Walt Disney's 1956 frontier adventure Westward Ho the Wagons! to the comics page, adapting the movie story with art by Dan Spiegle. The cover presents a trio of photo stills from the film — a rugged frontiersman gripping a rifle in his wide-brimmed hat, a tense face-to-face encounter between a settler and a Native American chief in full headdress, and a striking close-up of that same leather-jacketed hero crouched warily with his rifle at the ready. It's a handsome, action-charged package that captures the spirit of westward expansion, brought to life by writer Elizabeth Beecher and artist Dan Spiegle.
