"Brand of Empire" in Four Color #771 (1957) delivers a sharp, grounded tale of power and deception, where a senator's ambitions threaten both a Ute Indian reservation and the region's fragile peace. Written by Paul S. Newman and illustrated with crisp detail by Mort Drucker—both inks and pencils—this story unfolds with quiet tension, centered on a land grab tied to a hidden fortune in coal. The cover by Mort Drucker captures the era’s stark realism, matching the issue’s unflinching look at greed and legacy.
