In "Dead or Alive!", Stan Lee and John Romita deliver a tense, character-driven Western where Ben Smith—a man who’s never carried a gun—faces his greatest test when he intervenes to save a stagecoach under attack. With his wife’s departure weighing on him and a reputation for being gun-shy, Smith’s sudden act of bravery shocks everyone, including himself. Joe Maneely’s dynamic cover captures the moment’s intensity, perfectly framing the stakes of a man stepping into courage against all odds.
