Gabby Hayes #58

The cover of this Charlton western, with pencils by Dick Giordano and inks by Vince Alascia, delivers exactly what the title promises — the beloved, white-bearded Gabby Hayes sent airborne by a charging, dust-kicking bull while a younger cowboy in a green shirt looks on from below, torch in hand. It's a wonderfully chaotic scene that captures the good-natured humor and frontier energy that made Gabby such an endearing figure in 1950s western entertainment. Inside, Marc Swayze handles both pencils and inks for the story "Not Hoggish," rounding out a solid package of action-packed tales at a dime a copy.
