Gene Autry Comics #3

This 1946 Dell issue brings America's favorite singing cowboy to the newsstands in fine style, with a striking photo cover showing Gene Autry crouched alertly on rocky terrain, rifle in hand, wearing his beautifully embroidered western shirt and white hat against a clear sky. The image captures that watchful, ready-for-anything quality that made Autry such a compelling western hero of the era. Inside, Jesse Marsh handles both pencils and inks for "Gene Autry and the Scarlet Three," promising the kind of two-fisted frontier adventure that kept readers coming back issue after issue.
