Gunmaster #84

This 1965 Charlton adventure puts the masked Gunmaster and his young partner Bullet the Gun Boy front and center, both crouched in action-ready stances with pistols drawn against a vivid backdrop of orange flames. Dick Giordano's cover work gives the duo a real sense of urgency, with the bold tagline promising a showdown over stolen gold and a face-off with "The Brain" — billed right on the cover as the most dangerous outlaw of all. Writer Joe Gill and artist Pete Morisi, inked by Rocke Mastroserio, bring the interior story to life, making this a satisfying twelve-cent package of Western heroics.
