"Flame of the Frontier" delivers a gritty 1950s noir punch, spotlighting Joe Strange in a tale of betrayal and bloody retribution. With stark, expressive art by Frank Bolle, the story unfolds as a down-and-dirty crime thriller where a hitman’s loyalty is tested by forged money and a personal vendetta. The cover by Fred Guardineer captures the mood perfectly—tense and shadowed, just like the mystery within.
