Gunsmoke Western #68

Kid Colt, Outlaw finds himself outnumbered and crouching behind a barrel in the middle of a dusty frontier street, firing back at three determined gunmen who close in from every angle — with even more figures lurking on rooftops in the background. Jack Kirby's cover pencils and Dick Ayers' inks give the scene a kinetic energy that practically rattles off the page, capturing the split-second tension of "The Anatomy of a Gun-Fight!" in vivid 1962 Marvel style. If you enjoy fast-drawing heroes with their backs against the wall, this issue of Gunsmoke Western promises some fine frontier action courtesy of Stan Lee and Jack Keller's storytelling.
