Gunsmoke Western #72 from September 1962 spotlights the reader-requested story "How Kid Colt Became an Outlaw!" — a tale that clearly struck a nerve with fans of Marvel's frontier adventures. Jack Kirby and Dick Ayers deliver a tense cover scene: Kid Colt stands defiantly in a doorway, pistol drawn, while a shadowy rifleman crouches in the foreground and a crowd of hostile figures closes in from the street behind him. Kid Colt's thought balloon — "I'm hunted by the law… a target for badmen… a man with no place to turn!!" — sets the mood perfectly for a gunfighter caught between two dangerous worlds.
