Hopalong Cassidy #120

Hopalong Cassidy's white stallion Topper takes center stage on this 1956 DC entry, straining at a rope as a runaway wheeled jailhouse careens wildly behind him — a cover speech bubble making the stakes thrillingly clear. Gene Colan's pencils and Joe Giella's inks bring real energy to the dusty chaos, capturing the sort of ingenious western predicament that made "America's Favorite Cowboy" a staple of the era. Inside, John Broome and Gene Colan deliver "Salute to a Star-Wearer!" starring William Boyd, promising all-new frontier adventure at the classic ten-cent price point.
