Hopalong Cassidy #133

DC's long-running Western series rides hard into February 1959 with this action-packed installment featuring "The Golden Trail to Danger!" The cover by Gil Kane and Joe Giella captures Hopalong Cassidy — dressed in his signature black — crouched atop a speeding stagecoach, pistol drawn, while a gunman in yellow lurks below and a pair of hard-riding outlaws bear down from the dusty trail behind. It's a tense, beautifully composed scene that showcases why this series, starring William Boyd's beloved cowboy hero, remained a staple of DC's Western lineup throughout the late 1950s.
