Hopalong Cassidy #73

Fawcett's long-running Western series rides into issue #73 with a striking photo cover of William Boyd in full Hopalong Cassidy regalia — black hat, black outfit, twin revolvers drawn and ready against a rugged outdoor backdrop. Flanking the photo are vivid comic panels teasing the action inside, with punches landing ("BAM!", "WHAM!") and a tense gunfight moment captioned with sharp dialogue, all building toward the promised story "Diamonds of Death!" At just a dime, this November 1952 issue delivers the kind of two-fisted frontier excitement that made Hoppy a household name across both the silver screen and the funny pages.
