Kid Colt Outlaw #129

Marvel's Kid Colt Outlaw rides hard into issue #129 with "The Range War of Vengeance Valley!" — and Dick Ayers's cover sets the stakes immediately, showing Kid Colt in his red shirt trading fierce blows with a green-jacketed opponent while rough-looking gunmen press in from all sides, hats flying and pistols drawn. The cover promises "blazing two-fisted action," and Ayers delivers exactly that in a tightly packed brawl scene that puts the frontier's lawless tension front and center. For fans of Marvel's Western line in 1966, this issue looks like a satisfying dose of range-country roughhousing with one of the genre's most enduring heroes.
