Kid Colt Outlaw #167

Marvel's longest-running Western series delivers a pulse-pounding cover for issue #167, with Kid Colt urging his horse Steel into a breathtaking leap across a rocky canyon while mounted pursuers close in hard from behind. The cover copy promises a story that "begins with a daring leap for life" before plunging into the mysteries of a haunted mine, setting up a tale with both action and atmosphere. Dick Ayers and Jack Abel give the scene real kinetic energy — Kid Colt's blond hair flying, his mount stretched full-out mid-leap — making this 1973 entry a fine showcase for Marvel's frontier storytelling.
