Kid Colt Outlaw #62

This July 1956 Atlas Western finds Kid Colt in the thick of a Main Street shootout, guns blazing in both hands as a rival's hat goes flying from a well-placed shot and armed opponents close in from behind amid the dusty storefronts. Joe Maneely's cover art crackles with kinetic energy — bullets spark off the ground, a wooden barrel provides the only cover, and a reward poster on the wall reminds you exactly what kind of trouble the outlaw hero is always riding through. Promising "Duel to a Finish!" and "Beware the Gunman!" with interior work by Dick Ayers, this ten-cent package delivers the fast-draw Western action that made Kid Colt one of the era's most entertaining frontier titles.
