Lash La Rue Western #52

From Charlton's 1954 run of frontier adventure, this issue puts the "King of the Bullwhip" front and center — Lash La Rue in his signature all-black outfit, whip cracking as he disarms an opponent mid-struggle among the rocks and timber of the rugged West. Stan Campbell's cover art captures the kinetic energy of the confrontation with a satisfying sense of motion and grit. Paired with the story "The First Offender," it's a solid, action-packed entry in one of the era's most distinctive Western series.
