Lash La Rue Western #54

Charlton's Lash La Rue Western #54 puts the "King of the Bullwhip" right in the thick of a tense confrontation, with the black-clad Lash looming over a cornered man in yellow, whip coiled in one hand and pistol drawn in the other as a bottle flies through the air — all the rough-and-tumble energy of a 1955 frontier brawl captured in Stan Campbell's sharp pencils and inks. The tagline "The Tuxton Valley Hoax!" hints at deception and danger lurking beneath the surface of this ten-cent Western gem. Whether you're a longtime fan of the genre or just discovering Charlton's cowboy comics, this cover alone makes a compelling case for picking it up.
