Masked Raider #5

This 1956 Charlton western puts the Masked Raider front and center — blue-clad, twin six-guns drawn, his blue domino mask and white hat marking him as a hero with serious frontier style. Soaring dramatically behind him is Talon the Golden Eagle, wings fully spread against a rugged mountain backdrop, making for a striking duo that promises the "action packed adventures" the cover boldly advertises. Dick Giordano and Vince Alascia bring it all to life with clean, confident linework that captures the spirit of the Old West at its ten-cent best.
