Ringo Kid #4

This February 1955 Atlas Western delivers exactly what its tagline promises — "Western Thrills and Cowboy Action!" — with Joe Maneely's cover placing the bare-chested Ringo Kid at the center of a chaotic shootout, guns blazing on all sides as a gunman fires point-blank at him from the right and a fallen figure scrambles at his feet. The cover copy teases that "Death Waits for the Ringo Kid in the Stockade," and with Maneely's confident linework capturing every muzzle flash and desperate grimace, it's easy to see why "Ringo!! The Name That Makes Killers Tremble!" — this is frontier adventure drawn with real punch.
