Ringo Kid #8

Atlas Comics delivered sharp, sun-scorched Western thrills with Ringo Kid #8, cover-dated October 1955. Joe Maneely's cover artwork puts the fearless Ringo front and center on a dusty frontier street, revolver drawn and yellow-gloved hands steady, while a crowd of menacing renegades closes in around him — proof positive that his is "the name that makes killers tremble." Inside, John Severin's linework brings the story "Black Sunset" to life, promising the kind of gritty frontier action that made Atlas Westerns a reliable ten-cent thrill in 1955.
