Ronson Inc. #2

The second volume of Ronson Inc. arrives with a cover by Minck Oosterveer that immediately sets the mood: three armed figures — a dark-clad man in a wide-brimmed hat, a dark-haired woman in a sweeping blue dress cradling a rifle, and a lighter-clad gunslinger — stand poised against a warm, dusty backdrop. The subtitle "Goudeerlijk" ("Straight as Gold") hints at themes of honesty and frontier justice in this Dutch Western series. With writer Willem Ritstier handling the story and Oosterveer pulling triple duty on pencils, inks, and lettering, this 2011 release from the Don Lawrence Collection looks like a confident, stylish entry in the series.
