Roy Rogers and Trigger #97

This January 1956 Dell issue puts the King of the Cowboys front and center in a vivid photo cover, with Roy Rogers astride the palomino Trigger, rifle in hand and a coil of rope at the ready — every inch the alert, capable westerner fans adored. The open rangeland stretching out behind them perfectly sets the mood for the interior tale, "Two Angry Men," brought to life by the skilled team of writer Gaylord Du Bois, artist John Buscema, and inker Mario Acquaviva. A fine ten-cent package of western adventure that captures exactly what made this long-running Dell series such a reliable Saturday afternoon favorite.
