Roy Rogers Comics #78

This 1954 Dell publication features a striking photo cover of Roy Rogers himself — dressed in a fringed red-and-plaid Western shirt with a neckerchief, holding a pistol while seated in a doorway alongside a loyal German Shepherd at his boots. At 52 pages, it offers a generous read for any Western fan, with interior work by the talented team of writer Gaylord Du Bois, artist John Buscema, and inker Mario Acquaviva bringing "Roy Rogers King of the Cowboys and the Red Whirlwind" to life. A fine snapshot of mid-1950s Western comics at their most earnest and adventurous.
