Six-Gun Heroes #30

Six-Gun Heroes #30 brings together four beloved cowboy stars — Rocky Lane, Lash LaRue, Tex Ritter, and Tom Mix — whose portrait headshots line the top of this lively 1954 Charlton cover penciled by Dick Giordano and inked by Vince Alascia. Below them, the action heats up as a sheriff-badged cowboy grapples on the ground with a masked, red-shirted villain who brandishes a knife, horses rearing in the dusty chaos around them. With the promise of "your favorite cowboys in smashing action thrillers," this ten-cent issue delivers the rugged Western excitement that made the series a staple of the era.
