Straight Arrow #24

Straight Arrow — billed as "The Original Indian Hero of Radio Fame!" — brings his daring to the comics page in this April–May 1952 issue from Magazine Enterprises. Fred Meagher's cover captures a heart-stopping moment: Straight Arrow grips a rope mid-air, hauling a bound figure to safety while a thundering buffalo stampede surges around them on all sides. It's the kind of visceral, kinetic image that makes this ten-cent adventure feel like it earns every penny.
