Straight Arrow #35

Fred Meagher's cover captures a genuinely tense moment: Straight Arrow, adorned in striking red-and-blue regalia and a feathered headdress, clings to his rearing golden horse amid a driving rainstorm, bow drawn as arrows streak through the air around him. The rugged mesa landscape and churning stream below underscore just how precarious his situation is. With a story titled "Outlaw Death-Warrant!" waiting inside, this 1954 Magazine Enterprises issue promises the kind of high-stakes Western action that made Straight Arrow such a compelling read.
