The Lone Ranger #13

The masked man himself takes center stage on this July 1949 Dell issue, the Lone Ranger pressed against a wooden wall with an arrow pinning his hat — hand raised, pistol at the ready, cool under unmistakable pressure. Morris Gollub's cover art delivers a tense, beautifully rendered moment that pulls you straight into the Wild West action waiting inside. With a story titled "The Lone Ranger and The Killer Hood Gang," written by Gaylord Du Bois with art by Tom Hickey, this one promises exactly the kind of frontier justice fans of the era lived for.
