The Mighty Marvel Western #17

This 1972 Marvel anthology brings together three of the West's finest gunslingers — the Rawhide Kid, Kid Colt, and the Two-Gun Kid — with small header figures of all three across the top banner setting the stage for frontier action. The main cover scene, drawn and inked by John Severin, thrusts the red-haired Rawhide Kid front and center, guns blazing as he takes on a room full of rough opponents, with speech balloons declaring a range war is exactly what they're going to get. Headlined by the story "Ambush at Blacksnake Mesa," this issue delivers the kind of punchy Western drama that made Marvel's cowboy titles a staple of the era.
