The Mighty Marvel Western #45
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Riot in Jail," Rawhide Kid finds himself caught between old loyalties and a war that refuses to end, as he encounters Confederate soldiers still fighting long after the conflict should have ended. Written by Linda Fite and illustrated by Werner Roth with inks by Herb Trimpe, this 1976 Western thriller captures the tension of a nation divided—both by memory and by violence—while the cover by Ed Hannigan and Dan Adkins sets the scene with a stark, dusty showdown.
When the Rawhide Kid stops in Railtown seeking a quiet break, Sheriff Iron John McGraw quickly urges him to move on—claiming the Ladies Cookie Society has no use for him. But tensions simmer beneath the surface, and when a sudden riot erupts in jail, the sheriff’s authority is tested. With Mrs. Crawfish caught in the chaos and Cyclone the only steady presence, the Rawhide Kid finds himself drawn into a showdown where loyalty and justice are harder to untangle than a tangled rope.
In "Dixie -- or Die," the Rawhide Kid stumbles upon a desperate band of Confederate soldiers clinging to a lost cause, their loyalty to a vanished war turning them violent. With the cavalry closing in and the rails of progress under threat, the Kid must navigate a deadly clash between old hatreds and the harsh reality of a new frontier—where even a horse named Steel can’t outrun the past.
