The Rawhide Kid #54

Blazing six-guns and frontier grit are on full display in this October 1966 Marvel Western, as the cover by Larry Lieber puts the Rawhide Kid front and center — red-haired, blue-clad, and diving through a hail of gunfire with both pistols blazing while enemies close in from all sides on a dusty main street. The tagline promises a vendetta pushed to its absolute limit: "They had sworn to get revenge… or die trying!" It's a tightly composed, kinetic cover that captures everything compelling about Marvel's Silver Age Westerns in a single breathless image.
