Two-Gun Kid #2

This June 1948 issue of Two-Gun Kid crackles with frontier energy as the Kid himself — dressed in black and red, pistol drawn — leaps from a rearing dark horse straight into a brawl with a cluster of armed outlaws below. Cover pencils by Syd Shores and inks by Vince Alascia bring real punch to the chaotic scene, with hats flying, a fallen cowboy on the ground, and gun-toting villains closing in from every angle. Two stories are teased on the cover — "Killers of Outlaw City!" and "Trail of Vanishing Men!" — making this a solid early installment of Marvel's frontier adventure series for any fan of vintage Western comics.
