Two Gun Kid #96

The Concho Gang means deadly business in this 1971 Marvel Western, and the cover by Herb Trimpe makes that unmistakably clear — a dynamite blast erupts beneath a rearing white horse as the Two-Gun Kid struggles to stay mounted, while armed outlaws close in around him with taunting words about the price of crossing the "Concho Boys." Packed into one issue billed as "a complete movie length thriller," "Here Come the Conchos" promises a full-length showdown between Marvel's masked gunfighter and a ruthless gang willing to use explosives to spring an ambush. At fifteen cents, this is a lean, action-charged slice of Marvel's Western line at its most energetic.
