Arizona Kid

A short-lived but visually striking Western series from Horwitz in the mid-1950s, Arizona Kid ran for nine issues and was defined by the work of writer Richard Kahn and artists Pete Morisi and Russ Heath. The series offered a straightforward, action-packed take on the genre, with Heath’s clean, dynamic art and Morisi’s gritty linework bringing the frontier to life. Though brief, it stands as a solid example of the Western comic boom of the era, showcasing the talents of two notable illustrators before their more famous later work.
