Buffalo Bill Jr.

In this short-lived Dell series from the late 1950s, young cowboy Buffalo Bill Jr. rides the range with a mix of Western adventure and youthful grit, scripted primarily by Paul S. Newman and Gaylord Du Bois. Artists Mike Sekowsky and Bob Fujitani brought the dusty trails and frontier action to life across seven issues, offering a wholesome, kid-friendly take on the TV-inspired Western craze of the era. Though brief, it stands as a snapshot of mid-century comics’ embrace of television tie-ins and the enduring appeal of the Old West for younger readers.
