Colt 45

In the late 1970s, Portugal Press published Colt 45, a 16-issue comic series that ran from 1977 to 1979, defined by the richly painted artwork of Carlos Alberto. This Western-themed title brought a distinctive visual flair to the genre, with Alberto's lush, atmospheric covers and interiors setting it apart from the line art typical of the era. A notable entry in Portuguese comics, Colt 45 showcases the country's vibrant, if often overlooked, contribution to the international Western comic tradition.
