El Jinete del Diablo

In the aftermath of World War II, Editorial Lerso launched this 14-issue Spanish comic series following a mysterious, skull-masked rider who dispenses justice in the American West. El Jinete del Diablo blended the pulp Western genre with a supernatural edge, its dark, shadowy art style reflecting the grim tone of the era. Though short-lived, the series stands as a distinctive artifact of mid-1940s Spanish comics, showcasing the country's appetite for brooding, vigilante heroes before the medium's post-war transformation.
