About the series
Avon's 1950 one-shot King of the Bad Men of Deadwood is a brisk Western comic starring the notorious outlaw Jesse James, written by Paul S. Newman with art by John Forte. It offers a classic, pulp-style take on the Old West, framing its antihero through the lens of 1950s comic book adventure. Though a single issue, it stands as a snapshot of the era's fascination with frontier outlaws and the work of two reliable genre craftsmen.
