Monte Hale - Pioneer Marshal

Though no confirmed issues of Monte Hale - Pioneer Marshal ever saw print, this planned Western title from Export Publishing remains a curiosity among collectors of unproduced comics. Intended to capitalize on the popularity of B-movie cowboy Monte Hale, the series would have followed his adventures as a frontier lawman—a concept that never made it past the drawing board. Its non-existence is itself a footnote in the history of Western comics, a genre that saw countless hopefuls announced but few actually released.
