About the series
A six-issue Marvel series from 1974–1975, Night Rider follows a Western hero whose name evokes the genre's classic lone-riding archetype. Written primarily by Gary Friedrich, Dick Ayers, and Roy Thomas, with Ayers also providing the consistent artwork, the title is a brief but distinctive entry in Marvel's 1970s Western line. It matters as a snapshot of the era's willingness to blend straightforward action with the mythic, frontier storytelling that the publisher explored alongside its superhero fare.
