Platinum .44

Damon Threet’s Platinum .44 is a self-contained, single-issue Western comic from Burcham Studio, launched in 1991. Written and illustrated entirely by Threet, the story centers on a mysterious gunslinger whose iconic weapon—the titular platinum .44—carries a weighty past. This debut marks the beginning of a series that, while brief in initial output, stakes its claim as a creator-driven, independent take on the classic frontier mythos.
