Roy Rogers

Roy Rogers galloped onto the Australian newsstands with this Horwitz-published series, a 38-issue run that brought the silver screen's King of the Cowboys to the comics page from 1954 to 1957. Anchored by the clean, dynamic artwork of Maurice Bramley and Al Micale (alongside the mysterious "R. S"), these issues captured the spirit of the post-war Western craze, offering young readers a reliable dose of frontier adventure starring the singing cowboy and his faithful horse, Trigger. While a licensed tie-in, the series stands as a robust piece of Australian comic-book history, showcasing local talent at work on an internationally beloved property.
