The Deputy

The Deputy (1960–present) is a four-issue Western comic series from Australia's Magazine Management, a publisher known for its prolific output of genre comics. The series follows a frontier lawman, likely the titular deputy, through adventures typical of the era's cowboy storytelling. While creator credits are sparse, the series stands as a modest but evocative artifact of Australian comics' mid-century boom, offering a compact, self-contained glimpse into the country's pulp Western tradition.
