The Lone Rider

A long-running Australian comic from Horwitz Publications, The Lone Rider spanned 33 issues from 1950 onward, a fixture of the postwar boom in local genre comics. The series is most visually defined by the work of artists Maurice Bramley and Reed Crandall, whose gritty, dynamic illustrations anchored the title's Western adventures. Though its publication history is sparse on details, the series stands as a durable example of mid-century Australian pulp comics, sustained by its commitment to straightforward frontier storytelling.
