About the series
Based on the 1965 John Wayne film, this single-issue Dell Comics adaptation brings the Western story of four brothers reuniting for their mother’s funeral to the printed page. Artist Jack Sparling captures the rugged frontier drama as the siblings confront a corrupt town boss. A straightforward tie-in to a classic movie, it stands as a modest but faithful snapshot of mid-60s film-to-comic publishing.
