Wanted Dead or Alive

An obscure three-issue series from Magazine Management, the Australian publisher best known for its black-and-white war and western comics, Wanted Dead or Alive ran from 1960 onward, though its brief run suggests a short-lived experiment in the frontier genre. The title likely follows the exploits of a lone gunslinger or bounty hunter, a staple of the western comics that filled the newsstands of the era. While no major creator is explicitly tied to it, the series stands as a modest artifact of the Australian comic boom, reflecting the local appetite for rugged, action-driven storytelling. Its rarity and brevity make it a curious footnote for collectors of Antipodean comics history.
