About the series

In the 1950s, Marvel (then Atlas Comics) brought the frontier to life with Wild Western, a 55-issue series that ran from 1948 to 1957. Anchored by the gritty, action-packed art of Jack Keller, Al Hartley, and Russ Heath, and scripts from Joe Gill, Leon Lazarus, and Robert Bernstein, the title was a staple of the company's Western line. It matters as a snapshot of the genre's peak in comics, showcasing the raw, fast-drawing tales that defined the era.
