American Comics Update: The Midas Collection: 2 early Western Comics
*Western: Also from the Midas Collection this week, two early issues of Western Comics, one of DC’s most prominent western titles from the late 1940s to the early 1960s. Star of the show was the Wyoming Kid, who we think appeared in every issue; but there were lots of other recurring cowboys along the way, including Vigilante in #3 and Nighthawk in #8, the two issues on offer here. Both in pretty nice nick for comics from the 194os.
