American Comics Update: The Midas Collection: Daniel Boone and Tomahawk
*Western: Finally from the Midas Collection this week, two unconventional DC Western titles, set before the time of the true Wild West that dominated most titles in this genre. The Legends of Daniel Boone is quite a rare title (we’ve never had a copy before), all eight issues in the series from 1955-57 are referred to in Overstreet as scarce. Cover and art on #1 listed here by the excellent Nick Cardy, who drew every issue. Tomahawk, set during the American War Of Independence, was a much longer lasting series (140 issues from 1950-1972) and was quite inventive for such a limited concept title. Issue #63 on offer here is from 1959.
