American Update: The Atlas Explosion! Wild Western – Starring Black Rider, Ringo Kid, Kid Colt and more
*Western: Heading up the Western branch of our Atlas Explosion event comes one of Timely/Atlas’ earliest Western series, Wild Western (Wild West for its first two issues), an anthology title which ran from 1948 to 1957. Occasionally spotlighting one character in several stories, more often it presented a variety of features, with many of Atlas’ established Western heroes – Apache Kid, Black Rider, Gunhawk, Two-Gun Kid, Ringo Kid, Kid Colt Outlaw and more we’ve forgotten – stopping by for a spell! We have 39 of the series’ 57 issues new in stock, commencing with issue #13 and concluding with that final issue, #57. Artists involved include Colan, Berg, Maneely, Heath, Severin, Powell, Romita and Shores, to name but a few. Pictured are #14 (VG+ £34) and #21 (FN £32); for grades and prices on the others, see our online catalogue, and check in again in the near future for more from our Atlas Western Round-Up!
