They do use the colors well on those ME comics, in spite of the fact that the Ghost Rider is in black white. damonwad, porcupine48 and Tri-Color Brian 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Pontoon Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Got this a few weeks back. I've never thought much about Chuck Miller but for some reason his work in this book really grabs me. porcupine48 and ComicConnoisseur 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superman used to hangout with Hoppy back in the late forties or early fifties. You can also find the Shadow and GI Joe in the movie (Victor Jory and Robert Mitchum).

I probably have more Lone Ranger comics than any other western. Maybe more than Superman but about the same as Batman.

damonwad Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 One of the things I like about the Lone Ranger comics are the Young Hawk back up stories that ran from issue #11 through #145 (final issue). Gaylord Du Bois wrote them through issue #119 (per GCD). The whole run is basically a continuous story of two 16th century Mandan Indians, Young Hawk and Little Buck, traveling across North America from southern Mexico, all over the U.S. and to the Yukon, looking for adventure. Most of the adventures are related to the other Indian tribes and civilizations they meet along the way. My guess is they were about 16 and 12 years old when they started and added about 5 or 6 years by the end. Du Bois also wrote Brothers of the Spear that came out around 2 1/2 years after LR #11 and the early Turok's a few years after that. I thought that Lone Ranger #11 was the beginning of Young Hawk until a few years ago when I saw "Young Hawk" written on the bottom of the cover of New Funnies #65. I assumed it was just a different character until checking GCD and found out it was the same. A little more GCD searching showed Young Hawk had an odd publishing history. It starts in New Funnies #65-67 (June -September 1942) ,then pops up in Red Ryder #33 (April 1946) before the long run begins in Lone Ranger #11 (May 1949). Here are scans from some of the early issues and the splash page from the final story. New Funnies #65 and New Funnies #67: Red Ryder #33 and Lone Ranger #11: Lone Ranger #145: Scrooge and PopKulture 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker made some nice action covers and he was really good at drawing horses. Edited August 26, 2019 by BB-Gun szav 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
