Marvel Premiere #54 The Coming of Caleb Hammer!

[*Bronze age fan*]

Wow! Those are nice. Any Bronze Age keys I should look out for?

 

 

I don't think there were any key Westerns in the Bronze Age. A lot of the issues released during the 70s were reprints of earlier issues. But they were still cool comics.

 

Agreed! You're probably correct in saying that no Marvel Bronze would be key issues. (I know you're not a big DC guy.)

 

DC would probably have at least two:

 

All Star Western 10- First Jonah Hex

Jonah Hex #1

 

 

Sometimes I an not clear that I am just talking about Marvel. So there are two keys.

I've never been a Western fan, but I'm a Gil Kane fan. And Kane drew a ton of great covers for these books in the Bronze Age. And they're definitely not easy to find in nice shape.

 

[divad]

Why is that? Smaller print runs? I love to pick up new kane cover ones in the best shape I can, but as you say, they are few and far between.

 

As a reader and buyer from back in the day, I believe it's the combination of low print runs and long times spent on the spinner racks (where they were pawed) and shelves (where they were mishandled), compared with the Superhero counterparts.

 

Never mind the fact that only you and I bought them . . .

 

I lost a whole tomato box of BA westerns in our flood in 2005 - box was just sitting on the floor in the garage.

You forgot Marvel Spotlight #1 - Red Wolf - Neal Adams Cover

[steveinthecity]

I'd think any complete collection of BA Marvel Westerns should include Avengers #142 & 143. Both covers by Gil Kane as well.

The 142 is a pretty bad azz western cover.

 

[*Bronze age fan*]

The 143 does not have the Blazing Western action as you like it kinda cover.

 

 

[batmiesta]

Nowhere near Bartons killer books, but I do have some.

 

 

[Ghost Town]

[MisterX]

Jonah Hex is one of my favorite BA books. The stories are can be gritty, funny, heart-breaking -- please remember, folks, that the horrible movie has nothing to do with the real Jonah Hex!

 

It's a really great run, right up until the end when it kind of goes kablooey because of editorial mischief and a little something called Crisis on Infinite Earths. The series afterward, Hex, is only so-so, but you can find the whole run for pretty cheap.

 

On to the books...

[MisterX]

Some great covers from the Weird Western era...

 

 

 

The next two books are an essential two-parter about Hex's past, and the appearce of another of his enemies, Quentin Turnbull, a man seeking revenge...

 

 

 

Finally, this one's a classic. Why? It reveals the true fate of Jonah Hex! Do old gunslingers never die? Read on...

Great books and great info folks.
