Crazy month for Marvel on Kirby reprints, with lots of early 1960s
westerns in various formats (presumably lots of overlap), the last
ESSENTIAL FF and a rather expensive complete ETERNALS hardcover. And
that CHAMPIONS collection should have a single Kirby cover, for a more
trivial entry.
MARVEL MASTERWORKS: RAWHIDE KID VOL. 1
Written by STAN LEE
Penciled by JACK KIRBY, DON HECK, DICK AYERS & PAUL REINMAN
Cover by JACK KIRBY
Saddle up, buckaroos! It's time for the Marvel Masterworks to tame the
wild, wild West with the one and only Rawhide Kid! Back before Stan
"The Man" and "King" Kirby spun stories of sensational super heroes,
they told the tale of a young man who bore two Colt six-shooters and
his mission to bring law to the American frontier. After his Uncle Ben
Bart was killed at the hands of outlaws, Johnny Bart made it his
personal mission to bring justice to the town of Rawhide.
Packed full of shootouts and showdowns, renegades and rustlers, guns
and girls galore, these Western yarns will be sure to please you in the
Mighty Marvel Manner! We guarantee you won't be able to hold on to your
ten-gallon hat when you read the tale of the Terrible Totem, the Kid's
battle against the bank robbing Bat, and the war with Wolf Waco! Lasso
