Jim Bowie

Straight out of the Platinum Age, Jim Bowie made his comics debut in 1937's More Fun Comics — making him one of the earliest frontier legends to ride onto the four-color page. This Charlton-era adventurer has kept remarkable company over the decades, sharing stories with the likes of Davy Crockett, Geronimo, and even the time-bending Kid Eternity, a testament to how naturally the Bowie legend fits alongside both historical icons and pure comics fantasy. Appearing across titles like Jim Bowie, Kid Colt Outlaw, and Classics Illustrated Special Issue, his presence in the catalog stretches an astonishing 88 years, from the earliest days of the American comics medium all the way to 2025. For collectors with a taste for frontier Americana and the deep roots of comics history, Jim Bowie is a genuinely rare find worth tracking down.
