Bat Masterson #9

In "The Mark of Guilt," Bat Masterson finds himself entangled in a mystery that begins with a cryptic clue hidden in the very design of a Dell comic cover—specifically, a torn strip bearing the title and the new Dell seal. With no writer or artist credited beyond the typeset lettering, the story unfolds through a stark, deliberate presentation that underscores its old-western tension. The cover by an unknown artist complements the tale’s enigmatic tone, hinting at secrets buried in plain sight.
