Kid Colt Outlaw #199
In "The Revenge of Bull Barton," Kid Colt finds himself caught between justice and redemption when he thwarts a train heist by Bull Barton’s gang, earning a pardon from the governor—if he can go a full day without drawing his guns. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Jack Keller, this 1975 issue blends frontier grit with moral tension, as Colt’s promise to lay down his weapons is tested when he must reclaim his guns to save the very man who offered him freedom. The cover by Gil Kane captures the moment’s high stakes with classic flair.
