Two-Gun Kid #5
In "The Rider of the Owlhoot Trail!", the Two-Gun Kid rides into a mystery steeped in danger and deception, tracking a shadowy outlaw across the dusty trails of the Old West. Written by Stan Lee and illustrated with bold, dynamic flair by Syd Shores (pencils) and Vince Alascia (inks), this 1948 issue delivers classic Western action with a touch of psychological intrigue, all while maintaining the era’s careful tone—evidenced by the inclusion of Dr. Jean Thompson as editorial consultant, ensuring the story stayed in line with the company’s standards.
