Weird Western Tales #2
In "First Among Men," Jesse James, Billy the Kid, and John Wesley Harding—legendary outlaws of the Old West—find themselves caught in a deadly shootout that ends in their demise. But the truth behind their violent end reveals a chilling twist: they are not real historical figures, but lifelike clones in a high-tech, violent theme park designed for thrill-seeking visitors. Written by Joe Pruett and brought to life with striking art by Marcelo Frusin, this issue blends Western grit with sci-fi unease, all under the sharp, atmospheric cover by Dave Taylor.
