A Billy the Kid Alphabet

A charmingly offbeat one-shot from 2025, A Billy the Kid Alphabet finds celebrated cartoonist Rick Geary applying his signature, meticulously crosshatched style to the Old West's most infamous outlaw. Rather than a straightforward biography, Geary structures the tale as an ABC primer, using each letter to highlight a person, place, or artifact from Billy the Kid's life and legend. It's a playful yet historically grounded experiment from a master of the graphic narrative, offering a unique entry point into a familiar story.
