The Gunfighters

In the early 1960s, I. W. Publishing’s Super Comics line brought the Old West to newsstands with The Gunfighters, a five-issue series that ran from 1963 to 1964. Written primarily by Gardner Fox and Ruth Roche, with art from Don Heck, Everett Raymond Kinstler, and Fred Meagher, the series followed the adventures of Jim Larrimore and the mysterious Rider across dusty frontier towns. A crisp, no-frills Western comic, it stands as a modest but solid entry from the era, showcasing reliable talent in a genre that was still riding high before the superhero boom.
