True Western

A short-lived but evocative entry from Modern Magazines, True Western (1957) ran for just three issues, offering a snapshot of mid-century comic book publishing's interest in authentic, non-fiction frontier tales. The series is primarily remembered for its striking painted covers by the legendary Norman Saunders, which promised gritty, dramatic stories of the Old West. While brief, it stands as a curious artifact of the era's attempt to blend educational content with the popular Western genre.
