Tex Dawson, Gun-slinger v1 #1, 1973
- Outnumbered and surrounded, the hero stands defiant with smoking pistols in hand. This Jim Steranko cover illustration is well-designed, despite being confined by the title's masthead. A nice touch is the close-up of a would-be killer's hand, placed in the immediate foreground. Darker and more heavily inked hand, it adds depth and context to the scene. This issue also includes an Al Williamson reprint from Western Kid #9. Other artists in this bronze age comic include John Romita and George Tuska. This is 1 of 1 Tex Dawson issues by Steranko. /// Steranko gallery

That's amazing! I've never heard about this book never mind the Steranko cover! Some day I'd like to get a complete Steranko library. what ever happened to him anyway? Where did he go after leaving Marvel?
