Wyatt Earp v2 #6 - Russ Manning art


Wyatt Earp v2 #6, 1959 - Based on the 1950s television show, Russ Manning draws the likeness of actor Hugh O' Brien fairly competently. Given that most Dell artists had difficulty accomplishing this on a number of tv-related series, this was no small feat. Manning once again delivers two well-paced and streamlined stories and maintain his standard for the series. In the opening tale, Wyatt Earp and his deputy are ambushed within a landscape of giant boulders. The rotund shapes make the panels more graphic and provide a fresh change of scenery. The details of Manning's environments continue to make this series a notable effort. This is number 6 of 13 Wyatt Earp issues with Manning art and/or covers. See today's posts or more Manning or Wyatt Earp issues. See also this blog's Russ Manning checklist.
