Outlaws of the West #18 - Steve Ditko art

Outlaws of the West #18
Outlaws of the West v1 #18, 1959 Steve Ditko's unique approach sometimes seems ill-suited for the western genre. In this case, a near absence of backgrounds and details flatten the picture plane. His elongated faces and figures are well drawn, but the lack of depth and shading border on the monotonous. The graphic quality of his work may explain why his contributions to western comics are so few. One notable exception is his outstanding cover for Cheyenne Kid #10. Other artists in this golden age western comic include Pete Morisi. This is 1 of 1 Outlaws of the West issues by Ditko.
