Horwitz! Incredibly beautiful! Like beating the Atlas covers like a toy drum, beautiful. And don't get me wrong, I'm a Syd Shores fan, big time. But this work...it doesn't look like Shores - do you know who drew this? Looks kinda like an Ajax-Farrell studio.

 

And here I was, concerned that your collection was in hiatus, as it were. HA!

 

and nice Fiction house pickup. Bedrock's got the shiznit, that's for sure, man.

Thanks Doc and Boot.

I have no idea who drew the cover but there are some other nice ones in the run that have a resemblance to some of the Lone Rider issues (Ajax-Farrell). Also the Lone Rider type "draping mask".

Well, with a synopsis like this who wouldn't like the Kit West stories!

 

"Kit West solves the mystery of a series of murders of women at Fort Gresham. An orangutan belonging to Sailor Ben is exposed as the culprit. Sailor Ben never had romantic success because "women hate him because he's so ugly," so he took out his anger on young women at the fort" as per the GCD.

 

:applause: on the book.

Good synopsis by GCD. That site's a comic collectors gold mine.
