    Cover by Stan Campbell. Stories and art by Stan Campbell and Walter Gibson. The fourth of five titles for the comic that was previously Yellowjacket Comics, Jack in the Box, and Cowboy Western. An odd title that features a mashup of Western and science-fiction stories. Spurs Jackson and his "Space Vigilantes" fly an untested rocket to Venus after Venusian spies steal the A-bomb, in one of two Spurs Jackson stories written by Walter Gibson, legendary author of The Shadow's pulp adventures. Native hero Strong Bow investigates when a modern-day convoy is apparently attacked by Civil War cavalry on horseback. Hank Roper tracks the Jinx of Black Ridge Ranch after "Hardluck Cady" has his roulette winnings stolen by bandits. Fun cowboys-vs.-aliens cover by Stan Campbell. Plus a black-and-white preview page on the inside cover (also by Campbell) that's almost better than the comics stories it describes. Spurs Jackson: The Green Men of Venus; Jinx of Black Ridge Ranch; The Red Men from Mars; Spurs Jackson: Danger Below; Strong Bow: The Phantom HighJackers. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
