    Stories and art by Paul Parker and Bill Walton. Western tales both true and fictional, which, like Hillman's crime comics, are often told from the outlaw's point of view. This issue features a triad of biographies of famous Western oddballs: The strange true story of San Francisco eccentric Norton, who proclaimed himself Norton I, the Emperor of the United States. Sideshow performer Leon Borchardt, aka "Oofty Goofty," performed odd feats and was seemingly immune to pain. Folk hero Windwagon Thomas fitted a wagon with a sail to ride the winds across the flat prairies of Kansas. Siege; The Mad Murdocks; Emperor of the United States; Oofty-Goofty; An Even Split; The Mescalero Indians; The Sign in the Sky; Windwagon Thomas; Warwhoop. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
