Gunfighters was another Western title that Charlton brought back for reasons unknown in the late 70s, but it managed to last for 33 reprint-filled issues...Here's Gunfighters 61, cover-date July 1980...Excellent cover by Rocke Mastroserio had bn used in this title in 1967 and wld be used again in 1984...Charlton got its money's worth...Stories are all reprints from 1956-61...Great Kid Montana story with Pete Morisi art, but they recolored his distinctive gray hair as brown...The Kid's planning to retire until fate intervenes...Also a nice 2-page Wyatt Earp story from Morisi...Wild Bill & Jingles (Jingles! Because a hero needs a chubby sidekick) story with Maurice Whitman art, Lash Larue with Charles Nicholas art and Masked Raider with Mastroserio art all are just OK...This one's worth picking up on the cheap for that swell cover and those two Morisi stories...
