Comic StorySilver City Showdown (6 pages)
SynopsisShotgun Grady and his gun-slingers have taken over Silver City, and when they kill one of Devlin's friends, the former marshal returns.
CreditsPencils: Anthony Cataldo | Inks: Anthony Cataldo
ContentGenre: Western-frontier | Characters: Slim Devilin (Marshal); Shotgun Brady (killer); Charlie Devers Pete Gregor
NotesCataldo is recognised by his faces and most for the movement of figures, one arm lifted and standing like clumsy puppets. Also to notice is the trousers in front view, with belt high up, making the belly hanging low and legs too short. This is particularly evident in this story. JVJ has Cataldo plus "??", and the only reason for that must be some rapid inking on page 3 and 4, but the figures and faces are the same, and many of the folds in shirts and trousers too.
