| Cowboy Sahib (a Bengal Tiger-riding cowboy) is such a bizarre concept that it ranks right up there with Don Simpson's Phantom Jungle Girl. Waitaminnit... did they just use the FRONT COVER of a comic book as a "Coming Soon" house ad page??? It must be... because Cowboy Sahib isn't even IN this issue. |

| Notes | Moritz is credited on various features for ACG by Jerry Bails' Who's Who. He had most of the Injun Jones stories in Blazing West. He is not to be mistaken by his very special lines inside the ears, and faces in close up with many thin inklines. Also his horses are special, with small gaping heads and many thin inklines on them too. |

| Notes | Originally credited "Lee Elias ?", but it is the artist that made most of the Bantam stories, Leonard Starr. He is the only one credited on Bantam Buckaroo by Jerry Bails' Who's Who. The artwork match his signed story in Blazing West #18, faces, hats and the hands with gloves. Elias has more rounded faces and lips, much like Milton Caniff or Frank Robbins. |
