| If you ignore the cringeworthy racism (of its time) that portrays Native Americans as savages, these are pretty decent adventure stories with high quality art - a reminder that mainstream comics once provided a wider range of genres than they do at present.
I particularly enjoyed One-Man Posse, with its cross-genre ambience |

| @Andrew999 - I think it has more to do with the bad approach of not broadening one’s horizons far enough and just sufficing with writing and drawing up people of a certain background like Native Americans in just one way all the time. I’ve understood enough that the white man is just as capable of being savage as any other human being is, and just as much as the white man can be savage, but also civilized, so can any other human being. |
