| All the pages are here, but they are out of sequence. Nice stories but were a little confusing until I figured out that the pages were mixed up. |
|
| Maybe one of you Western fans can explain the whole Red-Mask thing to me. Was this character taken from one of Tim Holt's movies, or was it strictly the invention of M.E.? I begin to see now where Marvel got a lot of its ideas for Westerns in the Silver Age... M.E. has a virtual superhero universe of Western masked mystery men: Ghost Rider, the Durango Kid, Redmask, Black Phantom (and I probably missed some). |
