| Comic Story | Death on the Buffalo Trail! / Durango Kid (7 pages) |
| Genre | Western-frontier |
| Characters | The Durango Kid |
| Pencils | Joe Certa |
| Inks | Joe Certa |
| Notes | Joe Certa, John Belfi and Fred Guardineer are credited with Durango Kid stories in Jerry Bails' Who's Who. This is Certa. Guardineer (Durango Kid #20) has very small eyes on his horses and faces, and gun holsters usually without any straps across, where Certa and Belfi (Best of the West #4) has one or two. Belfi often assisted Certa in inking, but if you notice the hairline under the hat of Durango, it is a broad V-shape, when Belfi in #4 has more waves. So this must be inked by Certa.
