A MARVEL GRAPHIC NOVEL
By Doug Wildey (Marvel)
ISBN: 0-87135-656-2
Moving to a more luscious and painterly colour palette, Doug Wildey transferred his iconic lone rider from the wilderness to the very borders of the creeping Civilisation he so patently abhorred in this sequel to his original tale of Bad Man Gone Good.
Now finally pardoned by President Grant, Rio is invited to become sheriff of Limestone City, a burgeoning metropolis less than 100 miles from Kansas City yet somehow a town with no crime! Whist considering the offer, he finds old friends already living there; Frank and Jesse James and their families are respectable if incognito citizens of the progressive paradise.
But when a botched bank raid exposes the retired outlaws, human nature and petty spite lead to disastrous chaos and a spiral of bloody tragedy…
Gripping, authentic, and satisfyingly mythic, these tales from a master of his subject and his craft are some of the best western comics America has ever produced.
