Wally Wood Draws Crime Stories For Trojan Publishing, On Auction Today
Comics icon Wally Wood draws some western crime stories for Trojan Publishing and you can own them at Heritage Auctions today.
Wally Wood is your cool uncle's favorite comic artist, one of the pillars of the medium. He could draw anything, and boy, could his art tell a story. I was introduced to his work through podcasts, as I broke free of the superhero trap and expanded my comic reading palate out of high school. Some of his work can be found in Western Crime Busters, and today at Heritage Auctions you can get a. three-book lot from that series containing issues #7-9. Wally Wood produced art for the interiors of #7 and #9. The best part of this lot is the price. Right now, you can get all three issues for $6. Not bad for some stories from one of the greats. Check out the lot below.
