Blaze of Glory

(Marvel, 2000)
™ and © 2000 Marvel Characters, Inc.

Wonderment, Montana, where Whites, Indians, and freed Blacks live together peacefully, has been attacked and isolated by hooded outlaws called Nightriders. In desperation, the townspeople recruit several gunfighters to their cause. Despite their reputation as ruthless outlaws, the Rawhide Kid, Kid Colt, the Two-Gun Kid, and the Outlaw Kid do not hesitate to come to the beleaguered town’s aid.

Besides the seemingly endless forces of the Nightriders, the four gunslingers must also deal with a bounty hunter known as Gunhawk, and a Pinkerton agent named Caleb Hammer. Luckily, they have allies of their own. The local Nez Perce have summoned their champion, Red Wolf, and the mysterious Ghost Rider has also placed the townspeople under his protection.

Subtitled the “Last Ride of the Western Heroes,” this dark, grim tale by John Ostrander and Leonardo Manco might well be the final chapter for some of Marvel’s most popular Western characters.
