C’mon everybody, sing along: “Davy…Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier!” No one, not even Walt Disney could have anticipated the enormous success of his biographical mini-series of the legendary hero of Davy Crockett. If he had, he probably would have put out Davy Crockett to the movie theaters first and television after, instead of the other way round. He probably wouldn’t have killed Davy off in the Alamo on the first mini-series either, if there were a hope of bringing him back. As it stands, the success of Davy spawned a bunch of products including this comic book.
