A MOONSTONE WILD WEST EVENT!
Three western LEGENDS in three complete tales that will thrill Wild West fans everywhere!
Wyatt Earp is the town’s new Marshall, and it doesn’t take him long to get on the bad side of brutal cowboys used to doing things the outlaw way…and now only Doc Holliday and the Masterson brothers stand between Wyatt and a marker on his head!
Belle Starr recounts her life’s story. From debutante to debaucher, she’s a woman driven to the outlaw life by too much hunger and too many bad men. Moving from place to place, a life full of wandering and adventure, she hints at her most personal demon…and how she was forced to meet her past and either fight it or die trying!
The Cisco Kid is chasing the Brujera on a road that leads straight into a trap set by a Texas Ranger and his cunning Indian partner. But the road to fire and brimstone is full of distractions, from a mysterious and alluring woman whose motives are shrouded in dreams, to the father of his murdered girlfriend--a powerful Shaman who will step from the fires of the abyss to stake his own claim on Cisco’s life!
On Wyatt Earp:
“As per his usual, Chuck Dixon's writing kicks some serious ass. He tells great stories wherein the characters become known to the reader through their actions as much as dialogue.” -PopThought.com
On Belle Starr:
“I expected a Bad Girl story about a hot, outlaw cowgirl; I got a touching piece about a tragic woman who tried too hard to control her life and had it all fall apart on her.”
-- ComicWorldNews.com
On Cisco Kid:
“Len has woven a story with great skill, of a character whose motivations are complex and whose soul is anything but pure.”-IndependentPropaganda.com
Incidentally, that Comic World News quote is mine from back in the day. Belle Starr really was a surprisingly great story. And Moonstone's Cisco Kid comics have always been spot on.
