Roy Rogers and Trigger #133 - Russ Manning art

Roy Rogers and Trigger #133, 1958 - In this Dale Evans back-up tale, a one-room schoolhouse is the point of interest for a couple of shady-looking men. Russ Manning draws yet another fine effort, making sure his artwork never overwhelms the storytelling. Just the right amount of detail is used, enough to establish the characters and western settings. Speaking of shady, page three panel three (see interior page shown above) is an especially well executed scene viewed from above. This is number 4 of 15 Roy Rogers and Trigger issues with Manning art and/or covers. See today's posts or more Manning or Roy Rogers issues. See also this blog's Russ Manning checklist.
