Description

I've read that Bat Lash is rumoured to have been a success in Europe when it was published in the early 70's. Well, I don't know for sure, but what I can tell is that, in France, it had the distinction of being published in its very own book, even if it was one of these black & white pocket-sized anthologies!...

It doesn't distract from the fact that it was a fantastic strip, mixing western, adventure, romance and humour to great effect! And it took no less an artist than Nick Cardy to give it life so well...

I was fortunate enough to have an opportunity to get a Bat Lash page. To me, this one is a typical example of the series, with action and burlesque blending effortlessly.

I even think the ageing of the page adds some charm to the art! And it even has the added bonus of being signed by all 4 of its creators: Nick Cardy, of course, but also Sergio Aragones, Denny O'Neil and Carmine Infantino!

I like how he uses caricature and realism to help delineate the mix of comedy and action, not to mention how he gives the horse an expression of astonishment in anticipation of the bath to come in the last panel. Classic stuff.
