Description

Is this a squirrel purchase? No doubt, but I couldn't resist picking up this 1965 Western Terror cover by Spanish artist Carlos Prunes (1937-2017). A creature curb stomping cowboys in his lair -- sign me up.

I'd appreciate more detailed info anyone might have out there in CAFland -- cover image, plot ...? I picked this up at auction back in 2018 and the listing details were sparse.

More from his Simon & Schuster profile: Carlos Prun�s �lvarez was a Spanish comics artist. Renowned for his war and romance comics, he was a regular contributor to Valentine, drawing over 100 stories. His work was featured across Fleetway�s womens� and girls� titles from the late 1950s until the mid-1960s appearing in romance comics Roxy, Marilyn and Serenade. He also contributed to the girls comics Tammy, June and School Friend as well as drawing comics for DC Thomson�s Mandy and Diana. Outside of the UK, he was the first Spanish artist to appear in Warren�s Creepy in 1960. He died in 2017

The mix of genres is so compelling! Especially with the unknown source under lighting of the monster that may indicate it's radioactive!
