ITG's ABCs: Weird Western Tales #48-49 (Oct.-Nov. 1978)
from ITG · host Mark Sweeney
On this episode, I'm debuting a new feature called ITG's ABCs (which is short for Anthology & Back-up Comics Stories). On ABCs, I'll be recapping the short tales (typically 8 pages in length) found in titles like World's Finest & Adventure Comics or in the back of comics like Unknown Soldier or (in this case) Weird Western Tales. I've been looking forward to this feature, as it will allow me to broaden the number of characters and types of stories I'll be able to cover on this podcast. First up, getting the ABCs treatment, is DC's western character Cinammon! This determined firebrand made only 2 lead feature appearances (both covered here) before fading into obscurity at the dawn of the 1980s. If a wild western adventure is up your alley, and you think 9 pages of story is just too much, I invite you to: Download this episode HERE!
