365 Days of Books of Interest: Day #175: Marvel 1872

I'm always looking for something different to read and I figured 1872 fit the bill. I don't read (or watch) a lot of westerns but I do like the idea of the Avengers being featured in one. This is certainly one way to get me to read a western.



Book: Marvel 1872 (issues #1-4) by Gerry Duggan with illustrations by Nicole Virella

Also included: Avengers (1963) #80 and Marvel Comics Presents (1988) #170 (Red Wolf story).

Description:

REAL HEROES DIE WITH THEIR BOOTS ON.

Sheriff Steve Rogers faces corruption and fear in the boom town of Timely. The only thing Anthony Stark seems capable of is pulling a cork, so can he pull Rogers' fat from the fire? But...a stranger comes to town that will change Timely forever...for anyone left standing, that is.
