Unusual Tales - The Enemy

"Unusual Tales", a series presenting Steve Ditko's comics from 1957 to 1959 that are in the public domain.

"The Enemy" is a 7-page story from Charlton's ROCKY LANE'S BLACK JACK #24 [1958], the first issue of Ditko's brief run on the series. Pretty typical western story with a group of roughnecks chasing a kindly couple off their land, and then trying to round up the wild horses in the valley, not counting on the fury of their ebony leader Black Jack.
