This message is just for folks who have a ton of old Marvel comic books…
I got a call today from Joe Sinnott…and if you have a ton of old Marvel comic books, you sure know who that is. Joe is trying to clean up his record book which lists everything he's done and when he did it. I helped him solve a couple of mysteries but I was stumped on two, both involving Marvel western comics from around 1960.
Joe's records say he inked a short Jack Kirby story called "The Man From Fargo" which appeared in Kid Colt, Outlaw #90. The Grand Comic Book Database (a wonderful thing but not without occasional errors) lists that story in that issue as being pencilled and inked by Jack Keller. I don't have that issue. Can someone who does check it and see if it's Keller or Kirby/Sinnott?
Also, Joe's notes say he inked a short Kirby story called "Beware the Gun Wizard" but he has no idea where it appeared. He did his work on it October 27-30 of 1959 so I'm guessing the earliest it might have been printed would have been in an issue cover-dated March or more likely April of '60. Anyone have any idea where it ran? Thanks!
