Marvel Fanfare #49


Marvel Fanfare (1982-1992) #49

This issue is a Western themed Fanfare. First Nick Fury and Dum Dum Dugan must travel back to the Old West in order to search for a missing Doctor Strange. They later discover that their very presence may have altered the time-line unless they can prevent an Indian tribe from raising an army of the dead against the white man.


  This is more of a SHIELD tale than a Doc Strange adventure. Sure, there is a taste of the super-natural in this story. But, Fury and Dugan are the real stars of this issue and there’s lots of shoot ’em up action.


 Then there’s a Two-Gun Kid tale. It starts off really good, but, the Kid’s got a secret identity more flimsy than a sheet of wet paper. How come nobody sees through it and put 2 & 2 together when Lawyer Matt disappears and the Two-Gun Kid arrives riding Matt’s horse!?!

One great tale, one adventure with more holes that Swiss cheese.

Worth Consuming.

Rating: 7 out of 10 stars.
