Gene Autry comics was first published by Fawcett in 1941, and Dell picked it up after 10 issues and ran 121 issues. Gene Autry#1 (Fawcett) is the most highly valued Western comic, selling at $7,000.00+ in near mint condition if one could find one for sale. After Gene Autry #1, Bob Overstreet's Comic Book Price Guide lists Hopalong Cassidy #1 as the second most valuable of all western comics. This one is about just plain ole outlaws pretending to be pirates.
