Black Rider no. 1 (Sep 1957) cover by John Severin. The only issue of this series, it has 3 Jack Kirby stories featuring the title character. A 2nd issue was prepared, but never published. Its stories would appear in various anthology comics like Gunsmoke Western. Beautiful cover #WesternComicsMonth
