Johnny Thunder All-Star Western

As the adventures of Johnny Thunder in the west started to wind down (and Johnny got a change from brown western duds to brighter red and blue), readers got an origin for Johnny Thunder (teacher John Tane, who was the son of a sheriff and a school teacher, whose mother made him promise never to use guns).  So, John came up with the alter ego Johnny Thunder, which allowed him to defend Mesa City, Arizona from all sorts of nefarious menaces, including Madame .44 (Jeanne Walker) who took her own secret identity to take from the rich and give to the needy (and, as later established, the two found out each others secrets, and married), all with art by Gil Kane, who sometimes inked himself, or was inked by Joe Giella or Russ Heath! The stories started being by Robert Kanigher, then were by Gardner Fox.
