I love reading and collecting comics and have since the 1970s. Recently, I was in a comics shop and bought an old western Dell comic called "Idaho" for $1.00 that didn't have a cover on it. It was from 1963. I loved the main character, a cowboy named Idaho, and his older sidekick named Frazzle. Together they would ride the west searching for adventure, and winding up helping people in need. I managed to find issues to the entire 8 issue run, and enjoyed them all. I was disappointed when I learned that no other comics company picked up the character, but it will always be one of my favorite western comics.
Dive into the wild west with the Dell Comics IDAHO series, featuring the adventures of Frazzle and Idaho. This full run set includes issues #1-8 from the years 1963-1965, all featuring beautifully painted covers (except issue 8, which was hand drawn) that capture the essence of the western genre.
This is a rare out of print limited series and features the entire run! They contain one continuous story in each issue, broken into chapters. It's excellent storytelling, and they are great westerns! It's a shame that no comic company picked up the characters after this run.
