Product Description:
A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust, and a hearty Hi-Yo Silver
The Lone Ranger rides again! For nearly four decades, cartoonist Tom Gill brought to life the daring adventures of the Lone Ranger and his faithful sidekick Tonto. In his own words, Gill describes his remarkable life as a self-taught cartoonist who went on to draw some of the most famous comic books in American history.
