SPACE WESTERN "Spurs Jackson and His Space Vigilantes Battle the Red Menace Beyond the Moon"

Didn't think we could do a Western-themed blog post that related to travel to the Moon?
Then you don't know about Charlton's 1950s title, Space Western Comics, which we covered HERE!
So, in tribute to the 50th Anniversary of Apollo 11 and the first landing of men on the Moon, we're re-presenting this funky tale for your enjoyment!
And, of course, because it was the 1950s...there had to be Communists lurking about...
This seldom-reprinted (once in b/w in 1992) tale from Charlton's Space Western Comics #43 (1953) was written by Walter (The Shadow) Gibson and illustrated by Stan Campbell.
