When the star of the comic you're guest-starring in gives you the cover spot...
...you know you've got a tale that's something special!
Penciled by co-creator Dick Ayers and inked by Ernie Bache, this never-reprinted (in color) tale from Magazine Enterprises' Bobby Benson's B-Bar-B Riders #15 (1952) was the last of a three-issue run as a secondary feature to boost sales on the title.
In fact, they even tried adding horror elements to the lead feature...
...which wasn't very successful!
This was while the Ghost Rider was appearing both in his own comic and the anthology title Best of the West which also featured the Durango Kid, Tim Holt/RedMask, and Straight Arrow, all of whom had their own books!
Trivia: The B-Bar-B Riders comic was based on a Mutual Network radio series that ran from 1948 to 1955.
