Description

Collects Rawhide Kid (2003 Max) #1-5, plus covers. Severin illustrated this controversial 2003 Marvel limited series, a lighthearted parallel universe Western that reimagined the Kid as a kitschy gunslinging gay man. Severin, who had drawn the character for Atlas in the 1950s, saying at the time, "The Rawhide Kid is rather effeminate in this story. It may be quite a blow to some of the old fans of Rawhide Kid. But it's a lot of fun." However his generally lackluster compositions show the effects of too many years drawing for Cracked.

From the publisher:

In RAWHIDE KID, "Howard Stern Show" writer Ron Zimmerman and legendary Western comics artist John Severin take aim at the lovable red-headed Western scamp we know as "The Rawhide Kid". What happens when the Rawhide Kid rides into one of those beleaguered Western towns on the edge of nowhere, looking better than any cowboy has a right to? What happens when a gang of desperadoes ride into the same town with the intent of lootin' and pillagin'? What ensues proves that no one handles a hot rod like the Rawhide Kid.
