Notes: Just like it says: Wyatt Earp meets Annie Oakley. Now, given that both were historical figures and not purely comic creations, you might think this is just a coincidence, that there is no connection between this Annie and the one who starred in Annie Oakley #1 (Spring 1948) − #4 (Nov 1948) and #5 (Jun 1955 ─ #11, Jun 1956). And it's true that there is no editorial allusion to her being in her own comic. However, she is drawn EXACTLY as in her comic: Long blue skirt, boots, red fringed shirt, white fringed gloves, scarf, blue cowboy hat, and blonde hair.
Gosh, there's STILL cool stuff to discover in Atlas comics! -
