    Default Did the comic books medium create anything truly unique in the Western genre?

    One that does not involve magical or supernatural powers aside from the usual action movie super shooting skills.

    Blueberry by Jean-Michel Charlier and Jean 'Moebius' Giraud

    It's a famous Belgian series, but it's all been translated to English. The main draw is Moebius' artwork.

    Cowboys versus Aliens?
    I think restorative nostalgia is the number one issue with comic book fans.
    A fine distinction between two types of Nostalgia:

    Reflective Nostalgia allows us to savor our memories but accepts that they are in the past
    Restorative Nostalgia pushes back against the here and now, keeping us stuck trying to relive our glory days.

    I would agree with Turok. Native Americans and Dinosaurs is unique.
    There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!
