One Panel #779: Spurred On!

From Vigilante: "The Feud of Rimfire Ridge" by Mort Meskin and Charles Paris, Action Comics #57 (February 1943)

When you bring a cowboy character forward to the present day (1943) as a "superhero" (or mystery man), everything we think of when we think of cowboys comes into play in a different way. Spurs are used in horse riding, but as "superhero gear", it can now be used in more unusual ways, such as sticking to a tree while he does trapeze tricks.

But honestly, I'm more interested in the tiny, tiny bird who is so astonished wayyyyyy in the background.

One of the weirdest things about reading old Action issues is how long Vigilante (among other largely forgotten characters) shared it with Superman. Clark always got the cover and the lead story, but those other regulars must have been helping sales or they'd never have stuck around so long.
