The Hawk #9
In "Iron Caravan of the Mojave," Matt Baker’s stark, shadow-drenched art brings to life a desert legend where ancient Injun superstition and twisted white man’s sorcery collide in the heart of the Mojave. With Baker handling both pencils and inks—his signature style lending every panel a gritty, haunting weight—this 1954 St. John thriller captures the tension of a lone caravan facing unseen dangers across a merciless landscape. The cover, also by Baker, mirrors the story’s eerie atmosphere with its stark, shadowed figures and looming threat.
