For a long time quality material like this hasnt been available for kids in the UK, and speaking as someone that grew up devouring comics from the newsagent I seriously hope that Frontier and all of the new Print Media books find their way into the right hands, whether it be through the high street, school libraries or Stan Lee buying a truck-full and handing them out himself. If comics are going to be taken more seriously in the UK then we need books like Frontier to appear before impressionable young minds. Starburst May 2012 An absolutely fascinating read in the world of make believe. Or is this true?!? Did this comic capture the history of the Wild West in 1866? A strange western tale that catches your imagination and will be loved by boys and the grown up kids lurking inside men who loved comics during their youth! Reviewed on WhatsGoodToDo.com May 2012
