The 2000 AD ABC: Badlands

Cowboys versus dinosaurs!

In the aftermath of the American Civil War, renegade gunfighter Theodore Gantry stumbles across the strange-skinned tent of palaeontologist Elmore Bangs in the vast plains of the Wild West.

Created by writer Dan Abnett and artist Kevin Walker, Badlands was a one-and-done, creator-owned, five-part story published in the year 2000 that saw the new world meet the old … real old.
