When a series of kidnappings rocks Cowtown, Cowpital City sends help. But as Marshall Moo Montana steps off the train, he finds more trouble than he was looking for. Mayor Bulloney’s announcement of a tax hike hasn’t gone down like a cold glass of Lily Bovine's Sarsaparilla. But the Mayor appeases the crowd by pointing out Moo and promising that the Marshall will capture the kidnapper. Can Marshall Moo Montana find the kidnapped populace? And what dirty swine is abducting the good folks of Cowtown? 

Here's all the info from Oni Press:

WRITTEN BY MATT HOTSON

THE WILD WEST IS ABOUT TO GET EVEN WILDER! Based on the classic animated series and the red-hot line of toy collectibles, the C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa are back and set to ride toward an all-new showdown on the frontier from rising star writer Matt Hotson (Power Rangers: The Return) and blockbuster artist Juan Gedeon (DC: The Jurassic League)! 

 

Before he takes the badge, ride into the lawless border town of Moo Mesa as we meet Marshal Moo Montana in his earliest adventure! In a time gripped by fear and uncertainty, disorder pervades the desert, and its citizens have started to go missing—including Moo’s former mentor, the respected Sheriff Mary Quine. With shadows growing across the mesa, Moo must navigate old grudges, new alliances, and a conspiracy that reaches deep into the heart of the mesa’s past.

When the Great Comet created the Grand Cownyon, it also tore apart families. Sheriff Marey Quine was a simple animal, enjoying a life without crime and the need to keep the peace. But the Great Comet didn't change her son. Now, as Marshall Moo Montana searches beneath Cowtown for his former mentor, he knows why Dark Horse abducted the townspeople. What horrors will Dark Horse unleash next by experimenting with shards of the Great Comet? And will Moo find the sage mare who taught him to respect the Code of the West?

Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa #2 Preview

 

COVER A BY JUAN GEDEON

 

With so many folks in Cowtown going missing, Marshall Moo Montana wants to tamp down their fears. When Buffalo Bull wants to form a posse, Moo cautions, "If you go looking for trouble, you might just be the trouble." And when Deputy Terrorbull gets ripsnortin' mad that he's not the new Sheriff in Marey Quire's absence, the Marshall tells him, "If you aren't in control of your emotions, then you shouldn't be in control of anything." But with Mayor Bulloney threatening to raise taxes on his dwindling population, can Marshall Moo Montana do more than quote from The Code of the West?

(Cue the chirping cricket).

When a series of kidnappings rocks Cowtown, Cowpital City sends help. But as Marshall Moo Montana steps off the train, he finds more trouble than he was looking for. Mayor Bulloney’s announcement of a tax hike hasn’t gone down like a cold glass of Lily Bovine's Sarsaparilla. But the Mayor appeases the crowd by pointing out Moo and promising that the Marshall will capture the kidnapper. Can Marshall Moo Montana find the kidnapped populace? And what dirty swine is abducting the good folks of Cowtown? Let's pull on our boots, leap into Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa #1, and see!

 

Story

Mayor Bulloney may have greeted Marshall Moo Montana with a smile. But when they reach the Sheriff’s office, he confides that he didn’t request help. Instead, the authorities in Cowpital City imposed Moo on him. Nor does Deputy Terrorbull want Moo there. In the Sheriff’s absence, Terrorbull wants to take charge. Moo urges Bulloney and Terrorbull to remain calm while they investigate the mysterious disappearances.

 

Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa #1 reveals the history of Moo Mesa. Matt Hotson explains how some of the animals roaming wild and free in the Grand Cownyon gained intelligence, while others did not. Moreover, it reveals how Moo Montana became the calm, thoughtful Marshal he is today. The debut issue introduces a host of colorful characters, including Lily Bovine, Cody Calf, Jack Rabbit, and Buffalo Bill. It also portrays differing approaches to leadership and how those who seek power may wield it unwisely.

 

Marshall Moo Montana faces a difficult task in Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa #1. He will face a superior adversary. Yet perhaps the most onerous aspect of the case is how personal it is for him. Not only does he know one of the kidnapping victims, but she also helped him become the Marshall he is today. And as Moo investigates her disappearance, he must work alongside Deputy Terrorbull, who reminds him of a time when he was fueled by bluster and anxious for recognition of his importance.

 

Art

A giant bovine, carved by either the elements or by hooves, rises amid a red rock canyon. While Moo Montana sets cans atop a wooden beam, Sheriff Marey Quine leans against the fence. Moo looks sullen while Marey smiles. But her features grow stern as she whips out her golden gun and shoots. As Juan Gedeon reduces the pair to silhouettes, a ram drives his frightened donkey to the breaking point. But it's his wooden wagon that breaks after it somersaults. And the spinning objects that hurtled after it become rascally armadillos wielding red revolvers.

 

Moo Montana reclines in the plush, upholstered cabin as the train pulls into Cowtown. After debarking to collect his horse, Moo strides through the dirt street between brown, wood-frame buildings. The Marshal’s orange slacks and green shirt show off his muscles. His blonde hair peeks out from his brown hat as a mouse hands him a newspaper. Carlos Cabrera applies a loaded palette of vibrant colors to Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa #1. Yet the longhorn Deputy’s muscular hide glows like a red-hot poker, as Terrorbull stands atop a wooden platform. Beside him, the well-dressed Mayor clutches a megaphone.

 

Amid battles, high-speed pursuits, rabblerousing, and tense confrontations, Jeff Powell fills white balloons with black, uppercase dialogue. The words grow bold for intonation, and balloon shapes grow spiky with intensity. While sound effects accompany snoozing, train whistles blowing, and bovine escapades, a newspaper headline turns Moo’s first day in Cowtown into a rude awakening. Thanks to Oni Press for providing a review copy.

 

Final Thoughts

Everyone needs rules to live by. For Marshall Moo Montana, it's the Code of the West. He understands the high spirits that drive people to take the law into their hands. A society that protects the downtrodden and fosters fairness requires a cool head and an adherence to the Code. That's what he'll try to communicate to the citizens of Cowtown, as Marshall Moo Montana searches for his missing mentor in Wild West C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa #1.

 

Rating 9.8/10
