“Annie Oakley” began in January 1954 as a TV series starring Gail Davis as Annie,
Jimmy Hawkins as her kid brother Tagg, and Brad Johnson as Sheriff Lofty Craig.
Gene Autry’s Flying A produced 81 episodes through 1957.
Altho there had been an Annie Oakley comic book from Atlas (Marvel) in ‘48, it naturally bore no resemblance to and was not authorized by Autry’s Flying A. Gene already had a working relationship with Dell to publish his own comic book as well as RANGE RIDER,
so Dell quickly adapted ANNIE OAKLEY AND TAGG to comic form in early ‘54 with Four Color #438 and FC#481, although neither had photo covers nor did the artwork much resemble Davis and Hawkins…nor was Johnson as Lofty present in these first two issues.
