T-Man was first published in September 1951, by Quality Comics, the run continued until the company folded in 1956.

It has the claim to fame of probably being the only comic book ever that featured a U.S. Treasury agent as its hero. T-Man was also a classic anti-communist title.

In the 1920s and 1930s, FBI agents were colloquially referred to as 'G-Man', being a shortened version of 'Government man'. Soon 'T-Man' became used for a Treasury Department official.

T-Man's name was Pete Trask and he also appeared on the back pages of Police Comics. The T-Man title ran for 38 issues until Quality Comics went out of business. When DC Comics acquired the rights to Quality's characters Pete Trask as T-Man was one of the titles they decided to discontinue.

Billy the Kid is a Western comic book series published by Charlton Comics, with stories of a fictional character based on the historical Billy the Kid. Taking over the numbering of a previous Western comic, Masked Raider, Billy the Kid was published from issues #9-153 (Nov. 1957 – March 1983). 
The Billy the Kid character made his first appearance in Masked Raider #6.

Regular contributors to the title included writer Joe Gill, and artists Pat Boyette, José Delbo, Jack Keller, Sanho Kim, Rocke Mastroserio, Charles Nicholas, Warren Sattler, and Carl Wessler.

The book’s first five issues (June 1955 – Aug. 1956) were titled Masked Raider (not to be confused with the Timely Comics character), starring a masked gunfighter and his pet golden eagle Talon. 
With issue #6 the book was titled Masked Raider Presents Billy the Kid. 
This title lasted three issues, through cover-date July 1957. With issue #9, the full cover title was 
Billy the Kid: Western Outlaw, lasting through issue #37.

Billy the Kid was twice put under publication hiatus, first between #121 and #122 (Jan.–Aug. 1977), and then from #123 to #124 (Nov. 1977–Feb. 1978).
 From that point the end of the run, Billy the Kid was a reprint title.
