Was "The Searchers" based on this comic book?
I ask because I picked up an old novel at a garage sale a few years back title "The Searchers", and the summary on the back cover sounds very similar to the storyline in the film. The printing date was between '55-'57 as I recall and was a bookclub edition. There is no mention of the movie, so I did not think that it was a "Based on the film" type of book, but I was curious enough to pick it up. Has anyone else ever seen this?
I can take some pictures, and post some more specific info if anyone is interested.
