While Clayton Moore was the physical embodiment of the Lone Ranger, for me and my generation Brace Beemer will always be the Voice of “ .. the daring and resourceful masked rider of the plains leading the never-ending fight for law and order in the early West.” <br />Equally, Tom Gill’s sensitive illustrative portrayal of the Lone Ranger will never be outdone by any of the comic book artists who may follow in his footsteps.Rob Moffatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12888266385710505283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1489622848939498705.post-65293143831673210452013-07-27T03:30:38.567-04:002013-07-27T03:30:38.567-04:00Funny how, as I imagined the Lone Range speaking, ...Funny how, as I imagined the Lone Range speaking, he sounded like Clayton Moore.Daniel [oeconomist.com]https://www.blogger.com/profile/06763094285750736837noreply@blogger.com
