The Legend of Calamity Jane debuted in September 1997 (Warner Bros. Studios) as an Old West–themed animated series appearing on its Kids‘ WB slate of children‘s programming. A co-production of Warner Bros. TV Animation with France-based Gangster Production, Contre-Allée, and Canal+, and set in and around Deadwood, South Dakota, in the 1870s, it presented a heavily fictionalized, heavily stylized take on the life and times of the real-life Martha Jane Canary, a gunslinging, bullwhip-toting cowgirl who was famously known around the world as “Calamity Jane.”

X-men Novelist pens the NEW The Legend of Calamity Jane: The Devil Herself
This new action-packed horseback-straddling revolver-holstering adventure puts sexy back in the reigns of Calamity Jane in a brand-new 28-page, full-color comic revival written by Steven A. Roman (X-Men: The Chaos Engine Trilogy, Final Destination: Dead Man’s Hand) and illustrated and colored by Eliseu Gouveia (Stargate Universe: Back to Destiny, Lorelei: Sects and the City) finds Jane on the hunt for a stolen relic: a gun that belonged to her old friend Wild Bill Hickok. But more surprising than the identity of the gun’s current owner—a series villain from her past—is the even bigger mystery. How can Calamity Jane still be alive today and not look a day older than she did in the 1870s? One great DVD box set, TWO ways to own it, and ONE BRAND NEW Calamity Jane comic adventure that picks up directly after the events of the series animation. It’s what every Wild West fan needs for their collections.
