Doc Holliday was the Robin to Wyatt Earp’s Batman; by his side whenever the going got tough, pistol in hand, ready to go out in a blaze of glory. Their friendship became a legendary tale of the Wild West, depicted in many books and westerns.
Holliday didn’t necessarily act this way out of sheer bravery or an undying sense of loyalty, but for a more tragic reason - he knew that he was a doomed man, anyway. Stricken with tuberculosis from an early age, before he even met Wyatt Earp, Holliday understood that he was living on borrowed time, so he chose to live it like a man with nothing to lose. In the process, he became one of the greatest icons of the Wild West.
