About this issue

This frontier adventure serial by Capt. Comstock follows Red Claw (actually Guy Winton), a one-eyed trapper in the Ozark Mountains, and his seventeen-year-old Indian boy companion Chick. The narrative begins with Guy discovering a mysteriously beautiful Indian maiden named Winnihah balanced perilously on a rocky spur; she leaps across a ravine and loses an ornate moccasin. An Osage warrior named Omeeno arrives claiming ownership of Winnihah and demanding the moccasin back, leading Guy to arrange a rendezvous at White River. With Chick providing reconnaissance backup, Guy meets Winnihah and attempts to determine whether she truly loves Omeeno. When Guy approaches what he believes is the waiting Omeeno, he discovers it's merely a dummy—a trap suggesting genuine danger. The story emphasizes action, wilderness survival, and romantic rivalry, ending as an ambush seems imminent.
