Blazing Sixguns #12

In the Lost Valley of strange geysers and prehistoric terrain, the famous scout Bullseye has captured an impossible creature—a living pterodactyl—and enlists a scholar named Book-Larnin' Brody to help him bring it back. But word of the valley's hidden wonders reaches the ears of the ruthless Sparkler and his partner Rifle, who see only diamonds in that remote land and will stop at nothing to claim it for themselves. When the villains strike at Bullseye's camp, the Devil Bird itself becomes an unexpected force in the struggle for survival.

This origin tale reveals how Bullseye became the West's deadliest sharpshooter—raised by his grandfather Deadeye Dick after a massacre claimed his parents, trained in marksmanship from childhood, and marked by a brutal vendetta with the renegade Yellow Snake. When Deadeye falls to treachery, young Bullseye must draw on everything he's learned to face his enemy and the blood debt that binds them together.

When a traveling peddler named Panhandle Pete arrives at a farm in Hardy Grabber's territory, he's turned away by rifle-point—but Pete is actually Bullseye, a masked gunslinger born and raised in the ghost town of Dead Center, now determined to stop Grabber's ruthless land grab. With the help of his elderly friend Long Drink, Bullseye wages a cunning campaign of ghostly tricks against Grabber's men who've occupied the ruins, turning the town's haunted reputation into a weapon against greed and injustice.

Sheriff Shorty Simpson rolls into a dusty frontier town parched and desperate for work, but after a chance encounter with a mysterious undertaker named Planter Porter and a beautiful young woman named Penny, the drifter finds himself caught in a romantic tangle with Penny's jealous suitor, Dean. With Porter's gentle wisdom pushing him toward courage, Shorty must decide whether to stand his ground or ride out of town before sundown—or face Dean's wrath.
