☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis issue contains two stories featuring adventures of Buffalo Bill in the Old West. "The Six-Gun Printer" follows Ned Turner, owner of a stagecoach line and newspaper editor who prints news of crimes before they happen, allowing him to trap criminals—Buffalo Bill must stop Turner's criminal scheme. "Concealed Cargo" depicts Buffalo Bill escorting a wagon train of white settlers through Cheyenne territory while carrying a concealed death-trap meant for an enemy, leading to conflict with Native Americans and encounters with rival fighter Jim Bridger who pursues Buffalo Bill across the frontier.
In the lawless days of the early frontier, unscrupulous trader Dick Williams supplies Sioux Indians with weapons and whiskey, sparking a wave of raids—including the theft of Army horses. When General Carr calls on Buffalo Bill to track down the missing stock, he uncovers Williams's scheme and a dangerous alliance with the renegade Yellow Dog. Outnumbered and captured, Buffalo Bill must use his wits to escape, reunite with a cavalry patrol, and outmaneuver his enemies before Williams and Yellow Dog can strike a devastating blow.
Ned Turner, hard-riding owner of the Turner Stage Coach Line, faces an unusual criminal mastermind—the Six-Gun Printer, a killer who prints detailed accounts of his crimes before committing them. When Turner discovers the method behind the madness, he and his partner Hank race to intercept the outlaw's next planned strike and finally bring the criminal to justice.
Buffalo Bill escorts a wagon train of settlers through dangerous Cheyenne territory, but discovers that one of the newly joined wagons isn't what it seems—it's carrying a hidden cargo of guns meant for the very Indians threatening his journey. When a young woman named Ann Shapley stumbles upon the deception, she's taken captive by the renegades, forcing Buffalo Bill and his scout ally Pawnee Bill to mount a daring rescue before the conspirators can complete their treacherous scheme.
In the wild mountain country where Jim Bridger earned his fearless reputation as a trapper and fighter, the skilled scout finds himself caught between duty and his independent ways when General Dodge recruits him as chief scout for the 1865 Powder River Expedition against the Sioux. Armed with his keen knowledge of Indian lore and tactics, Bridger must read the signs of an ambush and rally the troops to turn the tide of one of the West's greatest Indian battles. With pencils by Weltman, this tale captures the grit and cunning that made Jim Bridger a legend across thousands of miles.
