☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis issue contains two stories: "Chief Roman Nose" tells of a gigantic Indian warrior protected by a sacred war bonnet that makes him impossible to kill, until General Sheridan devises "The Bloody Battle of Beecher's Island" to defeat him. "Buffalo Bill and the Ghost of Daniel Boone" features Buffalo Bill investigating gold shipment robberies orchestrated by white outlaws and renegade Cheyenne Indians led by the evil Chief Black Kettle, with the supernatural aid of Daniel Boone's ghost, while a beautiful girl spy and the mystical Grey Wolf assist in uncovering the conspiracy and capturing the culprits.
When Kit Carson is captured by Pawnee warriors who believe his "medicine" will make him a powerful god, Buffalo Bill must infiltrate their camp and outwit the tribe's medicine man in a battle of wits and illusions. Using nothing but clever tricks and quick thinking, Bill stages an elaborate display of "white magic" to prove his power is greater—all to secure Kit's freedom and avoid an all-out war. It's a high-stakes game of bluff and spectacle on the frontier, where showmanship becomes the only weapon that matters.
When a fearless Cheyenne warrior named Roman Nose—whose sacred war bonnet supposedly renders him invincible—terrorizes the frontier with devastating raids, Major Forsythe devises an unconventional strategy to stop him, assembling a small force of frontiersmen to fight on the Indians' own terms. As the conflict escalates toward a climactic battle at Beecher's Island, Forsythe must outthink a legendary opponent whose reputation may be his greatest weapon. This tale of strategy, superstition, and survival pits two commanders of very different worlds against each other in a struggle for control of the territory.
When gold shipments vanish along the frontier and an inside traitor feeds information to outlaws and renegade Cheyenne, Buffalo Bill takes on a dangerous assignment that leads him to Stone Falls—and a mysterious female agent named Sally Adams. As Bill closes in on the conspiracy led by the ruthless Rufe Denton and Chief Black Kettle, he and Sally find themselves captured and facing certain death, until an otherworldly figure rises from the flames to lend a hand: the ghost of Daniel Boone himself.
When the treacherous Dekotah medicine man Black Moon uses dark magic to enslave Grey Wolf and turn him against his own people, the peaceful Kiowa face annihilation—and only Princess White Dove and the loyal wolf Lobo stand between the tribe and disaster. As Black Moon's sinister spells threaten to destroy everything Grey Wolf holds dear, a desperate struggle unfolds to break the curse before it's too late. Manny Stallman brings this tale of witchcraft and tribal warfare to vivid life in "The Terror Demon of the Dekotahs."
