# Manhunt #6 This issue contains two distinct stories. "The Scarlet Rider of the Northlands" follows a mountie pursuing a criminal through the Canadian wilderness, involving a rescue of a drowning man and a confrontation with a red fox and a character named Hank Vickers, while a woman named Lili LaPlatte watches from the cabin. The second story features a space patrol crew whose ship warps into another dimension; they attempt to use a ray cannon to destroy pursuing alien craft and crash-land on an alien planet. A third storyline involves Black Dan Murray, a naval officer, who is identified as a spy stealing information; he is rescued at sea by a woman, leading to complications involving betrayal and a character named Spaleen.

When Space Ace Jet Black and his young patrol partner Jak Tal encounter a mysterious disc-shaped vessel during a routine orbit, they're met with a devastating purple beam that cripples their ship—and a silent, hostile presence that defies all their usual methods of contact. Armed only with a handshake buzzer whose vibrations prove unexpectedly effective as a weapon, the two future lawmen must devise an audacious plan to stand against an invading force far more advanced than anything the space patrol has faced. It's a desperate gambit where cunning and improvisation become their only hope against overwhelming odds.
