Masked Ranger #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThe Masked Ranger faces off against "The Wolf," a two-gun killer whose gang has cornered the sheriff on the hot desert sands, in a story titled "Duel to the Death." A second story, "Warpath!!", depicts the Masked Ranger riding through burning territory to warn settlers of a Pawnee war party and a death trap that has been set for them. A third story, "Turnabout Hero," shows a timid man who gains unexpected courage and confronts bank robbers, earning admiration from the townspeople despite his previous reputation as a coward.
The sheriff lies dying in the desert after a brutal ambush by the Wolf and his escaped convict gang, and the Masked Ranger arrives just in time to learn of the danger heading for Hilltown. When the outlaws strike the town bank and take a hostage, the Ranger must track them to their hideout in the hills—but outnumbered and alone, he'll need all his wits and the help of his faithful dog Thunder to bring them to justice. "Duel to the Death" is a tale of quick thinking and nerves of steel as the masked lawman faces off against the deadliest killer in the territory.
When shots and screams erupt from a cavalry massacre, the Crimson Avenger—Victor Kincaid, a Sioux warrior—discovers a shocking truth: one of his own people, Black Fox, has orchestrated the slaughter in a scheme with a corrupt Army sergeant to seize silver-rich tribal lands. After exposing the treachery and defeating Black Fox in ritual combat, the Crimson Avenger must race against time to stop the renegade's final revenge attack on Fort Wayne before it ignites a war between nations.
The Masked Ranger and his Wonder Dog Thunder find themselves trapped between hostile Pawnee war parties and a besieged stage station—but when the ranger breaks through enemy lines to alert the cavalry, a crucial discovery emerges: someone has deliberately stirred up the peaceful tribe with firewater to cover a raid on a government gold shipment. Racing against time and an unknown saboteur, the Masked Ranger must expose the true architect of the attack before peace on the frontier is lost forever.
Wes Kincaid is the most admired lawman in Mesa Gulch, credited with incredible feats of marksmanship and bravery—but only his sweetheart Sally Tucker knows the shameful truth: his reputation is built on pure luck and coincidence, and he's terrified of gunplay. When Wes finally resolves to confess everything and reclaim his honest name, a series of unexpected confrontations keep thrusting him into the spotlight, making it impossible to set the record straight. As the town's adoration grows, Wes faces an impossible choice between his integrity and the pedestal he never wanted to stand on.
