Rocky Lane pursues an outlaw bronc named Red Devil through the timberland after the criminal flees on horseback. The outlaw sets a trap with a rope covered in pine needles across the trail, but Rocky anticipates the danger and springs the trap himself, narrowly avoiding the ambush. The issue also includes an informational feature on Black Jack's various hitching posts and saddles used for different types of western riding, detailing the differences between special rigs designed for trick riders, bucking contest saddles, and ornamental parade saddles.

The Big Sale
5 pp · Humor, Western-Frontier

Slim Pickens opens his brand-new hardware store and is immediately put to the test when a customer—who happens to be his friend Ebenezer—stops by to browse. What should be a straightforward sale turns into a battle of wits, as Slim struggles to maintain his patience and newfound honesty while Ebenezer trades quip for quip, turning every transaction into a comedy of errors. It's a lighthearted romp that proves running a business is harder than it looks, especially when your customer is determined to get a rise out of you.

Prairie Revenge
7 pp · Western-Frontier

Rocky Lane thinks he's heading to a relaxation party at a deserted ranch house—until he arrives to find dead jury members and realizes the "party" is a deadly trap set by Red Kavely, the killer he helped put away, who's broken out of prison seeking revenge on everyone responsible for his conviction. With the building rigged with lethal contraptions and Kavely determined to finish what he started, Rocky must use his wits and quick draw to survive the night and stop a hate-filled man bent on murder.

Bronc Fury
7 pp · Western-Frontier

When a ticket seller at a Wild West show proves to be a thieving outlaw named Notch Nugent and his vicious bronc Red Devil, he decides to turn his scheduled stagecoach robbery act into the real thing—prompting Rocky Lane and his stallion Black Jack to pursue him down a dangerous trail. As Nugent sets traps and flees into the timberland, the true test of wills shifts from gunslinger to gunslinger and from horse to horse in a climactic showdown of speed, skill, and raw frontier justice. A classic tale of treachery, quick draws, and the unbeatable bond between a marshal and his legendary mount.

The Good Good-Bye
2 pp · Humor, Western-Frontier

Randy and a young ranch hand named Billy swap tall tales about Billy's notoriously tough boss—a man so fearless he gargles with broken glass and eats barbed wire—until Randy suggests that a reputation for toughness might stem from something far less impressive. When Billy announces he's enlisting in the Army "for the duration of the peace," their comedic war of words reaches an absurd goodbye.
