The main story features Sheriff Luke Spade and Doc Eaton confronting outlaw Reb Stuart, who has stolen guns from the gunsmith's shop and is attempting to rob the bank with help from Wabash Jones; the sheriff and his deputies engage in a shootout to stop the robbery. The issue also includes "A Lawyer's Lesson," a text story about attorney Gerald K. Philbin in 1874 Darlington, who becomes embroiled in a dispute between homesteader Dave Pason and cattle baron Ed Lewis when Lewis's stampeding herd is mysteriously diverted by a flaming trench dug on Pason's land, with the sheriff ultimately suspecting arson. Additional stories advertised on the cover include "The Terror Twins," "Hair-Trigger Lawman," and "The Killer Was Scared."
The Lassen Twins, notorious troublemakers, confront Sheriff Luke Spade upon his return to Tombstone after a month away, threatening him with violence. Spade calmly reminds them they had a chance to leave peacefully, and when they refuse, he swiftly subdues both brothers with unexpected martial arts skill, ending their reign of chaos.
Sheriff Luke Spade returns to the gunsmith’s shop to pick up his second revolver, unaware that Reb Stuart and his gang are watching, planning to exploit the fact that Spade left one gun behind. When Spade is forced into a tense standoff with Stuart at the bank, he realizes too late that the gun he was given may not be reliable — but the real twist lies in the gunsmith’s unexpected role in the game of deception.
In the rugged terrain of the Mesa, Sheriff Luke Spade confronts Tony Vale, a former bookkeeper turned fugitive, after Vale escapes prison and wounds a deputy. As Spade tries to reason with him, he begins to suspect that something deep in Vale’s past—linked to a brutal prison guard named Morgan—transformed the once-timid man into a desperate outlaw.
Rocky Lane confronts two armed claim-jumpers who have attacked Jake Masters, a man he believes is injured and alone. With his guns taken and no way to fight back in the open, Rocky relies on his wits and his loyal black stallion, Black Jack, to outmaneuver the outlaws in the treacherous mine tunnels.
In the dusty streets of Tombstone, Sheriff Luke Spade pursues Mike Munro, a man once thought reformed, now on the run after a violent robbery at the Tombstone Finance Company. With the help of Munro’s daughter, Mona, who secretly aids the sheriff despite her loyalty to her father, the chase leads to a tense showdown where past betrayals and desperate choices come to light.
