☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis anthology issue contains two stories: a "Six-Gun Heroes" feature in which Wyatt Earp confronts a tough outlaw gang, with dialogue establishing a conflict where Earp warns them to stop taking insults; and "A Cowboy Called Teddy," a historical narrative about Theodore Roosevelt's 1883 buffalo hunting expedition in the Dakota Badlands, detailing his hunts with guide Joe Ferris and the near-extinction of the buffalo herds by white hide hunters. The issue also advertises additional "Six-Gun Favorites" featuring Lash LaRue, Annie Oakley, and Wild Bill Hickok.
Lash LaRue tracks down escaped convict Jesse Morse and brings him in—but discovers the fugitive has fallen in love with a woman named Ginny, who harbors a devastating secret of her own. When a relentless bounty hunter threatens to complicate matters, Lash must navigate a tangle of hidden truths and unspoken sacrifices that will haunt him long after the dust settles.
A young deputy named Midge learns the hard way what it means to pin on a badge when Wyatt Earp takes him under his wing in the frontier town—and a violent saloon confrontation shows him that lawmen stand apart, with few willing to risk help. Though Midge's resolve holds, Earp knows the lonely truth: a badge means riding a separate road from the rest of the world.
When a smooth-talking con man cheats timid newcomer Jeremiah J. Creswick out of his hardware store investment, Annie Oakley sees potential in the discouraged easterner and offers him a fighting chance. As the railroad's arrival promises to transform Busted Axle, Annie devises a bold plan to level the playing field—one that teaches Creswick that true courage sometimes means standing your ground without a gun.
Wild Bill Hickok flees across the Rio Grande with a sack of cash, only to find himself caught between pursuing Texas law and a gang of Mexican outlaws who want a cut of the loot. As Hickok navigates the dangerous crossing and the desperate men closing in from both sides, he must use his wits and quick draw to survive the deadly game unfolding along the border.
When a hardened rancher named Joshua Brant discovers a young boy sheltered by a Cheyenne woman during a brutal winter storm, he becomes convinced the child is his own son—stolen years ago by Indians. As Brant's hatred threatens to ignite a devastating war against the tribe, Pawnee Bill, the plains scout, races to uncover the truth that might stop him before it's too late. A tense frontier clash between vengeance and compassion that hinges on one boy's true identity.
