Contains 5 stories
The Phantom Attacker
8 pp · western-frontier

When masked men brutally abduct a nester from Hawk Junction and chain him to a boulder as bait for a luminous wildcat, the terrified townspeople begin surrendering their land claims rather than face the phantom beast. Billy the Kid arrives just as the mysterious cat claims another victim, and he's determined to uncover who's orchestrating this reign of terror—but the conspiracy runs deeper and more cunning than a simple land grab scheme. In this tense 1954 western tale, Billy must outmaneuver both the masked conspirators and their trained beast before the entire territory falls under their control.

Man-Hunt
7 pp · western-frontier

Billy the Kid finds himself on the run from Deputy Cass Wallner when he stumbles upon Marge Fulton, a young woman fighting to save her late father's lumber camp from the ruthless land-grabber Hank Mason. Despite the relentless pursuit closing in on him, Billy can't walk away from her desperate situation and takes the job of straw-boss at her camp. When Mason's men sabotage her crucial log shipment, Billy must use all his wits and nerve to break through their blockade and keep Marge's business afloat—all while the man hunting him inches ever closer.

The Kidnappers!
2 pp · humor

Two bumbling crooks nab what they think is a wealthy mark, only to discover their hostage is the spoiled, troublemaking son of a father who'd rather pay them to keep the kid than ransom him back. When the criminals desperately try to return their unwilling charge, Mr. Gotlots ups the ante—demanding they take the boy off his hands for a million dollars instead.

The Saga of the Sun Dance
7 pp · western-frontier

When Billy the Kid saves Chief Thunder Cloud from an Arapaho ambush, he gains shelter with the Comanche tribe—but faces suspicion from Big Elk, a proud warrior who resents the outsider's presence. As the sacred Sun Dance ceremony approaches, Billy trains the young braves in games and skills, earning their respect, while the treacherous Big Elk secretly plots with the Arapahoes to sabotage the gathering. When the enemy launches night raids on the ceremonial site, Billy must convince the assembled Comanche chiefs to stand firm against their ancient rivals.

Facts about the Wild, Wooly, Crazy, Mixed-Up West
2 pp · humor; non-fiction

This lighthearted 1954 feature rounds up a collection of surprising historical and geographical facts about the American West—from Houston's unlikely status as a seaport to the origins of the term "cowboy"—presented with wry humor and comic illustrations. Each bite-sized fact lands with a punchline, mixing genuine trivia with the cartoonist's tongue-in-cheek commentary on regional peculiarities. It's a playful tour through Western lore that proves truth really can be stranger (and funnier) than fiction.
