Billy the Kid Adventure Magazine #5

Billy the Kid tracks down Bat Wheeler, the killer responsible for a murder Billy's been framed for, across a brutal mountain wilderness during a blizzard—with help from an old trapper who knows the terrain and a persistent wolf pack at their heels. As Billy closes in on Wheeler holed up in a mountain cave, he's got to bring the killer back alive to clear his name in Sutter's Corners, no matter what the weather or the odds throw at him. A frontier tale of survival, pursuit, and redemption set against one of the harshest landscapes a man can face.

Billy the Kid stumbles upon a boy named Dodie consumed by fury over his father's death—a man swindled and murdered by the crooked land dealer Fred Bencher. When Dodie's thirst for revenge nearly leads him to cold-blooded killing, Billy intervenes and takes matters into his own hands, orchestrating a confrontation that forces Bencher to face justice in a way Dodie never could have managed alone. It's a tale of how raw vengeance can blind you to better paths, and how sometimes the fastest gun in the West knows when to aim for something more than just pulling a trigger.

Billy the Kid finds himself falsely accused of murdering a banker in Red River, but when a bank safe is blown open the same night he escapes custody, he realizes the real culprit framed him—and he's determined to uncover the truth before the posse catches up with him. With help from unexpected allies and a banker's grieving daughter torn between suspicion and doubt, Billy races to expose the real killer and clear his name.
