Black Fury #42

In "Black Fury Captured," the legendary horse Black Fury becomes the prize in a dangerous hunt after rancher Harve Logan offers a $1,000 reward for his capture. Old-timers Morg and Jace, eager to prove their worth to younger, skeptical cowhands, track him down—only to find the horse weakened by a rattlesnake bite and tend to his wounds. When they learn Logan’s true intent isn’t breeding, but execution, their loyalty shifts in a quiet, powerful moment of choice.

In "Trail To Death," Eagle Plume, a proud breeder of buffalo horses, finds his dream of taming the legendary Black Fury tested when the wild stallion becomes both a challenge and a lifeline. After being shot by angry cowboys and nearly left for dead, Plume is saved by Fury, who leads him to a secret watering hole known only to the herd. Moved by the act, Plume renounces his hunt, forging a bond with the horse he once sought to capture.

In "The Killer Colt," Black Fury, the proud leader of a wild horse herd, faces a painful test of leadership when his young colt’s growing violence turns against the herd—first his mother, then his peers, and finally the king himself. After a near-fatal fall in the stream leaves the colt injured, Fury’s concern is clear, but as they emerge from the water, the bond is broken—there’s no turning back, and the colt is banished.
