Script Ray BaileyPencils Ray BaileyInks Ray Bailey

When Bruce Gentry arranges a flying lesson with Señorita Cortez to catch her off guard about her connection to saboteurs wrecking Southern Cross airliners, both pilot and passenger find themselves with more questions than answers. Rifle fire brings their plane down in a storm, forcing Bruce to carry an injured Eden to shelter at a remote house—where a well-meaning caretaker mistakes them for the owners and leaves them alone together. As the night deepens and Eden's questions grow more personal, Bruce must navigate the dangerous game of trust he started, while enemies close in on their location.

"Holiday" Delight

Script Ray BaileyPencils Ray BaileyInks Ray Bailey

Bruce Gentry's plane crashes during a storm in South America, leaving him and a passenger stranded at a remote house—only to discover the place is actually owned by Holiday, a sharp-witted woman who sees right through the passenger's suspicious behavior. As Bruce and his companions search for answers about the crash and a missing friend, they find themselves caught between Holiday's no-nonsense charm and a deepening mystery involving armed pursuers and hidden trucks in the jungle.

Truckin' and Jive

Script Ray BaileyPencils Ray BaileyInks Ray Bailey

Bruce Gentry and his companion Ricardo stumble onto a hidden cache of U.S. Army trucks in South America that someone has gone to great lengths to conceal—trucks that just happen to match the location where Bruce's plane was shot down. As Bruce and Ricardo investigate the mysterious operation, they're captured by armed guards, but a sudden turn of events leaves them free to uncover just what kind of scheme is really going on.

The Butchering Brute
5 pp · Western-Frontier

When a notorious Tombstone bartender named Frank Leslie kills a man over a woman and flees into the Arizona Territory, he finds himself hunted by both a determined avenger and the law itself. Desperate and on the run with the dead man's widow at his side, Leslie's attempts to hide in the remote hills only draw closer the very justice he's been evading. "The Butchering Brute" is a raw frontier tale of crime and consequences set against the lawless 1880s.
