El Lobo The Man from Nowhere #23

In "Gypsy Town," El Lobo becomes involved with a Colonel and Jesse, a man with a mysterious past, who recruit him for protection against wagons arriving by sundown in a gypsy settlement. When a gambler attempts to betray the group with a sword, El Lobo's wolf companion intervenes, taking a deep wound while El Lobo shoots the weapon from the attacker's hand, forcing the Colonel to acknowledge that if the wolf dies, El Lobo will shoot him instead of the sword.
