☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free# Fearless Davy Crockett #3 This issue contains two stories featuring Davy Crockett. In "Forest Runners," evil men who prey on hunters and trappers are causing trouble in the wilderness until Davy Crockett arrives to confront them. "Ben Torton, Trail Blazer" depicts Chief Red Beard recounting to Crockett how his people suffered through a harsh winter with hunger and destroyed crops, and how raging fires burned their corn and wheat, leaving them desperate for food—a crisis that appears to escalate when a Huron hunting party arrives and Ben Torton is captured by them, leading to conflict between the groups.
Young Davy Crockett's hunger to own a legendary Pennsylvania rifle sends him north from the Blue Ridge Mountains on a long journey to find gunsmith Otto Schneider—where he proves his marksmanship and earns the weapon by working furs while the craftsman builds it to perfection. Back on the frontier with his new rifle in hand, Davy finds himself drawn into a shooting match against the boastful Bull Munson at a fair, where the Pennsylvania rifle's precision and his own skill will be put to the test.
Davy Crockett stumbles upon a band of ruthless forest runners preying on honest trappers and hunters, and after driving them off, he decides to camp with the grateful survivors for the night. But Davy's keen eye catches something amiss—one trapper's behavior doesn't sit right—and he must uncover a traitor in their midst before the runners strike again under cover of darkness. A sharp-eyed frontier tale about trust, suspicion, and reading a man's true character.
