“Buffalo Caller”

Dell's Four Color #290 from 1950 brings "Buffalo Caller" to life with a striking Morris Gollub cover depicting a dynamic gathering of Native American figures — a prominently feathered chief at right, warriors in motion, and the warm, firelit tones that give the whole scene an urgent, ceremonial energy. At a dime for 52 pages of all comics, this is a generous package of frontier storytelling, with interior work by writer Gaylord Du Bois and artist Jon Small. A vivid snapshot of Dell's Western output at the dawn of the 1950s.

Once upon a time there was a nearby Pueblo Indian town of stone and brick. One rainy night a Pueblo band sneaked in the Pawnee village and stole the Pawnee's sacred bundle. The next evening, Pawnee Chief Wounded Bear led a band of his braves to attack the Pueblo town and retrieve the sacred bundle, but they were surprised by the Pueblos, and only Wounded Bear escaped. He raised an army, but they found the Pueblo town deserted, but for some corpses. The sacred bundle was missing. The trail was lost, and Pawnee fell ill with the Pueblo sickness.
