In "The Rifle Named 'Betsy'," a quiet frontier tension simmers as railroad workers halt construction amid signs of Pawnee attacks. Bill rides out to meet Yellow Feather, his old friend and the tribe’s chief, who pledges peace—though his son, Wild Bear, seems determined to test that promise. With Joe Kubert’s powerful art bringing the rugged landscape and simmering conflict to life, this issue captures the fragile balance of trust on the edge of the American West. The cover by John Prentice perfectly frames the story’s quiet dread.
