Frontier Western #3

In "Lightning Strikes Twice!", a small frontier town grapples with prejudice when the doctor treats Dull Knife, an injured Native American friend of Ringo, after a stagecoach robbery. Facing pressure from townsfolk who demand he stop aiding non-whites, the doctor leaves—but returns when the town’s worst offenders, Wyatt and Spanner, fall ill with the red plague. With the cure stolen during the robbery, the truth unravels as the culprits confess, pointing to Sam Yates. The story unfolds with quiet courage and moral clarity, setting the stage for a fragile but hopeful shift in the town’s spirit.

In "Lawman!", former lawman Clay Borden trades his badge for a life of hog farming with his brother Fred, seeking peace after three years of bringing order to Butte County. But when outlaw Nitch Crawford and his gang seize control of the town, and Crawford personally attacks Clay’s family by stealing his hogs and shooting Fred, Clay must answer the call once more—returning to face the man who shattered his quiet life.

In "Indian Attack!", a scout’s urgent warning sets the fort on edge—Cherokee warriors are seen in full war paint, dancing wildly. While the colonel prepares for battle, Sagamore rides out to investigate, his calm skepticism leading him to witness the truth: the dance is a celebration, not a threat. When he returns with the chief to explain, the colonel must confront his own assumptions and lead his men toward peace.

In "Rampage!", tensions flare in the frontier town when Ben Winters fires Moose from the sawmill, sparking a violent confrontation. When Moose and two others try to settle the score by attacking Ben, Billy steps in to defend him, drawing the line in the dust.

In the dusty town of Fargo Falls, the air crackles with tension as word spreads that Joe Mungo—wanted for robbery and murder—is coming. The sheriff and his deputies brace for a bloodbath, but when Mungo finally arrives, he’s not with a gun, but a white flag, weary and ready to surrender. His quiet plea—tired of being hunted like a beast—leaves the town stunned, wondering what kind of man walks into his own end with such a quiet defiance.
