☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis issue contains two stories. "The Witness" follows Kid Montana as he happens upon a bank robbery in progress and becomes an unwilling target of the criminals; pursued by a gang member named Crowe, he must evade capture while hiding evidence of stolen money he discovered. "The Ghost Riders" depicts Kid Montana caught in a nighttime gunfight with armed riders who attack him; he manages to escape but is later ambushed by the same gang, leading to a dramatic confrontation involving a lariat trap and a horse. The issue also includes "Slidell Sheriff: Doc Does His Duty," a text story about Doc Holliday and his efforts to use his intellect rather than his guns to maintain law and order in the Old West.
Kid Montana witnesses a bank robbery in Sunflats and becomes the sole eyewitness against the two outlaws—one already jailed, the other still at large. When the captured robber threatens Montana's life to keep him silent, Kid must navigate the dangerous line between testifying and staying alive while the sheriff hunts down his escaped accomplice. A taut western tale of courage and danger in the face of ruthless criminals.
Cyril Grantvel comes west to the frontier with consumption and a death sentence from his doctor—six months to live at most—but a chance encounter with a rancher's daughter lands him work on the Long T Ranch instead of a quick grave. As he tends sheep on the high slopes alongside a quiet sheepherder, Grantvel discovers that the will to survive may be stronger than any disease, especially when winter, wolves, and isolation test everything he thought he had left to give.
Kid Montana takes a job with the ruthless Trey Landon, only to discover he's joined a gang of night riders terrorizing homesteaders across the valley—burning ranches, dynamiting wells, and driving families from their land. Trapped between Landon's murderous crew and his own conscience, Kid Montana must find a way to stop the destruction without getting himself killed. As the raids escalate and Landon's grip tightens, Kid Montana realizes the only way out is to turn against the very outfit that hired him.
