Written by Ross Martin and illustrated by W. M. Allison, the story follows Tim Walsh as he investigates stolen cattle on the Warbucks ranch, uncovering a scheme involving rebranding and a tense capture that leads to a dramatic rescue. The cover by Martin Filchock captures the action with bold, period-accurate flair.
In a lighthearted 1938 tale from Little Giant Comics #1, a stranded ship's crew faces a strike, leaving passengers stranded until Annie steps in—unbelievably hauling the anchor free with ease. The story’s playful twist turns a moment of frustration into a burst of whimsical strength, all in just one page.
In "Rustlers From Saw Tooth," Tim Walsh takes on a dangerous assignment at the Warbucks ranch after several hands vanish and cattle go missing. When he overhears the foreman Breen planning another theft, Tim follows the rustlers only to be captured just as they prepare to mark the stolen steers—only to be rescued in time by Warbucks and his men.
In "Cop Killer," Frenchy plays the part of a reformed man, but the truth is far darker—he's a cold-blooded killer who strikes without remorse. When Sergeant Ryan greets him with a friendly slap, the sudden motion triggers a long-hidden wound from his murder of Detective Higgins, forcing a confession that shatters the illusion of his redemption.
In the heart of a forgotten arena, Diana faces a fearsome beast while Jack, ever the daring hero, swings in on a sash to save her. With quick thinking and a daring move, he sets loose the other creatures, turning the tide as they make their escape into the unknown.
