Six-Gun Heroes #77

A cavalry troop pursuing Mexican raider Emilio Mendoza gets ambushed by Apaches in the lava beds—trapped without water and cut off from their horses, they're easy prey until the mysterious Gunmaster arrives with a desperate plan. But when the masked gunfighter's warnings go unheeded and the soldiers' situation grows dire, Gunmaster must use an unlikely ally to turn the tide before both the trapped cavalry and the undefended town fall to their enemies.

Wyatt Earp, gravely weakened by illness, must ride a quarter mile down Pinto Flats' main street to Hoban's Hotel while outlaw gunslingers—emboldened by his sickness—set their sights on gunning him down. With the town's fate hanging on his ability to reach his destination, Earp pushes through ambush after ambush, determined to prove that no amount of lead or treachery can stop him. The question becomes not whether he'll make it, but what he's willing to sacrifice to ensure the hardcases that have plagued the town finally answer for their crimes.

Annie Oakley finds herself swept up in a desperate situation when Comanche warriors capture her, a widow named Mary Holmes, and the woman's young son Bobby. Determined to prove she's no ordinary captive, Annie challenges the tribe's warriors—particularly the overconfident Fat Beaver—to tests of horsemanship and marksmanship to change their minds about forcing her into marriage. With her quick wit and genuine skill, she sets out to earn her freedom and protect the family she's sworn to help.
