Wyatt Earp, still reeling from a brutal fight with Crusher Bantree, faces a new threat when the fearsome Morse Bantree arrives in Skull City, vowing revenge for his nephew's defeat.

The Gunmaster, revealed to be the reclusive blacksmith Clay Boone, must escape a collapsing cave after being exposed by a rival who faked an Indian attack to seize gold-rich land.

Annie Oakley returns to Colt City, only to be greeted by the mischievous Tansey brothers, Buck and Chuck, who reappear after years away with a playful, exaggerated courtship act meant to rattle her.
