Straight Arrow battles the villain Black Feather, who has trapped him on a cliff with an electrified wire. After escaping and defeating Black Feather, Straight Arrow is imprisoned in Fort Lookout Jail. In a separate storyline, Straight Arrow discovers that Apache warriors have raided a settler village and stolen the Redwood Pipe of Peace; he works to intercept the Apaches and recover the sacred artifact before they can use it to inspire raids throughout the territory.

Contains 4 stories
The Return of Black Feather!
9 pp · Western-Frontier

Straight Arrow pursues his most dangerous enemy when Black Feather escapes from Fort Lookout's jail, driven by a murderous thirst for vengeance against both the outlaw and the U.S. Army. Following a trail of destruction across the frontier, Straight Arrow discovers a sinister plot involving stolen dynamite and a cliff rigged for catastrophe. The stage is set for a final, deadly reckoning between hero and villain on Grave-Top Cliff.

The Killers on the Cliffs!
7 pp · Western-Frontier

When Cheyenne scouts led by Red Hawk encounter a deadly ambush in a canyon controlled by cliff dwellers, the tribes clash over a crucial passage—but a carefully laid trap threatens to seal the entire Cheyenne nation inside with no escape. Red Hawk must uncover the secret tunnels beneath the cliffs and fight his way through overwhelming odds to free his people before the dwellers can finish them off. In this seven-page frontier adventure, courage and cunning face off against stone and treachery high above the plains.

The Treasure Coach!
7 pp · Western-Frontier

A clever gang of masked robbers has been preying on the Sundown Valley Stage Line, striking the treasure coach with uncanny precision—but only the manager knows which coach carries the gold. When Straight Arrow discovers the outlaws' ingenious system, he devises a trap using a golden horse to flush out the spy working inside the stage line. Can our masked hero outthink the robbers and shut down their operation before they strike again?
