In "The Gas Mask Disaster," Bill finds himself entangled in a tense encounter with Ted Cameron, a man whose interest in a remote round-up camp masks a far more dangerous agenda. With Dawn caught in the middle, the uneasy visit quickly turns into a mystery where trust is as scarce as clear air. Written and illustrated by Everett Blake—handling every aspect of the interior art—this 1940 Curtis premium comic delivers a taut, early adventure with a touch of intrigue. The cover by Chuck Mazoujian captures the moment’s suspense in bold, striking detail.

In a dusty frontier town, Bill Target crosses paths with the enigmatic Ted Cameron, who claims to be merely accompanying Dawn on a visit to a round-up camp—though his real interest lies in securing valuable mining claims. As tensions simmer beneath the surface, the arrival of Cameron stirs unease, especially with the likes of Blackbeard Hurston and Tony already lurking in the shadows.
