☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join free# Straight Arrow This issue contains two stories: "The Man Who Looked for Trouble," in which Straight Arrow investigates a young man named Jim Carter who is drawn into dangerous situations, discovering answers to questions about his identity and the nature of trouble itself; and "Red Hawk," featuring a Native American hunter who becomes the hunted during a time of famine, attempting to prove his innocence while being pursued. The issue also includes advertisements for mail-order novelties such as a live sea circus kit and kissing dolls.
Straight Arrow and his golden stallion Fury spot a runaway locomotive hurtling down a treacherous grade with a dead engineer at the controls, and the young warrior must board the speeding iron horse to prevent it from plunging off a cliff. When outlaws threaten to derail the railroad being built to Indian Gulch, Straight Arrow teams up with the railroad crews to hunt down the renegades and protect the new line. With cunning strategy and his trusted steed, he battles to ensure the iron horse completes its inaugural run to town.
When a prospector is murdered with one of Straight Arrow's distinctive gold-tipped arrows, the great Comanche warrior finds himself hunted by soldiers—but the real killer is the escaped outlaw Mort Black, who's framing him for revenge. Knowing only the truth will clear his name, Straight Arrow must track the killer across treacherous terrain while evading both the law and Black's deadly traps, in this tale of relentless pursuit and cunning survival from *The Gunfighters* #15.
A young ranchman named Jim Carter is desperate to prove his nerve to the girl he loves, and he throws himself into increasingly dangerous situations—taking on an outlaw alone, stopping a runaway stage loaded with explosives—all to show he's no coward. Straight Arrow watches from the shadows, puzzled by Carter's reckless behavior, until the real test comes when a rabid coyote threatens the girl and Carter must finally put his courage where his mouth is. Sometimes bravery comes in the smallest packages.
Red Hawk is branded a thief and banished from his tribe after stolen ponies mysteriously appear in his herd, but he suspects the real culprits are wearing the dog-head crest of a Crow warrior he once saved—and he's determined to prove his innocence by uncovering the truth. Racing against time and suspicion, Red Hawk must track down his mysterious benefactor and expose the men with dog faces before his tribe's judgment becomes final.
