The Lone Ranger #108

In "Hostages of the Crows," Young Hawk and Little Buck press on through the Yucatan, reaching the Gulf of Campeche, where they intervene to free an Indian named Ixtlan from a pack of wild "Chulas"—creatures that prove both dangerous and mysterious. Written by Gaylord Du Bois and illustrated by Rex Maxon, this 1957 adventure blends frontier peril with the quiet intensity of survival, all rendered with the crisp detail that defines the Dell Lone Ranger series. The cover by Hank Hartman captures the moment’s tension in bold, striking lines.
